EPiKA
The work
Vertical ads for an Edinburgh-based nightlife brand. Workshops and club nights, with a focus on creating opportunities for women in the music industry.
What I did
I shot and cut every ad, which is then run as ad sets on Meta. This runs alongside organic brand content, which tends to be more experimental.

The work
High-end organic photography and video content, designed to be eye-catching and unexpected.
What I did
Planning, shooting, cutting, and account management - I run @kofikade end-to-end.
Dig Deep
The work
An episode of Dig Deep, filmed on location across a single day.
What I did
Camera, sound and directing on the day, then the cut and grade. Nothing could be staged twice, so the edit had to find the story in what the day gave up.
What came of it
5:29 of narrative, location sound, full grade. My clearest example of mid-length content, improvised and shaped into a final piece.

The work
My final-year film at Staffordshire University, made through a production company I set up for it.
What I did
Writer and director. Thirty minutes is a different problem to thirty seconds, and it is where I learned to hold audience attention.

About
I am obsessed with storytelling. How a narrative is built, why one cut lands and the next one doesn't, what keeps somebody watching to the end.
I love all creative disciplines. I play instruments, create art, and produce my own music. I'm always making something. I also like working with businesses: taking what a company wants to say and finding a creative way to show it visually.
If you have something you want made, I would like to hear about it.
