5 Things To Do – The Animal Encounter Edition 🦁

Cape Town and its surrounds offer some incredible wildlife experiences — from penguins and seals to lions and the Big Five.

💛 Cornellskop: A one-of-a-kind animal encounter at the home of legendary trainer Luke Cornell. Expect everything from zebra and cheetah to meerkats, lions and wild dogs. Visits by appointment only.

💛 Aquila Private Game Reserve: The closest Big Five safari experience to Cape Town. Perfect as a day trip or overnight adventure.

💛 Boulders Beach: Home to the famous African penguin colony and an essential stop on any Peninsula tour. Go early in peak season.

💛 Shark Cage Diving: An unforgettable experience for the brave, with reputable operators based in Gansbaai and Mossel Bay.

💛 Seal Island Boat Trips: Get up close to hundreds of Cape Fur Seals off Hout Bay or Simon's Town — with spectacular coastal scenery thrown in for good measure.

It’s nearly that time again. 🇫🇷☀️

Shayne and Beccy will, of course, be back in Cannes from Monday 22nd through Friday 26th June.

If you're heading there too, please drop us a mail. We’d love to catch up.

Lights, camera, Johannesburg!

Joburg really comes into its own in June. Dry, sunny days, piercing blue skies and a huge range of locations, from city streets and contemporary architecture to African savannah and the Big Five.

Car shoots, cityscapes, golden landscapes and all wrapped up in that unmistakable Mzansi energy.

As usual, we’ve only included a small selection here, so reach out to [email protected] if you'd like to see more.

Happy Birthday to the legend that is Mr Philip Key! 🎉

Back in 1989, while still working as a soundman, Philip sat around a kitchen table with a friend and came up with the name Moonlighting to service a French commercial shoot. The rest, as they say, is history.

From running one of South Africa’s first production service companies and helping put the country on the map as a world-class filming destination, to exporting South African expertise to Romania and Chile, and later moving into the world of sports content alongside his sons, Philip has remained a highly respected pioneer and stalwart of our industry.

What has never changed is his curiosity, entrepreneurial spirit and ability to spot an opportunity where others see a challenge.

Wishing you the happiest of birthdays, Philip, and many more adventures ahead.
With love from your very extended (and rather widespread) Moonlighting family. 💛

Fast Forward to July ☀️If you’re looking for Mediterranean summer with South African-style production value, don’t forget Croatia.

From European towns and winding streets to glorious golden beaches, castles and waterfalls, Croatia offers an incredible range of locations. Add architecture that spans medieval, Soviet-era and contemporary styles, and there’s plenty to work with.

Another one from our recent CIBC shoot showcasing the work of Art Director Wikus Muller and his team.

A throwback to the epic set-builds from Stella Artois and the work of Production Designers Paul Austerberry and the much-loved and so much-missed Naobie Noisette.
