Hoku broke ground with his award winning music video for Jason Webley and Amanda Palmer's "Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn?" He and his sometimes directing partner, Adam Bolt, have made a name crafting high energy, fun, technical commercials under the moniker "Hoku & Adam." Their clients include Starbucks, Google, Lenovo and FedEx. They've also created award winning spots for National Geographic, Wilkinson Sword (by animating facial hair) and YouTube (using 18 styles of animation in one film).
Their 2020 music video for Katy Perry's "Harleys in Hawai'i" won the Webby People's Voice Award for Best Music Video.
Hoku also directed the 2014 documentary "Upaj: Improvise" which was broadcast nationally in the US on PBS World.
