Filming at IH London

Today we’re back at International House London, the world’s leading language school, filming lessons for an online training resource.

It’s a two camera shoot; the audio comes from a Sennheiser radio mic and a pair of Sennheiser ME66 gun mics. We’re using our two JVC GY-HM100s and some great new Lilliput HDMI monitors – these can also be used with an HD-DSLR if it has HDMI input.

“The Peak and the Pit” is David Lee’s new short film, currently in post-production.

Synopsis:
A writer throws himself from his hotel window far from home leaving only a telegram with a cryptic message scribbled on the back. Decades later, three people are each inspired by his death in very different ways. Prepared to change their lives because of it, which of them has grasped the true meaning of his final message?

More coming on David’s film…

It’s been a busy week or two; we have new clients and a very exciting new community venture, building on our relationship with local community website ChiswickW4.com – a proper announcement of that next week.

New clients in the last two weeks: Liberation Communications – healthcare PR based in our building… we edited b-roll for them, to send VNR reels of a very big medical story they have coming next week.

For Vencap International, based in Oxford, we did a 2 camera shoot (EX1 and JVC GY-HM100 matching nicely) – a top level corporate interview in SW1.

And for R5 Research of Chicago we’ve been filming the last 3 days in a viewing facility in W1 – thanks to Andrew Litt for stepping in at short notice.

For our client The Icon Partnership we shot product shots of Jane Packer’s upcoming fragrance range in our Chiswick studio – tiny glass bottles with brightly coloured flowers beside them presenting quite a challenge in terms of correct exposure!

And meanwhile… our cameraman-director David Lee is in post-production of his new short film… editing on his MacBook Pro in his ‘other ‘ residence on the island of Elba!
