DOLPH reloads as a multi-disciplinary production company
DOLPH founders, Daniel McCauley and Jesse Coetsee are known as the ultimate crafters in post, design, editing and animation, creating a visually recognisable style that is both graphic and bold. Now with a growing portfolio of directing work, DOLPH has established itself as an independent end-to-end multi-disciplinary production company. We find out how the duo’s holistic approach to each project could be exactly what your script needs.
Motion City Films toast to a decade of filmmaking with new look
‘Helen & Kim’, the two-headed director team, opened Motion City Films’ doors over ten years ago.
