A student from Tooting has been picked to produce promotional videos for Channel 4’s digital station More4.

Darius Duke, 21, was among a group of students from Middlesex University who has helped to design and produce instillations for the videos.

Darius spent two weeks at Jason Bruges Studios manufacturing the 400 mechanical flippers, motors and wiring units that have been used in the instillation.

The videos will be aired next month as part of a major rebranding of the station.

Channel 4 was so impressed with the student’s work that they have used the instillation as a showpiece at their headquarters in London.

Darius said: "It’s been amazing to be part of such a large and innovative project of this scale. Learning from the experts and seeing how they problem solve has been an invaluable learning experience."
