Our last two productions for this term took place this week – it would have been nice to have a bit more warm weather in the forecast (considering both productions had exterior components), however rain or shine, we got it done!
First off on Tuesday was a spot for helping asthma sufferers using the “Buteyko Breathing Method“, where a couple spending a nice warm summer day in the park deals with an asthma attack using a special breathing technique.
On Thursday we made our way to Tsawwassen and onto the Boundary Bay beach to shoot a commercial for Kayotics Skimboards. Our actor made a fairly quick transition from his day-to-day work in a cubicle to a more exciting work locale.
Our two HD commercial shoots this week kicked-off with a spot for Neptoon Records, which caters to all musical tastes. Check out the image gallery for a couple of the more unusual examples you can find in the store.
Also this week was a commercial spot for ZipCar, a short-term car rental service available in the metro-Vancouver area. In this case, it’s particularly useful for short shopping trips, especially when your hands are full!
More commercials this week. We’re back from our Olympic break and back to work!
First up this week was a commercial for Fruit of the Loom underwear. Thanks to the kind folks at Knowledge: for allowing us to use their studio for the white cyc background.
Next up was a commercial for Purdy’s chocolates – allowing a young businesswoman who has a less than successful presentation, but melts the hearts of the board members with a box of tasty chocolates!
Coming up soon – our first commercial productions using our new P2-HD HPX-300 cameras. We are happy to be teaching tapeless workflows! When combined with our Facilis and Omneon servers, it’s a potent combination.
Our commercial productions this week fell into two categories: Cleaning Products and Drinking Products.
First up was SoftMoc shoe cleaner. Shot in-studio and on location, showing the product and giving an example of the real-world messes it might have to clean up!
Next was a commercial for Jim Beam Bourbon Whiskey – illustrating the hazards of attempting a romantic encounter when alcohol is involved…
Thursday’s shoot was on-location in New Westminster with a commercial for the “Old Spaghetti Factory”.
Some of our second-year students showed up with a bit of HD production gear to shoot behind the scenes video for use in a promotional video which should be showing up in a few weeks.
