A few weeks ago, we were on location with Mads Mikkelsen in the role of Le Fantôme, the new short film for the Ford Edge, shot in Croatia. When I say ‘short film’, it is an 8 minute long story – quite unique in car advertising terms – featuring the StarWars/ Marvel/ James Bond Scandi-Baddie […]

We had a very varied few days – from shooting aerial drone video before the crowds descended, to evening shoots with very special cars from Mercedes-Benz Museum Stuttgart (a pair of W196 F1 and W25) and JPS Lotus (under wraps at the moment, so […]
