Welcome to SceneOn.
We are a new kind of production house geared towards producing traditional media content like TVCs, and also new media content for online and mobile.
Our creative team consists of six directors who all work on the initial treatment, with one director taking the lead on each project.
With in-house editors, VFX and motion designers, and our own offline and online post facilities, we are able to provide our directors with more creative freedom to push their ideas to the next level.
SceneOn was designed to be an end to end solution. We are a creative collective that works for the agency.

Matt Chuang shows us how to ruin a European model
February 06, 2012
In a cheeky new spot for VicRoads, Matt shows us how the smallest details can ruin the most beautiful things. Shot in slow-motion and in timeless black and white, the setting and the talent screams old Hollywood, setting up the audience for a simple but effective punchline.
The spot comes to us via agency Marmalade, and is a call to action for all car owners who care about looks. Check it out for yourself on Matt's page here.
Pinball
February 25, 2012
Last December, the Holcomb brothers commenced production on their debut feature film, "Pinball", written and directed by Matt and produced and edited by Trevor.
"Pinball" is a retelling of Cain and Abel as an urban crime western and features Mark 'Chopper' Read, playing a slightly fictionalised version of himself. "Pinball" is the first Australian feature to be shot with Panavision anamorphic lenses since 1997, and may end up having the dubious honour of being one of the last local features to be shot on 35mm.
According to Trevor, "We always wanted to get Chopper for the film and shoot it on 35mm with anamorphic glass. In this business it's hard to get what you want, and to have had a couple of big wins so early is a nice feeling. But an even better feeling is seeing what we've already shot and cut turn out as good as we all hoped it would."

It's Us Against Them
February 19, 2012
When making a commercial for the biggest sporting club in the country,
you need to think on a large scale. Collingwood Football Club's 2012
membership drive was filmed with three cameras, a 60-foot green
screen, a Collingwood Army and features a voice over from the
incredible Jack Thompson.
Joining forces with Spike Creative and the award-winning sound design
team at Bang Bang Studios, we built on the previous year's commercial.
This time, the Collingwood Army marches up against a 10,000 strong
army guarding the MCG like a fortress. Love them or hate them, you
have to check it out for yourself.
Behind the Scenes - Adriatic
February 14, 2012
Shooting two commercials in one day is not unusual, but when you have a pair of disparate creative concepts, it should be impossible to find one location that can service them both. The creative duo of Director Matt Holcomb and Producer/ Editor Trevor Holcomb were asked to do just that.
Their new series of playful spots for Adriatic Furniture via the Sphere Agency was shot on a sprawling, Hamptons-style estate on the Mornington Peninsula. The unexpected location made what should be impossible, possible - and suited the spots down to a tee.

Behind the Scenes- Onitsuka Tiger
November 28, 2011
4 professional parkour athletes, 3 cameras and a remote-controlled helicopter equals one thrilling 60 second spot. Filmed on location at an abandoned power station, the "Dust It Off" TVC was created for Onitsuka Tiger in association with Tropfest. It wasn't the most glamorous days on set - at one stage we may have used a wheelchair as a dolly, more than one crew member flinched at the awesome tricks the talent showed us, and we had to crawl into the location via a small hole in the wall. We can't help but think that this creative film making just led to a lot of fun on set and some exhilarating results.
Oh Yeah Wow's 'Easy Way Out'
January 27, 2012
By now you must know that Gotye's latest single 'Easy Way Out' has a killer music video directed by Darcy Prendergast (pictured above) and our friends at Oh Yeah Wow. What you might not know is that the VFX Director on the video was Andrew Goldsmith, who is the newest member of the team at SceneOn. Check out the video and more of Andrew's work in the VFX / Motion Design section here.
Coming Soon...
January 27, 2012
After last year's successful membership campaign, we were once again asked to create something big for Collingwood Football Club's membership drive. We can't reveal too much at the moment, but one thing is for sure - this year's spot will make last year's look like child's play.
Stay tuned...
Behind the scenes - St Kilda Football Club
December 06, 2011
Matt Chuang has teamed up with Spike Creative to direct a massive spot for St. Kilda Football Club. The 2012 membership drive campaign was filmed over two days, in five locations with three cameras - including one mounted on a helicopter. Team this with the thunderstorm from hell, over 2000 extras and a voice over from Eric Bana, "Line in the Sand" is proof that bigger sometimes really is better.

Welcome Goldy
October 17, 2011
This week we have welcomed the newest member to our team, Andrew "Goldy" Goldsmith. Goldy is our resident VFX / Motion Designer, and has had a plethora of experience in music videos, short films and TVCs, including his recent role as the Visual Effects Director on Oh Yeah Wow's music video for Gotye. Having worked with us on some previous projects, it became apparent that we were looking for excuses to bring him into the office, so we have made it official and decided to never let him go. Check out Goldy's talents on our VFX / Motion Designer page for yourself!
