Trafalgar Triumphs

I’m in London again with Howard from Red Lobster filming the ceremony for the 2013 Golden Bridge Awards. This year we we’re asked to film the event for both the British Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and the Belgian-Luxemborg Chamber of  Commerce. This meant visiting London and Brussels to film presentations of the shortlisted companies, making two […]

Keep the Faith

The Faith Through A Lens photography competition has been running since 2010. I was approached by Congregational and General Insurance in 2011 to film the award ceremony in Bradford. The next year the awards moved to London and another video production company was used,  but I was delighted to be asked to film this years […]

Cutting-edge Cutting

‘Going on the Road’ had a whole new meaning this week. Our regular client Northern Gas Networks asked us to make a video to help explain new technology used for detecting and repairing gas leaks. Over three days and three sites I found myself in the middle of busy roads, in mud, rain and sunshine. […]

Also also worth mentioning that the low light capabilities of the camera […]

Putting words on your mouth

The guys at IdeasBynet are always asking me for something a little out of the ordinary. This time we were making a TV commercial to promote their rebrand, something fresh and fun with loads of character. This was shot in their photo studio, lit with two 1.2kw MSRs through my diffuser frames and Dedos as […]

Park It Mister!

The lovely folks at Stress Free Parking asked me for a quick turn around video to demonstrate the new valet parking at their Luton Airport facility. After agreeing an initial filming outline, I arrived on the Friday – one of the hottest days of the year and the shoot went better than planned. Once I’d […]

Kirklees Kids

I’ve just complete a further 11 adoption films for Kirkless Adoption services. This time the children were all much younger, which has it’s challenges… Again, I’m finding the work to be really meaningful and humbling.

Antique Restoration is a well established and respected business in the city of York. Recently the team have learned new skills to help create bespoke furniture for their new venture – Man of Art.
