You know, human moments.
This video is a branded doc for NYC EDC, filmed entirely on an iPhone...
"OMG, I love this video you sent! And you shot it on your iPhone! That is amazing!"
“It melted my cold, jaded heart. Haha. Great work."
...Thanks! Yeah, it's true; this short branded doc for NYC EDC is a heartfelt testament to innovative initiatives and technology saving our environment. Thanks EDC!

As a former agency creative (BBDO NY, Atmosphere Proximity and Organic), I'm your inside man. Unlike other directors, I understand the development process because I’ve been there.
I combine the malarky of creative genius with the pragmatism of the commercial business to push the creative in all the right ways. As a partner, you can trust me to get the job done in a buttoned-up manner; so professional, it's fun. Whaaaaat?
Nine out of ten brands agree.
The tenth brand doesn’t know how to have fun.

Axel Gimenez is a commercial director that specializes in comedy and lifestyle.
I also direct episodic+film in various genres, including sci-fi, horror, and the absurd.
I like my commercials funny and heartfelt. And my narrative dark. Very dark.
It's like Yin & Yang—Fire & Ice.
