Examples of various events, parties and corporate work that we do as photographers. We are specialists in live green screen photography as you will see. We also do blue screen photos, chromakey photos or anything else you may call them.
We attended a brilliant party organised by FMI Group for Sony Ericcson to treat the Carphone Warehouse group as a thank you for their work. The party was at the Circus bar in Covent Garden. We had a very small space to work in but managed to put up a small green screen and floor. Lighting was tricky, no room either side for the usual shoot through umbrellas to light the green screen, so we had to position wireless flash guns on the floor lighting up the screen. We shot the guests using a softbox with another wirless flash inside, all driven by the built-in commander flash on the Nikon D700.
We managed to get a viewing station set up on a counter, with the Mitsubishi Click system powering a 9550 photolab. We shoot wirelessly using a Nikon D700 with a low light 24-70mm f2.8 pro lens linked by a WT-4 to a hub. As we shoot photos are sent to the viewing station. Guests choose the pose they like then the images are sent to the Click system. Elaine was operating the Click's green screen software. We had designed a selection of Circus themed backdrops all branded with Sony's logos.
The most popular by far was the Tiger in the cage, followed by a circle of fire, then a more subdued harlequin backdrop to match the Circus theme. There was entertainment all night, Burlesque dancers, trapeze artistes, Hula dancers and stilt walkers, who all performed on the stage which is right in the centre of the venue. But we were by far the most popular attraction, absolutely mobbed all night, and by the end of the evening 280 large 9"x 6" photographs had been shot, editted, green screened, printed and framed!
Just to prove you don't have to spend thousands to get great wedding photos and a video of the photos set to music!
Had a good time at St Leonards Church in Flamsted, very interesting and ancient place, dates back to the Saxons, so no flash allowed. Sun was in and out and I had to move all around the Church using secret doors shown me by the friendly Verger and Vicar. I was allowed onto the High Altar and got some lovely shots of the Rood Screen and Stained Glass.
Anyway, have a look, thanks Caroline and Martin for letting me enjoy your wedding. And thanks for the message from Sunny Barbados saying you loved the photos and the video. For all the photographers who claim it takes weeks, these were all editted and on the website for the couple to view on honeymoon the next day. And the video was finished and up too, even though we went straight to a Masonic Masked ball after the wedding.
Special thanks to nikon for the D700's low light capabilities and the gorgeous f2.8 24-70mm lens. Did use the SB-900 outside for fill though, when the sun came out it was real winter sun!
Had a lovely early start for a Sunday morning, photographing the youngsters swimming and running in the CoSTa Aquathlon this morning. Photos are up at www.fullframeevents.co.uk, here's a link to the video we made for them for fun.
here's a video I've just finished for Caroline and Sarah. I shot their Civil partnership today and although I only got back at 6pm all the photos are editted and up on the website at www.fullframeevents.co.uk under galleries, and I've made the video as well. Guess this proves that if you get the photos right in the camera you don't need to spend days post proeccesing them :)
Got your attention! We had a cracking day out with Eventwise rewarding the hard working employees of Frank PR. They are the most innovative PR company around with the most amazingly designed website www.frankpr.it, well worth a look.
So when we were asked to do something different to help make their day out memorable we were happy to help. Emily (Frank PR) and Oliver (Eventwise) had organised a Roman themed day with gladiator battles, toga making, a huge feast with the afore-mentioned naked ladies covered in fruit (well, not for long!) and somehow arranged sunshine.
We were there to capture the action, and then in the evening we opened our green screen studio to the Pimmed up workers. Two original swords from Gladiator and a choice of a dozen different themed backdrops soon had the photolab going flat out as we took, editted, printed and framed nearly 200 nine inch by six inch photos.
Ok, here's the naked lady.... if you ever want your employees to get their five a day this would work judging by the speed the guys from Frank undressed her. I shoot at 8 frames a second but by the time I had got there and focussed only the Ivy was left!
So thanks to everyone for a great day out, here's the video we made as a souvenir of the day, just for fun. I'll facebook it so you can share it around.
