After 6 years of turning footage into magic, it’s time to say farewell to our brilliant editor, Shelby. Your creativity, dedication, and ability to turn every edit into a masterpiece will be greatly missed. You’ve made every project better, and every day at the office a little brighter. 💫

We’ll miss your jokes, your defining bass drops, and your uncanny ability to make even the most chaotic timeline look flawless. Wishing you all the best as you take on new adventures in Johannesburg — just promise you’ll save us a seat at the editing table when you’re famous. 😉

This week Strangelove celebrates it’s 4th year of making art.
We love what we do, however strange it might be. Many, many hours of dedication, passion and attention to detail is what we believe has shaped us into what we are very proud to be today.
This would not be possible without our amazing collaborators so from all of us at SL we would like to say thank you!

Sincerely and Strangely,
Bevil, Manuel, Nic, Xander, Shelby, Charmaine, Darian.

What a time to be alive on planet earth.
During these uncertain times Strangelove will still be operating remotely.
We have put measures in place to make sure our wonderful team have facilities at home to ensure we can still take on any post production projects.
Using services like Zoom and Frame.io we can accommodate very accurate remote approvals.
All methods of contact remain the same so do call for a chat.
Lots of love from Strangelove
