Hereby we send you our directors proposal for the Ziggo Endless Entertainment Campaign.
David Eilander was born right here *points to the canal* in the heart of Amsterdam and grew up among the characters of city life, from kids on the soccer field to old beer drinkers at the local brown bars. Taking his curiosity for all kinds of people and the worlds they operate in, David brings these elements of reality into his own quirky filmic universes. He often blends this with new creative techniques resulting in a youthful, light hearted style imbued with pop culture and humour. His commercial films are filled with energy and an overall joie de vivre.
Well known as a director and television producer, Mattias was already walking around with a camera at the age of 12. Now he’s one of the chiefs at Holy Fools. He’s good at funny films—ones that really make you laugh—in his own distinctive style. So much so that people say, ‘ah, that must be a Mattias Schut.’ His true talent? Mattias never makes a mountain out of a molehill, unless that’s what the job calls for.
Unlike Alfred Hitchcock’s fictional character of the same name, this Norman Bates is not made up of three personalities… but two. Dirk Verheye and Inti Calfat have been directing commercials, fiction series and films together since 2009. Working together they bounce off each other’s differences and ultimately elevate their joined creativity to new levels. Combining a highly visual aesthetic with a background in documentary, they know precisely how to deliver powerful, authentic stories with a substance and realism that everyone can feel.
