Vol. 13

We don’t endorse letting off flairs at football matches, but if you are going to, you should at least film it with a drone. This volume of Cut Culture features some photogenic football fans, a revolutionary interactive short film, and an introduction to a photographer who you’ll be seeing a lot of in the future. Plus, we’re pulling back the curtain on our latest short for MrQ, featuring the best unintentional trick-shot blooper you’re ever likely to see.

Can’t beat the classics, right? This volume of Cut Culture brings you a brace of stop motion masterpieces. If that’s not enough, we’ll also take you behind the scenes of a Polish Prince’s Palace in which we recently filmed Aitch in the bathtub. And if you’re really still hankering for more, we’ll intro you to the talented bunch of photographers who we have been sending far and wide over the last few months to bring Mitre’s #DifferentLeague campaign to life.

Fondue and bovril, a match made in heaven. In this volume of Cut Culture, we’re bringing you an Alpine adventure to get the blood pumping, as well as a celebration of the FA Cup that’ll give you all the feels of football (if we do say so ourselves…). Speaking of Alpine, we’ll also take a peak behind the scenes of our latest shoot for BWT Alpine F1’s new partnership with Kappa. Completing the line-up, we’ll intro you to a set designer, art director and creative stylist - yep, those are all one person.

Vol. 10

So you think you know your history? This month’s Cut Culture is putting that to the test with a cinematic journey through the ages. It's also time to separate the real fans from the plastics, as we’re sharing a BTS look at our latest shoot with a brand that embodies proper football heritage. Topping it all off, we’ll give you an intro to one of the talented bunch who made our 5-day Mitre mission across the UK the success that (we think you'll agree...) it undoubtedly was.

We’re taking a look at the top of the food chain in this this volume of Cut Culture, with some heavyweight productions from Discord and EA Sports.
