TABLA

Founded by our friend Tania Mohan, Tabla is a luxury brand made in and inspired by India.

Tabla journeys across the country in search of exquisite techniques and artistry that is being kept alive by the karigars (artisans) to create intricate embellishments and detailed threadwork that cannot be found elsewhere. These are then fused onto modern yet timeless silhouettes. From its exquisite embroideries to its vibrant history, India is the core part of Tabla’s DNA.

Fast Management photographer Diego Merino shot their latest images with the beautiful Keisha Lall ahead of Tania’s opening of the Tabla’s first London flagshipstore at 107 Walton Street, SW3.

NICCOLO BY MARCO POLO

Niccolo by Marco Polo is a collection of urban chic hotels under the umbrella of Hong Kong’s Marco Polo Hotel Group.

Fast Management was commissioned by branding agency Yang Rutherford to have our artists Eugenio Recuenco and Eric Dover interpret their tag of “New Encounters – Timeless Pleasures” which they had developed for the launch.

The film and stills campaign, written and directed by Fast Management’s Eugenio Recuenco and Eric Dover and with production and casting by Fast Management was shot in Los Angeles last October.

We are delighted to share the tv commercial film that accompanies the print and social media push in conjunction with the group’s opening of their first property in Chengdu.

Eugenio and Eric’s characteristic cinematic signature is palpable throughout every one of the frames that lead us to the open ended and at times mysterious finale.

 

 

 

NEPAL EARTHQUAKE APPEAL

The 7.9 magnitude earthquake that hit Nepal last week has seen many people help in the effort to raise funds for those affected in the tragedy. Supermodel Cindy Crawford and photographer John-Paul Pietrus are doing their part to help with funds by selling ten limited edition prints of the supermodel signed by both Cindy and Pietrus. Available for $1,000, 100% of the funds of the 20×24 print will go towards the British Red Cross for the Nepal Earthquake Appeal. You can also do your part by visiting RedCross.org.

“I started charity print sales several years ago first with Tao Okamoto for the Japanese earthquake appeal, and about one and a half years ago with Naomi Campbell, Tao Okamoto, Mariacarla Boscono, Fei Fei Sun, Andreja Pejic, Rob Evans, and Tian Yi for Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) appeal. From those projects, I’ve become aware how much of a positive difference I can make simply through my reputation and talents as a photographer,” the photographer says about the project.

If you are interested in purchasing one of the limited edition prints please contact the photographer, John-Paul Pietrus at info@johnpaulpietrus.com

THE SECOND DEFEAT – A FILM BY EUGENIO RECUENCO

The long awaited moment has arrived and we can share with you the trailer to The Second Defeat a film by Eugenio Recuenco.

At the end of 2014, Eugenio Recuenco and Eric Dover started a crowdfunding towards the production costs of making their movie The Second Defeat based on the book, Los Girasoles Ciegos (The Blind Sunflowers) by Spanish writer Alberto Méndez.

This crowdfunding was aimed at equipping the professionals who would worked on this project with the necessary tools to ensure that their creativity and eagerness was not betrayed by a tight budget, thus allowing them the freedom to do the true justice this project truly deserved.

This short film has a special feature. When SOGECINE and Jose Luis Cuerda selflessly assigned the rights of Alberto Méndez’s book, their sole condition was that the project had a non-profit nature. Therefore it was decided that , if the crowdfunding target budget of €205,000 was exceeded the surplus amount will be allocated to DYES, an NGO that works in countries like Sierra Leone, Chad and the Ivory Coast promoting education and sport as elements of peace and development, and helping to rehabilitate child soldiers.

The Second Defeat, is a breathtaking story dealing with a young poet who escaped from the victors of a terrible war to the mountains together with his pregnant wife. In this lonely and cold scenario, the young woman gives birth to a child and dies right after. Thanks to a private diary, where the man puts his fear into words, we can picture the background of the futile fight of the father to save his son’s life.

Filming started in January of 2015.

For more information on the movie, background to the story and its director as well as how to part of this beautiful project and donate through the crowdfunding follow the link;

After months of demolition, renovation and design challenges Fast Management is moving to its new home.

None of this could have been possible without the amazing vision of award winning designer Johnny Li and his team at Li&Co.

Who would have thought that the shabby office we found could be given such a Cinderella treatment. More photos coming soon…
