The one-stop principle of The Penthouse Amsterdam:

Reel
Projects
BOAS​​​​​​​

“When ‘trash–to–treasure’–fashion brand BOAS – currently having two stores in the heart of Amsterdam – needed a film to catch the limelight of potential new investors, I edited a film that not only explains their mission, but also the motivation behind it: the re-useability of the ever-growing heap of discarded apparel caused by mass consumption globally.The 1:30–minute film uses a selection of stock footage and footage shot in store and at various events, giving the film a grounded and authentic look & feel.”
MASTERSKIP
“For the rebrand of ‘MasterSkip’ – a foundation that exploits three tall ships for training purposes – I was tasked with the editing of the brand-film, title animations and graphic design of the campaign–assets. Challenge for me was to find right tone–of–voice that appealed not only to the parents but also to their teenage offspring and to get them excited to board a life–changing adventure.”
AMBER
“When agency NEON42 was asked by Dubai–based Al Tayer Group to reinvigorate their outdated shopping–app called ‘Amber’, the idea was to transform the app into a cutting–edge AI–driven shopping assistant. For me the task was, to edit a pitch–film that not only explained the initial idea, but also to establish the visual look & feel of the world we were building.”
BIO CLEAN CARBON
“When agency NEON42 was asked by Dubai–based Al Tayer Group to reinvigorate their outdated shopping–app called ‘Amber’, the idea was to transform the app into a cutting–edge AI–driven shopping assistant. For me the task was, to edit a pitch–film that not only explained the initial idea, but also to establish the visual look & feel of the world we were building.”
MERCEDES
“Next to having the privilege of being the video editor on the team at 180 that won the BMW-account, over the years the renowned agency invited me back multiple times to edit a variety of mood and brand videos to keep the brand moving forward, including the video on BMW's switch to ‘Electrification’.”
AFFLIGEM
“When agency NEON42 was asked by Dubai–based Al Tayer Group to reinvigorate their outdated shopping–app called ‘Amber’, the idea was to transform the app into a cutting–edge AI–driven shopping assistant. For me the task was, to edit a pitch–film that not only explained the initial idea, but also to establish the visual look & feel of the world we were building.”
RANDSTAD
“When agency NEON42 was asked by Dubai–based Al Tayer Group to reinvigorate their outdated shopping–app called ‘Amber’, the idea was to transform the app into a cutting–edge AI–driven shopping assistant. For me the task was, to edit a pitch–film that not only explained the initial idea, but also to establish the visual look & feel of the world we were building.”
PHILIPS AMBILIGHT
“When your thriving ‘Eco–Sexy’ hotel chain needs to expand its workforce and the pool of skilled workers is limited, you need to distinguish yourself by making working at your hotels very sexy attractive by means of a viral recruitment campaign. In collaboration with the marketing team at Conscious Hotels, I finalized the six provocative yet cheeky scripts, after which I took over to direct and edit the multiple videos, for social media, online and other media channels. The viral videos caused quite a stir on social media, resulting in a plentiful of applicants.”
Creativity X Hospitality
While most of my work is done remotely, I value an in-person collaboration too. My doors are always open to – first of all – get acquainted, to review projects or brainstorm new ideas. When you visit, you’ll find a comfortable and inspiring space where ideas flow freely over fresh coffee and/or lunch, i.e. the V.I.P.-treatment. R.S.V.P. today!
