Following on from Joburg’s Creator Lab, last Friday we brought the Lab to Cape Town for another day of honest conversations, practical insights and industry know-how. Creators got to hear directly from some of the original voices in South African content creation about their journeys, what they’ve learnt along the way and how to keep growing in an ever-changing landscape. We also heard from brands and agencies about what they look for, and value when working with creators. And because the business of being a creator goes beyond the content, we got into the less glamorous (but very important) stuff too. From the legal side of the creator economy to how to avoid an expensive surprise from SARS. A huge thank you to all our speakers for sharing their time, knowledge and expertise, and to every creator who came ready to listen, learn and ask the questions that matter. A huge shout-out to our venue partner @workshop17za for hosting our Creator Labs and giving our creator community such a brilliant space to connect, learn and create. We’re so grateful for the continued support. You guys are the best. #contentcreatorawardssa

Last week our TV series Bad Influencer was featured on @shotdeck and included in their weekly Tuesday Drop emailer - definitely a milestone moment for me, my directors @director_kit + @kreagzy, as well as the rest of the crew and cast 🙌 So proud of everyone who made Bad Influencer possible. It was an amazing journey shooting this @netflix @netflixsa series. The cast were incredible and the crew put in an insane amount of hard work to build this world together. Couldn’t have asked for a better team ❤️ It was also really special returning to my hometown and shooting in parts of Jozi I probably never would have discovered otherwise. Sharing a few of my favourite frames featured by ShotDeck. We shot on 2 x @sonyprofilmmaking Sony Venice 2’s alongside a @sonyalphasa FX3 for certain rigs, paired with @truelensservices rehoused Canon FD’s from @mediafilmservice. The smaller FX3 allowed us to get into tighter spaces and stay close to the action. For our lead character BK’s flashback and panic attack moments, we used a @lensbabyusa Muse, and for all the macro handbag work we used a @laowa.cine Probe2. At times we paired the Probe2 with the FX3 and pushed higher ISOs to retain more stop in real-world locations without over-lighting. All phone footage was captured on an iPhone 16 Pro using the @blackmagicnewsofficial Camera App, recording LOG footage directly to SSD. This allowed the cast to film themselves and helped keep everything feeling raw, intimate, and immediate.
