Suthon founds production house

BANGKOK - Thai director Suthon Petchsuwan (pictured) has set up his own commercials production company, Mum Films.

The Thai director, who has made his name with ads for Oishi Green Tea and Soken DVD players, has teamed up with producer Surasak Vongthai.

The duo have already shot commercials for Disneyland in Hong Kong and MobileOne in Singapore and are soon to release a spot for a US-based advertiser.

Once the world’s most heavily awarded director, Suthorn is now ranked second in Thailand behind Thanonchai Sornsrivichai.
