Derek Sewell of Blink, Toronto and Josefina Nadurata of Reginald Pike have started their own Toronto-based production studio, Holiday Films. The studio has eight directors already, and its objective is to “provide original creative solutions” for clients, says Nadurata.

Check out the Holiday Film Reel. The couple at left comes from a grandiose Cadillac ad whose music reminds me of the alien diva from The 5th Element. (It’s probably the quickened tempo that strikes the memory.)

Spring’s here. Some people make babies. Others start production companies.
