Random Channel4 production

About a week ago Random went out on Channel4. I was really interested in it as I worked for a few days on the production for Channel4 to get some images for the promotion. Written and directed by Debbie Tucker Green and starring Nadine Marshall. Originally a stage play it has been excellently transformed for the television, check out the reviews and info here

Goalball GB competing at the London 2012 Paralympic Games

Looking through some old shots today and found some very relevant ones from a Royal Mail job from a few months ago. We had been asked to follow a few members of the London 2012 GB Goalball team that will be competing at the Paralympic Games. I would recommend anyone who thinks its easy to actually give it a go, I did and make a complete fool of myself, with the special blackout goggles on I could not get near the ball. Check out the official UK site for more information http://www.goalballuk.com/

Featured in the first 3 images are brother and sister Michael and Anna Sharkey as well as Simon Goodall.

Morocco 2010

Here are some images taken in Morocco last year while working on a Channel 4 job. We were shooting a mock documentary of Prince Harry getting kidnapped by the Taliban.

Mina

I shot a few tests with Mina last year, I was experimenting with different lighting, my idea was to use constant lighting so I would also be able to shoot little film clips also, which clients seem to want nowadays. Here are a few results from our experiments.

These are also the images that received a merit in the AOP Assistants awards last year.

THE PRE NEW

We were asked last year to shoot some publicity images for The Pre New! I will get as many shots from the day up soon but here are some images I just received back from John Deaville. I really like the style of retouching, slightly different from the original brief but loving what he has done.

FA shoot The Grove 2011

Some images from our shoot at the Grove Hotel during some recent England training camps.

New football group mocks

Finally I got the images back from my FA shoot and have the group mocks as they should be seen.

Updates at last

Well I have been giving the Blog a bit of a wide berth of late but have decided to get back into it and get more pictures and information up.

First up is the final shots from my Army shoot from last year.

Army Shoot

Simon and I were very fortunate to be invited along to an Army training facility to shoot some images with soilders who had just returned from a tour. Here are some of the behind the scene shots from the day take by Steve our Army contact. It was a great day to see what the guys have to deal with every day and the processes that they have to go through. I will be posting the final retouched images once they have been edited.
