We shot this profile for Khayalethu Youth Centre in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. It’s mission is to provide intervention programs and alternative care for street children, specifically for boys, between the ages of 8 and 18. Their aim is to meet their basic needs through a holistic and developmental approach, with the ultimate aim of re-socialization and family re-unification.
Skybok
Memory Lane
Cute coffee shop in Port Elizabeth, South Africa! Filmed it on a stunning day.
OMG UK
We shot this corporate video for the “Oh My Gosh!” Group launching in the UK. It was a pleasure doing business with them. We got some great crowd shots for the video as they were holding an event that evening, and we also got some nice interviews with prominent local faces. Enjoy!
Salt
Salt is a Restaurant & Bar along the famous “Stanley Street” Strip in Richmond Hill, Port Elizabeth. It’s very successful & popular, especially as a venue for birthday parties & other functions. We were pleased to shoot their video profile for them. We captured it on a very busy night! The final product looks great, Enjoy! :)
Nanaga Farm Stall
If you’ve never been to the Nanaga Farm Stall………….you simply HAVE to stop and enjoy the “Nanaga Experience”. As the old saying goes; “You don’t know what you’re missing until you have had it!”
Located comfortably between rolling hills, it’s conveniently located at the intersection of three main routes, namely the N2, R10 and R72. It lies 50km from Port Elizabeth, the Eastern Cape’s largest city.
It’s nicknamed “The Clover Leaf” because the convergence of these roads creates a clover leaf shape when viewed from the air.
If you are familiar with Nanaga, or a regular visitor, then you already know of the treasure trove of delights behind the impressive and massive front door!
We were thrilled to shoot their video profile for them, which you can check out below! They are so famous for their “Roosterbrood” – a real south african treat – not to mention their meat pies!
Tjing Tjing
One of Cape Town’s favourite night clubs, Tjing Tjing is a rooftop bar located just off Longstreet, Cape Town.
We got to shoot on an absolutely packed night!
It was pumping and the video came out exceptionally.
I love their colour scheme and ‘attic’ feel.
The owner is friendly and professional and I can really recommend hiring this place out as a venue for a birthday party, corporate function or business meeting.
It has a festive atmosphere and shooting their official video profile was a dream.
I enjoyed editing this and doing the voice over particularly because I enjoy the venue so much and I wanted to do Ilse Koekemoer (owner) justice on her fabulous club!

I’m very blessed in that, through the shoots we do for Skybok, I get to travel to so many different places, meet so many different people and – best of all – see amazing things. I’m remembering now back to a place we filmed in Cape Town called Vovo Telo.
It’s a trendy little bar at the waterfront and they are really well-known for their coffees and pastries. I also love their pizzas and artisan breads. I’ve realised that the coffee culture truly has grown both here and internationally.
On the day we filmed their video profile, I just stuck to a peach iced tea. I love them and BOS is my new favourite make! How about you? Are you a coffee fiend?
Friar Tucks
For best viewing quality, make sure to set the viewing settings to 1080p HD by clicking on the cog at the bottom right-hand corner of the video.
Coming from Cape Town I’m used to my fair share of nightlife ………….. but Friar Tucks was something else altogether!
A classic nightclub in the heart of Grahamstown, South Africa, with a massive dance floor and 2 bars, you won’t be coming home until the early hours of the morning!
It’s been voted as South Africa’s number 1 nightclub.
I absolutely loved the vibe at this venue………. it was packed with students and everyone was having a great time!
I love the music – they often have popular DJs in for the night.
Listen to DJ Skullet’s mix from when he played there in August last year:

The Rat & Parrot
For best viewing quality, make sure to set the viewing settings to 1080p HD by clicking on the cog at the bottom right-hand corner of the video.
I’ve always heard stories about The Rat & Parrot in Grahamstown, South Africa.
But I never believed them until I saw for myself the raucous behaviour that goes on amongst its devoted patrons – 90% of them students from nearby Rhodes University!
Our ‘Crew’ for the night!
Some of the drunk students we captured on film are hilarious and absolutely perfect to truly capture the atmosphere and essence of what you can expect here!
We had so much fun and it was an honour shooting their profile for them.
Everyone there was game and put their best foot forward when the camera was rolling…………. Thank you!
