SOLAB PICTURES

We're beyond excited to welcome Terence Neale to the Solab family! Hailing from Johannesburg, Terence has made a name for himself with his bold and subversive filmmaking style. He’s known for shining a spotlight on underrepresented communities and pushing creative boundaries. You might recognize his work from iconic music videos like Die Antwoord’s and Skrillex’s 'Ragga Bomb,' where he reimagined his hometown as a post-apocalyptic world. Since then, he's collaborated with major brands like Apple, Nike, BMW, Adidas, and more. Terence also made history as the first South African director to win a Cannes Lions Grand Prix for his unforgettable 'Original Is Never Finished' campaign for Adidas. We can't wait to collaborate with him!
