The Berry Boys Join the Directors Roster at Outsider

The Berry Boys (Ryan Burnham and Luke Robson) bring an injection of energetic creativity, post production know-how and a foothold in the TVC, digital and social worlds.

Emerging from their animation studio in Hackney Wick - The Berry - Ryan and Luke have built an award-winning post team, which has supported the creation of adverts and digital content for the likes of Nike, Justin Bieber, Porsche, Adidas, Audi, Formula 1 and most recently… an exciting Christmas project (released soon!) with Tim Burton.

The Berry Boys’ unique filmmaking style, alongside their post-production offering through The Berry, means they can take on small and larger scale projects with a creative, nimble and effective approach. Their journey so far has seen them navigate new vfx technology, live action stunts, CGI and character animation, to create and achieve extraordinary, stand-out results.

As life-long time friends before their business partnership, Ryan and Luke are as tight as they come and are super excited to bring their passion to Outsider.

The Berry Boys said, “This is a seriously exciting opportunity and genuinely feels like perfect timing for us to be bringing our fast and creative animation imaginations to the Outsider roster. Having tried to convince Otis to sign us many years ago… it's a great feeling to know that we’ve pushed our abilities and skills to the point where we’re considered “advertising gold!” (well… that’s what we think Packer is going to say once our first few Outsider projects go live!). We’ll be bringing our contagious enthusiasm, plus years of CGI and Animation knowledge to Outsiders clients and can’t wait to get going”

Speaking about The Berry Boys joining their roster, EPs Otis Denison and Richard Packer said, "I've known Ryan and Luke for a long time and have been wanting to work with them for ages… so to get this opportunity, especially as they've really come into their own as directors is fantastic. They're supremely talented and ambitious but also just stand-up people, which makes the relationship so much more worthwhile and fun. Through their work in VFX at The Berry they know the ins and the outs of the industry already so we're really well equipped at offering agencies and clients a production from start to finish that few can match. Their Audi work marks a massive step forwards and there's plenty more to come. We're buzzing to say the least!"

The Berry Boys are in the final stages of post production on a Christmas advert with Tim Burton, which will be dropping in the next few weeks! Keep one eye on the lads for the launch of this ad.
