A is for Al Sinclair

tenthree are delighted to announce that the multi award-winning, Al Sinclair has officially joined our roster of talented editors.

Al actually started editing when he was 8 years old. Much to his parents dismay his techniques then involved VHS tapes, scissors, Pritt Stick and bleach. Old habits die hard but rest assured, Al has now refined those methods and we are proud to have him on board. Welcome to tenthree Al.

Martin Aamund - Budweiser

A few months ago we had Director Martin Aamund in for a double whammy of Budweiser jobs. The first spot was for the sponsorship of the FA Cup and the second was an abstract piece for the lovely nightclub-going folk in Russia. Both jobs had a completely different look and feel and furthermore so did the Director's Cuts. However, after months of anticipation they've finally been finished up and we're excited to share them.

Auto Trader - The One

We were delighted to have the Superglue dream team back at tenthree towers working with Quin on this series of spots for Auto Trader. It was up to Director and tenthree favourite Mark Jenkinson to recreate that glorious feeling of getting a new car and experiencing it for the first time. We all remember the sweet smell of the interior, the feeling as you insert your key into that unfamiliar hole..... and the purr of the engine when you first start her up. Unfortunately when your first car is a smelly 8th hand Renault Clio, like mine, you have to try a little harder to enjoy the moment.

Nevertheless, working through the years, it seems that the magic of this moment hasn't changed much even as the cars (and the fashions) have.

Lianne Las Havas - Forget

First and foremost, apologies to the thousands of people who wrote in to complain about the lack of blogging this month. Unfortunately we've been 'enjoying' a busy period and the blog has suffered because of this. Sorry.

To emphasize how bad we feel and to prove how much we care, we're dedicating this post to YOU and we've carefully chosen this particular video to express our feelings. It's called Forget and hopefully the message is clear - we will try not to Forget to update the blog...... Jimmy also happened to cut the video, which is somewhat coincidental.

A big slice of New York cool, some clever camera moves and the gorgeous Lianne La Havas all combine for Lianne Las Havas's latest promo, Directed by Alex Southam.

tenthree do Urban Golf

Last night we all headed down to Urban Golf on Great Pulteney Street for a bit of a company outing. We fancied something other than going to the pub for a drink, so we decided to play golf AND drink. It was a tough call between this and team building at Go Ape.....actually no it wasn't.

It was a chance for everyone to let out their competitive side and have a lot of fun, however, in retrospect we probably should've played teams as we only managed to complete 3 holes in two hours! The highlight has to be when Becs managed to hit the ball BEHIND her, from the tee! We still don't know how it happened but it was amazing and she may be the only golfer in the world able to do this.

Vattenfall - Olympic Portraits

We've been waiting to show these little gems for a while now. Charlie was whisked off to Stockholm for a few weeks to cut a series of Olympic films with homegrown talent Thomas Hilland for energy giant Vattenfall.

Vattenfall is sponsoring thirty young talents to give them the best conditions to make it all the way to the Olympics. Instead of supporting already established athletes, Vattenfall chooses to promote the young and still unknown.

We knew from the first look at the rushes that this was going to be a special job and after months of wait we've finally got our hands on the first few films.

Bradley Wiggins by Stanley Chow

Here at tenthree towers we love cycling. We cycle to work. We cycle to shops. We cycle to the pub. What we can't do is cycle 2,173 miles over loads of mountains in 87 hours 34 minutes and 47 seconds. Bradley Wiggins can and that's why we love him and it seems friend of tenthree Stanley Chow does too because he's done this awesome homage to Le Gentleman, looking resplendent in the maillot jaune. Good work Brad!
