In a move that fans of nominative determinism will love, directing duo Leila & Damien de Blinkk have joined Blink-affiliated production company Colonel Blimp.
Made up of Leila Namaan and Damien Laurent, de Blinkk have a background in photography which they have put to use in commercials for worldwide clients including Samsung, Lacoste [above], French Connection, Sony, Volvo and Amazon.
Leila & Damien de Blinkk say of their new production home, “joining Colonel Blimp feels like being back in art school. A corner with a big circuit board where the ‘ultra creative’ button sits effortlessly next to the ‘super-professional” button. It instantly felt like home really.”
Colonel Blimp EP Paul Weston, meanwhile, says, “I’ve been a big fan of Leila and Damien’s work for years. They are true artists and I’m beyond excited about them being part of the roster here at Colonel Blimp. They are totally unique in the world of advertising and I think they bring something really exceptional to every script they get their hands on.”
