Nexus directors Alan Smith and Adam Foulkes first appeared in Stash in issue 2, way back in October 2004. Since then we’ve inducted 20 projects by the London duo into the Stash Permanent Collection and placed four of those on the cover.
Their latest work, for British snack food brand McVitie’s thru Grey London, finds them in familiar territory: crafting a sweet and warmly lit CG tale of a lonely crane operator who reconnects with his co-workers via a special delivery of tea and biscuits.
