Something for the weekend 4k video shoot with a Le Mans LMP2

Lola Coupe B08/80 LMP2

Today we did a quick location check, this weekend we are shooting a number of race cars that are soon to be up for sale. Included in the shoot plan will be a short video for each of the cars.

My check list was - available light, the physicality of working the location and if extra lighting would be required. I also asked for a few changes to the space.

As with my recent video productions we are filming in 4k using the amazing Canon 1DC.

There is a lot of internet chatter about 4k being hard to work with, on short productions where there isn't a great amount of post production I have fond it pretty straight forward. However if your system is not high end, the post production is high or for a lengthy feature you would have to think is it worth while for the extra investment needed for the final output.


Canon 1DC - I like the additional canvas space, weather sealing and shooting in C-Log

THE FASHIONISTO Exclusive starring Ben Waters @Dmen

Total look PRADA

Bellerophontes-British model Ben Waters does us the honor of appearing in our latest exclusive from London-based photographer and director Jason Harry. Connecting with fashion editor Demetrio Baffa Trasci Amalfitani and stylist Huna Eberndu, dandy styles with a flippant attitude are on the mind. From the nonchalant fur details of Prada’s latest to the contemporary luxury touch of Hermès, standing out from the crowd is an effortless gesture.

Model and friend Fabio Mancini (Men's editorial Italian Beauty) emailed me to tell 

me he  is now ranked as one of the SEXIEST MEN in the world. Alongside familiar

names such as David Gandy,John Kortayarena and Andre Velencoso.

Since we met last year he has been busy season after season with the Armani

brand so his inclusion to the SEXIEST MEN section is no surprise to me at all.
