Stink is thrilled to announce that the multi-award winning director, Ernest Desumbila, has joined their talent roster for exclusive representation in the UK as well as the DACH, Czech and Brazil markets.
With his signature style of epic performance enhanced by dynamic VFX, Ernest has brought some of culture’s biggest names head-to-head: from Tyson Fury and Usyk’s undisputed heavyweight battle to Messi and Ronaldinho’s FIFA World Cup challenge.
Working with brands like Ubisoft, Red Bull, Riyadh Season, Pepsi and Nike, Ernest has crafted cinematic worlds infused with mixed-media magic. His recent campaign ‘A Tale As Old As Time’ won a spread of awards, including a Cannes Lions and a Clio, while his further credits include music videos for Diplo, Labrinth and Sia and original stories like the short ‘Blood Metal Revenge’
Ernest, who founded the post-production house, Sauvage said, “The team at Stink really gets me — from the very beginning, it was clear we share a passion for craft and high-quality filmmaking. I'm genuinely excited to join them. I know we're going to create incredible things together.”
Jon Chads, co-managing director of Stink UK, “Ernest brings an unstoppable positive energy to the work. Mix that with a deep knowledge of design, love for manga and the best visual effects out there, and you have this filmmaker who builds worlds with a unique twist. All of us at Stink can’t wait to collaborate and craft future projects.”
