The Elves Have Rescued Xmas Day

J.P. Morgan Present Sorting.

Emily and I were to go to a warehouse on the outskirts of Bournemouth to film J.P. Morgan employees sorting donated Christmas presents for the less fortunate.

The day was incredibly fun. It was just the two of us and we therefore had complete creative freedom and directive control of the day.

Emily and I took turns filming and recording sound and managed to make an entire video in its own right.
