For this music video, I edited a concept built on one image: a bright orange prison jumpsuit in a muted, confined world. My job was to make the cut carry the story from confinement to release. I cut on the beat to lock picture to rhythm, used pacing to build tension through the verses, and let the edit open up in the final chorus as the visuals move toward freedom. I used match cuts and whip transitions to move between spaces, and a colour grade that starts cool and desaturated, then lifts to warm tones as the character breaks free

This storytelling is amazing
For TechEx Events we created the aftermovie of the event in the RAI Amsterdam
We had a great time being part of the event and capturing everything happening throughout the day. From the talks and conversations to all the little moments in between.
Always fun to bring an event like this to life through video.

Product image to video AI: how we turn one product photo into a video ad
Most e-commerce clients have great product photos and no video. Here is the 4-step flow we use with a product image to video AI generator:
1. Add the product: paste the product URL or upload a clean photo
2. Pick the format: animate the image, clone a proven ad structure, or UGC style
3. Generate the script: hook, solution, feature, CTA in about 15 seconds
4. Generate the video: 9:16 for TikTok/Reels, 1:1 for feed
What makes it look real: a sharp photo, gentle motion, and the product on screen in the first second. Make 3 or 4 versions and let the ad results pick the winner.
