The emerging Berlin-based production company BONAPARTE adds Canadian-born director Andrew De Zen to their roster.
Earlier this year, De Zen and BONAPARTE teamed up to shoot the new campaign for Swiss client V-ZUG. Lensed by Joe Cook, the film features world-renowned architect, Valerio Olgiati, and racing driver, Romain Grosjean.
‘’The V-ZUG campaign really showcases Andrew’s remarkably crafted cinematic language.’’ says Michael Gugger, Director’s Rep at BONAPARTE. ‘‘a stunning piece that we are all very excited about as a first collab!’’
V-ZUG was not De Zen’s first time shooting with such prominent figures as he recently directed, pro-golfer, Rory McIlroy for the fitness tech company, WHOOP. Previous to that, he directed Under Armour’s SS21 Mental Health campaign, featuring American Olympian Michael Phelps, and two-time unified world heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua.
