Too Much is out today on Netflix, directed by and shot by Ricardo de Gracia.

A few BTS moments of us framing up Tower Bridge. Lots to coordinate on this one, with a small time window, London traffic, and cast, but it came together so well. The team at Working Title was incredible to work with. Shout out to PM Tina Schepers for taking such good care of us.

Thank you to our team who covered multiple days on this shoot.

Exhibiting at BSC this year was an incredible experience. Thank you to for welcoming us back so warmly. It was great to speak and catch up with so many old and new faces—which is what we love most about the expo.

Special thanks to the our team who designed, built, and rigged our booth (who also sorted the showreel, the merch, and the snacks), and met with everyone who visited.
