LIONS SERIES
South Africa 2021
Sky Creative Agency invited pitched concepts for the Lions Series : South Africa 2021. Historically, Sky Sports have always gone big for this tour of the Southern Hemisphere, which is the highlight in their Rugby calendar every four years. Of the three creative routes I proposed with gotgotneed, this epic concept offered the greatest ambition and technical challenge, so it was a fantastic opportunity to write Creative, Direct and Creatively Direct this, from concept through to completion.
The incredible team at Coffee & TV poured their resources and creative energies into producing the final film.
