COMMISSIONS

The Atelier

I take on a handful of commissions a year — for marques, collectors, and the occasional concours run by someone who cares about the small details.


FORMS OF COMMISSION
  • I.

    The Portrait

    A single film. One subject, studied closely. About six to ten minutes; sometimes longer if the car earns it.

  • II.

    The Campaign

    A coordinated set of films and writing for a launch or a moment. Built for the schedule, not against it.

  • III.

    The Lineage Study

    A longer examination of a model line, a chassis history, or a marque's philosophy. Usually one film plus an essay; sometimes a small set.

  • IV.

    The Living Document

    A continuing relationship — I become the marque's standing chronicler. By invitation, and not many at once.


THE PROCESS
  1. I

    The Conversation

    We talk. I ask more questions than is strictly necessary.

  2. II

    The Brief

    A short, precise statement of what the work needs to do.

  3. III

    The Treatment

    A written proposal — what I'd film, how, when, and at what cost.

  4. IV

    The Production

    The shoot. Small crew. Deliberate camera. Patience for weather.

  5. V

    The Delivery

    The film, the essay, and the entry in the Archive — yours, with shared rights agreed in advance.


SEND A NOTE

Get in touch

Tell me what you have in mind. I read every note myself and reply when I can — usually within a week, sometimes faster if it's a fit.
