Feel adventurous and try the latest gastronomic fad?
Or enjoy real delicious food in a classy atmosphere at the Murray?

We had great fun desiging a rubbery rack of lame, barbed spaghetti, and nuts and bolt-size dim sum delicacies...

As an architectural icon, the Murray Hotel Arches are an ideal location with so many eye-catching angles to choose from.

In preparation for the Fendi fashion catwalk, we collected timelapses of the construction and trial run of the event setup to highlight the versatility of this space.

The glory of unveiling a hotel is highlighting the efforts that go into bringing such luxury experiences to their guests.

Filmages often go behind the scenes to capture these moments; mood lighting, place setting and a whole lot of teamwork!

Although it may seem simple to film an empty box, we creatively used timelapses, camera angles and visual tricks to truly showcase the flexibility of the Murray Hotel's ballroom.

After a successful soft opening, it was only a matter of time until The Murray Hotel was paid a visit by these bringers of good luck and fortune.

Balanced by vibrant Chinese New Year themed b-roll, we packaged scenes of the dancers into this video greeting card.

It was a humbling opportunity to work with one of the best Lion Dance troupes in Hong Kong, Ha Kwong Cheong Group, with whom we collaborated to channel the true spirit of this celebration.

It takes a village to open a hotel so the old addage goes... maybe... ok not really.

But when it comes to opening a new hotel it takes a strong team, dedicated to creating an impeccable guest experience.

Every staff member is a key player and we went behind the scenes to see what it took to be a part of The Murray Hotel team.

The "Old Town Central" initiative by the Hong Kong Tourism Board celebrates the convergence of culture, arts, heritage and cuisine with a series of five walking trails running close to The Murray.

We caught up with Anthony Lau and on of Hong Kong's many visitors to talk about what makes this city so vibrant.

If you think that mixing the perfect cocktail is an art, try filming a series of "how to make... " cocktail videos. Focus on the female mixologist... Not masculine enough Feature the whole back-lit glass wall with bottle display… Too wide Show the ingredients in extreme macro… Too close Too many details... Not enough step-by-step information Fortunately Filmages came to the rescue, shaken not stirred.

The right talent make all the difference! We were fighting against Nature when a typhoon came crashing down on our shoot. We had to adapt fast; turning our camera angles away from the falling rain, adjusting the lighting to make up for the gloom outside and then applying every colour-correcting trick we know during post-production. Although it's not always fun and games we want this is kind of energy in front of the camera, as well as behind. 

If you are still having trouble deciding which artwork to feature in your living room, imagine sourcing artworks for an entire Contemporary-Chic 5 star hotel... To feature the decoration elements we choreographed our camera moves to be wholly zeitgeisty.

In 1969 the then British Administration of Hong Kong commissioned young architect Ron Philips to design what was to become a major post-modernist landmark. How The Murray was to become a flagship of luxury brand's Niccolo Hotels was left to us to show and tell, using a bespoke mix of interviews, timelapses and breathtaking drone shots to create this pre-opening movie.

Ever-hungry social media platforms put an incredible pressure on marketing departments to produce cost-effective yet quality content. Instagram is particularly keen on very short loops, short enough to be viewed before the inevitable swipe-left. We were commissioned to produce original Infinite Loops that would get the selling points across while being creative and shareable. The results include Bird-headed Cocktail Lovers, a Jacuzzi Cosmonaut, a few Magic Sunglasses, and a Boomerang Dancing Duet....

For many Hongkongers, the Murray is more than a familiar sight; it's a living memory, and a dream realised by the architects involved in it's construction and recent renovation. We revisit interviews with Ron Philips and Colin Ward to remind ourselves, and the audience, how the Murray was designed to hold its place in Hong Kong's ever changing cityscape.

Who could truly enjoy their stay in a 5 star hotel without sharing the luxury experience with their beloved pet?
