So I haven’t really posted anything in a little while. It’s not because I haven’t been working it’s more due to the fact that I didn’t feel like I had anything really worthy of posting so decided to save cluttering up the dashboard. Anyway I’m now back at my parents for Xmas and I’ve got a few very relaxing days seeing friends and family before I’m back to London. As some of you may be aware this is the quiet season for work but and I know a fair few people were having extended holidays due to the lack of work but fortunately I’ve been really busy and I’m so thankful for it as it kept me out of the house but also had some income too. The last job of the year was a music promo using the lovely Arri Alexa plus which can be seen in the pictures above. I thought I’d share these with you as I absolutely love this camera and it is by far my favourite digital camera to work with. Anyway I have to finish wrapping my presents but I hope everyone has a fantastic Xmas and New Years.
For the past couple of nights I’ve been focus pulling on A cam on a multi-cam Arri Alexa shoot. It was pretty much all night exteriors and last night we spent a couple of hours on a low-loader driving round various parts of London. Unfortunately I didn’t manage to get anymore photos due to the timetable we were on. I’m now spending the day shifting my body clock back to normality but also doing prep work for a short I’m DP’ing from Thursday through till Sunday this week.
I haven’t really posted anything lately as I didn’t feel like I had anything worthy of sharing with you so rather than posting for the sake of it I decided to hold fire. I’ve been quite busy recently as I’ve been focus pulling on various jobs but I’m also in prep for a short film that I’m going to be DP’ing as of next week for a few days. However enough of that! I want to share a trailer with you which I focus pulled on earlier this year with a very talented cast and crew. The drama has been shot in order to “challenge the fear and misunderstanding that surrounds HIV”. We shot it on the Arri Alexa and it really was an amazing project to work on, I enjoyed every minute of it, partly due to the cast and crew who were involved but I think more specifically how filmmaking was being used for a really beneficial cause.
In order to watch the trailer just click on the link and then click on ‘Watch the Trailer - Undefeated’. If you enjoy this then please reblog it as it is a genuinely worthy campaign.
Literally my hero!
Inanis Aedes by Meradi Omar. Funky video, great fluidity and movement. Felt very much like watching Third and Seventh video which can also be found on vimeo.
