Creating videos that work for your brand or business.

When we are discussing new video projects with clients, we like to take a little time to understand the story so far and also their new journey. So our conversations are to understand exactly how we can add to that DNA creatively.


Personal Training and Testimonials

In advance, we build an asset list to shoot and keep in mind the visual messages we would like to deliver, shooting we approach in a natural and unscripted way.

In the top film, we filmed two clients working with Fitness Coach Ste at the Hollinwood Muscle and Fitness Gym and then sat with them afterward and let them tell us in their own words in one take about their experience and thoughts, as an insight to others.


Feature Promo Film

We used some common assets in both films, intro, end sequence, and a few clips.

Artist Maddie Jaizani Photographed in the studio and on location in Manchester


Maddie Jaizani photographed in the studio and on location.



Its always a pleasure to create new images/ content for either the up and coming or the established artist.

Manchester Photographer Jason Harry


Equally adept in either natural light or the studio its my preference to shoot both to give the client options and also to offer them the opportunity to develop looks in a non rushed more authentic way, that's my style.

Dance Video Bodyshop for Laura Ann.

Dance video Bodyshop for Laura Ann was a great project involving 14 dancers and a whole load of rehersals, location scouting and more.

Laura-Anne wanted the video, she is a professional choreographer and dancer based in Manchester, she travels with her work internationally.

Since the age of 16 she has been working alongside the likes of, Alexandra Burke, JLS, Gwen Stefani, Kanye West, George Micheal, Pink, Katy Perry, Geri Haliwell, Jagged Edge, Mario & Omarion. enough to say she is a good dancer, experienced and open to new ideas.

I wanted this video to be light well with a slight tone, so it was captured with low contrast and a custom picture profile, knowing it would then only need minimal processing to achive the overall clean look.

We are not shooting any kind of RAW format here so tolerances for adjustments are low.

While I am on with all the pre production Laura is busy with rehearsals, we keep each other updated to make sure were on track.

Test shooting the workshop left gave me a sample from which to slice a section and work a jpeg image to perfect the adjustments required to the footage before the day of the shoot. I prefer to work this way to leave out any nasty surprises at post production and not get the look, think I could go into melt down otherwise.

Lighting the space used was easy, its a high end bodyshop right, so these guys don't work in the dark, pushing extra fill light from the front was going to be the order of the day.

Camera used Canon EOS 5d mkII

We had a small window to shoot the video, on the day of shooting from beginning to end we were in, set up, footage taken from two main locations, promotion shots made, and take down in two and a half hours.

To get the footage we worked the main sequences three times to make sure we had it right, that's the deal.

So arn't we cool doing the shoot in a short time, the EDIT oh my, three solid days for the main dance sequence plus another day or so making the beginning and credits.

Post shooting before edit, review to footage, identify the good footage to be used, then the order to run.

Editing sequence start at the beginning and sequence the movement to the audio, a tricky task.

Thanks to the fourteen dancers, the makeup artists, PROSPRAY for letting us shoot there.


To Laura and myself high five... making this video was an undertaking but a blast.

Dubfire at Sankeys.

Asked to cover the visit to Manchester by uber talent Dubfire to the venue voted Worlds finest Club Sankey's, my original plan was to capture a number of promotional shots.

Dubfire is the stage name for Ali Shirazinia, he left the comforts of a storied career as one-half of Grammy-winning duo Deep Dish in order to pursue new life as a producer.

Deep Dish are well known for providing house or dance remixes of tracks of famous stars such as Madonna, Cher and Gabrielle

When the Dubfire set started the atmosphere and the performance was really one not to be missed, so i captured it in a series of photographs.

The video has been made from some 1,500 photographs taken over the 3 1/2 hour set, they haven't been modified and almost entirely dropped in the timeline in the order taken.


The experience at Sankey's was an audio visual treat for all the Dubfire fans and Sankeys faithful that were in attendance, for those who missed it...

turn the lights off, turn your speakers up, press play.

Manchester Riots, 9th August 2011.

Manchester Riots, who can forget the spiraling events of 2011 that originally brought chaos and destruction to London.

It was Tuesday 9th August 2011

The footage you can see at the link below shows the devastation to shops and business in this area.

To get the footage and photographs I ventured through the areas capturing what I could just as the riots peaked and the crows moved on.

This is my video detailing the Aftermath, mostly from photographs showing the damage and looting captured with the Canon 5dMK2.
