Short Video from a Recent Fashion Shoot
March 15, 2010
This is a little video from a recent shoot for GangUp Magazine, a side-project fashion magazine from Kevin Mason that we are heavily involved in the production of. Tom Chambers who has previously made some great videos for us whilst interning here as apart of his course at University of Brighton, shot all the footage and Kevin threw together a little edit.
We are trying not to give too much away about the final shots, as the Magazine is due for release soon- but this was all using natural light, in a location Kevin has been itching to shoot in for about 5 years- but has apparently never found the right reason. The Stylist Emma Sandham-King (who still hasnt set up her tumblr blog- so cant show you the ideas behind the shoot…sheesh…) came up with the concept for this shoot. We went to check out the location two days before, clear any obvious needles and broken bottles out the way, and check the lighting for mid afternoon.
On the day of the shoot, as is always our luck, the Fire Escape and Alleyway was full of workmen, servicing some air-con units, which meant we were a bit cramped for space, but allowed the model to get changed in an open Fire Door. Its certainly not all glamour in the world of our fashion shoots, and to make things worse it was freezing cold, a real numb your fingers day- and of course we were only shooting leotards… Click this link to see a pic on my blog (its safe for work)

I’m glad you released this…’cause I just wasn’t that excited about it.. in fact, I was probably gonna pass it up for the issue of Farming Equipment Monthly that comes out end of March.
