Disclosure Creative Direction

One of our first moving image projects for Disclosure was to promote their debut album Settle. We created an advert using hand-drawn animation and rotoscoping effects. The advert was awarded a UK Music Video Award in 2014 for best Music Advert.

We started the Caracal campaign by hunting down a wild caracal cat to film and photograph for the cover of the album. Eventually finding one in South Oregon, a small crew travelled to document the lynx. From the shoot, we created the album artwork and promotional footage for the TV commercials.

In early 2015, we were commissioned by Disclosure to design the screen content for their ‘Caracal World Tour’. We continued our art direction from the album campaign onto the stage with a 17-strong set of custom visuals. Due to the number of featured artists on the album, we also produced a number of shoots to film each collaborator to make their presence felt during the live experience. We worked closely with the artists’ teams and lighting designer Will Potts & Okulus to create a show where lighting and video intertwined seamlessly.

Album artwork for Energy and the accompanying singles, with the Disclosure face sculpted into earth of aerial landscape shots, created with Nic Hamilton. The vinyl packaging included a special edition eco vinyl, with picture disc.

Artworks for Disclosure’s 2018 EP, Moonlight, and its series of singles. A number of rendered light bursts were created for the series, with the EP receiving a special edition gold vinyl printed on mirri board for a metallic and highly reflective finish.
