Summer's on its way to the beautiful Greek island of Paxos, the location for the Netflix series 'Maestro in Blue', where a troubled musician travels to the island to help revive a local music festival, but his plans quickly change after a murder takes place.
As part of the Season 2 launch, Bunker created a full CGI environment depicting the atmospheric interior of one of Paxos' famous caves.
The image below demonstrates that our expertise in image-making can quite literally build whatever is in your imagination or recreate any location in the world and perfectly adapt it to reflect a narrative and creative direction.

Client: Reebok
Who doesn’t love Reebok classics? The shoot and creative direction were inspired by the early noughties Garage scene. Our job here was to colour grade the videos and retouch the stills to bring gritty, underground garage movement back to life.
The stills were treated to a universal clean up and colour grade and some special image-enhancement to make them work beautifully as a set. The campaign ran across social, outdoor, print, and in-store channels.
All moving content was colour graded to match the stills, to see how we did this, click here.

How do you redesign a classic vehicle that has been on our roads for over 70 years and is a British cultural icon?
It’s an unenviable task, but Land Rover have delivered by producing a fabulous incarnation of the Defender, packed the latest tech and unsurpassed capability that will take the Defender name through generations to come.
Bunker was involved in helping to launch this stunning new car. It was the end of an era for a much-loved classic, but the dawn of an exciting new one for new generations of mudders.

Simple isn’t so simple in a crisis.
In our second collaboration with Mellor & Smith we were asked to go into full-production mode and recreate some disaster zones! We recommended that a hybrid approach, blending photography with CGI, would generate the best results and would also be the safest way of working!
Click on each video to see more.
Still Moving Media provided their state-of-the-art studio for the photoshoot and their production team cast the actors and used their set building know-how to build a bespoke office environment.
With the shots in the can and all the data captured from the shoot, it was time to start breathing life and more importantly, destruction into the sets with some CGI. Disaster elements including; raging fire, billowing smoke, flood water, floating debris and glitching computer screens all blended seamlessly with the photography to create just the right amount of mayhem.
Stills graded and animations looped, the next part of the jigsaw was the sound design. Banal elevator music provided the perfect bed for the rest of the sound effects. Add to the sound of buckling steel, roaring inferno, screeching fire alarms and surges of static electricity, and the atmosphere was transformed into what feels like a real-life emergency.
The campaign was launched throughout Europe and across outdoor digital, print and social media channels and to put it simply both Mellor & Smith and Rayvn were delighted with the finished product.
Client: Ruroc
Launching a new brand is a massive thing, even for one of the fastest selling motorcycle brands in the world. Ruroc were well aware that Bunker knows how to make stuff look awesome, so to give Enginehawk the best possible introduction to the world, choosing Bunker was a no brainier.
Ruroc built a fan-based focus group on social media to develop their new Enginehawk clothing range. This helped to grow engagement, develop loyalty with potential new buyers and generate a massive buzz with their helmet customers before the launch.
Fans helped make decisions on how the clothing looked and performed, were involved in testing, and pushed the products into different areas of motorcycle riding.
Bunker is proud to be involved with such an inclusive campaign that truly puts the rider first!

Fifty years on from the release of the Range Rover, Land rover have unveiled an anniversary edition of their flagship model.
Nose to nose, you can see how much this vehicle has developed since it was launched in 1969.
The original Range Rover remained the same until 1981 when a 5 door version was introduced. Various upgrades we made throughout its life but it took another 13 years for the P38 to take its place in 1994.
The Original Range Rover’s 25 lifespan is testament to its success and popularity, and is still hugely sought after today.

The British summertime and an ice-cold gin and tonic go hand in hand, so it quenched our thirst for creativity when Jonathan Knowles asked us to help out with his latest Seedlip creation.
Seedlip is the world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirit and it can be found in some of London’s best cocktail bars, michelin starred restaurants and luxury hotels. Seedlip say, ‘It’s what to drink, when you’re not drinking’.
Our approach to this was project going to be simple; balance, beauty, subtlety and freshness. The lighting and grading needed to reflect the quality, refinement and premium nature of the product; Tonally, each element should have just the right weight and depth of colour to maintain balance in the composition and finally; all of the elements needed to feel fresh, zingy and sharp. Like any good G&T!
We know that when you’re marketing a Great British artisan drinks product, you also have find the best craftspeople in the photography industry to do the job, that’s exactly why we treated this still life photography like a fine art piece and quite right too!

The creative team at McCann Bristol let their imagination run wild when they were designing the concept for the latest Tenderstem® campaign. Our Tenderstem® hero took to extreme sports to persuade consumers be a little more adventurous with their recipes.
The new advertising campaign included print and digital advertising which was supported with social media and PR activity. Theresa Richards, assistant marketing manager for Tenderstem®, said: “We wanted the inspirational visuals to show that Tenderstem is the ultimate versatile vegetable. “We’re thrilled with the execution of the photography, as it really brings our serving suggestions to life.”
We know that one of Carl’s main aims is to give a sense of vastness to his scenes. Careful lens choices eliminate distortion, avoiding depth of field creates a feeling of distance and the using layering effects helps give depth and lets the landscape recede realistically towards the horizon.

This One Eyeland award-winning project was shot by acclaimed automotive photographer, Nigel Harniman to unveil Jaguar Racing’s new electric I-Type 2 Formula E car.
Beautifully graphic strip lighting, dynamic angles and a cool, sultry grade all make for a perfectly balanced set of images.

Alongside with Lisa Tse Ltd, The Bunker and Marc Rogoff, worked side-by-side to deliver a stunning series of images for Mews of Mayfair’s advertising campaign.
For the Mews of Mayfair’s project, The Bunker joined forces with the fashion, portrait and advertising photographer, Marc Rogoff and the luxury brand communication and development agency, Lisa Tse Ltd to produce these incredibly stylish shots.
Marc Rogoff photographed models Cecile Sinclair and Saville Dorfman in the unique and lavish surroundings of the Mews of Mayfair; a place devoted to romance and glamour located on a picturesque mews leading to the 18th-century courtyard of the stable houses in West London.
The Bunker used style-based colour grading to express the luxurious brand and helping to reflect the sophistication and elegance of the fourth-floor Mews of Mayfair’s private dining room, restaurant and brasserie, lounge and cocktail bar. Beside the beautiful venue, Marc Rogoff's equally beautiful lighting has been used to represent the bright and glamorous side of this dazzling, chic and upmarket dining experience.

During filming in rural Scotland, renowned commercial photographer, Phil Fisk captured this scene for British drama television series One of Us, made by the BBC and released on Netflix.
When the brief arrived at The Bunker’s studio, it was clear that we were going to be painting a much bigger picture with this composition. Much like the series itself, there was going to be more to this image than meets the eye.
Phil had given us everything we needed to produce a beautifully detailed image where every minute detail held meaning. Our challenge was bring depth and atmosphere to the scene and evoke intrigue and drama using lighting and grading, so we developed a highly cinematographic colour grade that perfectly suited the bleak and lonely location for the series.
This arresting image was a joy to work on as it encapsulates a subtle and complex narrative within the space of a single image. Can you work out whodunnit?
