    The 2026 documentary film Robots is a compelling, character-driven South African feature that explores life at the busy traffic intersections of Johannesburg—a city where these intersections are locally known as "robots". The documentary follows the transient economy of street performers, hawkers, and dancers who seize fleeting moments of opportunity when cars halt at red lights. The film centers on a performer named Gift (also known as "Marshmallows") who performs the striking "Headless Man" act. Away from the roadside, the documentary delves into his private reality as a husband and father, capturing the resilience and uncertainty of survival on the city's margins. It gained critical acclaim on the festival circuit, including a Special Mention for Best Edited South African Feature Documentary at the Encounters South African International Documentary Festival and screenings at the Joburg Film Festival.

      Hameedias, an established clothing brand celebrates life this festive season through the power of family and celebration in their latest campaign. We worked together to create a captivating story about the diversity in life and how it is brought together during the national celebration of Eid & Avurudu in Sri Lanka. We aimed to stitch the brand into the the story so that whenever people saw Hameedia, they would remember the story. And whenever they thought of the story, they remember what Hameedia stood for. This relationship between the brand and the story is what the goal of this campaign was to Hameedias loyal customer base. Through a simple palette of colours and techniques, we showcased the speediness of life through the shots and building up to the slowed down moments, we all wish to relive with our loved ones.
