With a vision to better lives through art, we seek to work as a team engaged in wordplay, concepts, developing ADs, audio tweaking aka sound pro

After the long, treacherous journey from the Port of Mombasa to Lodwar - 1,150 km / 720 miles, tons of relief food were offloaded at the National Cereals and Produce Board (​NCPB) silos; a state corporation that offers procurement, management, storage and distribution for strategic food reserves.
Carefully stacked for optimal preservation — this is the temporary home before the final, most important leg: reaching the people.
Onloading starts - unfortunately no forklifts, just grit, sweat, and the quiet knowledge that lives depend on it.
A reminder that logistics isn't just movement — it's care, planning, resilience and protection of hope.
Off to Lobei village - 75km south of Lodwar, 2 hours away.

The long journey of relief food from the Port of Mombasa to the heart of Turkana — a week-long, perilous trip through bandit-prone routes and unforgiving terrain.
This was more than a delivery — it was a mission. A lifeline on wheels.

It was an honor to document this for WFP, in partnership with USAID.

As global aid landscapes evolve and programs like USAID face funding cuts, we remember the lives touched — the families fed, the futures changed.
This work mattered. It still does.

What does it take to break barriers and redefine excellence?

Last week, we had the incredible honor of capturing the story of Julius Yego, a trailblazer who redefined what’s possible with sheer determination and an unconventional approach. Known as the "YouTube Athlete," Yego's journey from self-training with online videos to becoming a world champion javelin thrower is nothing short of inspiring.

At Ideas Unplugged, we celebrate stories that challenge norms and push boundaries. Julius Yego embodies the spirit of innovation, resilience, and self-driven excellence—values that align deeply with our creative philosophy. His journey reminds us that with the right mindset and access to knowledge, greatness is within reach.

Swipe through for behind-the-scenes moments with Yego and our Creative Director, as we bring his remarkable story to life. Stay tuned for the full documentary—because some stories deserve to be told right.

The next generation of filmmakers? They’re here—and they’re winning. 🎬🏆
Last year, we took the students of Alliance High School under our wing for the Kenya National Drama and Film Festival 2024, and they showcased remarkable talent. Their advert earned Winning Advert, Central Region, and Runners-Up - Winning Advert Nationally. 🔥
This year, we’re back—pushing boundaries and raising the bar even higher. Because at Ideas Unplugged, storytelling isn’t just about cameras and scripts—it’s about vision, ex*****on, and excellence.
Watch this space. The best is yet to come. 🎥
