Kumo London was invited to provide camera and lighting support for a vibrant branded social campaign produced by Preference Studio for Four Communications. Directed by Stephen Raynes with cinematography by Ben Watkins and production by Laura Dixon, the short promo follows a female dancer moving through the park’s most iconic locations, celebrating cultural expression, physicality and public space through movement.

Representing Kumo London, Yohan Forbes offered live camera support and technical integration, ensuring the shoot ran smoothly across multiple outdoor locations. The piece exemplifies how Kumo London can embed within creative teams to deliver lighting, framing and crew continuity support for fast-paced visual campaigns.
