you don't know...

A couple of weeks back, I had the awesome opportunity to spend a day on Dartmoor assisting on the new promo for musician and artist Keaton Henson, directed by David Wilson with DOP Richard Stewart. Twas an amazing day, a great crew, and a beautiful end result. Here's a few pics from the day, and the promo, below... Big thanks to everyone involved... Good times...

a week of work in the west: part 2, day 2...

Our final day in Torquay was a busy one for all, hence the lack of photos... Running around from location to location trying to get all the shots on a tight schedule, often hindered by cloud and rain... Such is the ongoing battle with English weather. I think, all things considered, we did pretty well.
And so after another long day, an additionally long drive back to London, equipment and crew drop offs, our busy week came to an end. Big thanks to Rich for geeing it up, Danny for teaching me the gripping ropes and Jack and Murren for (occasionally) keeping me entertained on the long drives! Can't wait to get the crew together again! Woop!

a week of work in the west: part 2, day 1...

The second job of the week was a music video shoot for UK band Metronomy, in and around the English seaside town of Torquay. Our camera crew was unchanged, though this time working with the production team at Colonel Blimp and director David Wilson
Twas another early rise on Thursday and yet another fine spread for breakfast, (this time care of The Grand Hotel) before heading to the first location; poolside shooting with four lovely bikini clad ladies... It's a tough life for some...
Post lunch we were off to the picturesque Torquay Pier in the hope of lucking in to a stunning sunset. Unfortunately, it never quite materialised, but everyone worked hard to make the most of what Mother Nature offered...
After a long productive day, everyone wolfed down dinner by the bay and we cheers'd a couple o beers to Jack's 25th birthday... Despite Murren's keenness to take to the town in Torquay, the celebrations would have to wait...
