OUR BEST CINEMATIC WORK TO DATE! 😍🎬

We recently headed out with the incredible team at @kynren to capture the magic of their performance. A production of this scale demanded a truly cinematic approach, and thanks to the world-class performers, the raw footage was just as stunning as the final edit.

The project definitely had its challenges, but the crew came together beautifully to produce an epic promo we’re stoked to finally share. ⚔️

Watch until the final frame to see the true scale of this show! ⚡️

The Crew: 🎬 Prod/Dir: @chrisy__t 🎥 DOP: @daniel_patrick_vaughan 📋 1st AD: @gregson.dan 📋 2nd AD: @jaydawson__ 🗓️ Production Coordinator: @rgallagher2 ✂️ Editor: @jackmc1012

Huge thanks to the @Kynren team for the opportunity to work with such a special organization right here in the North East! 🙌

Ai back drops 😱

At the moment Ai isn’t playing a major part in environments or scenes for the virtual production approach, because unreal engine scenes are so complex and Ai struggles with a details 2D scene still!

But 2D static scenes still have their place in the world, #interviews , #elearning, #talkingheads and fast paced #socialads are all things that could benefit from the approach of static ai backdrops.

But lighting the scene is still crucial to making the ai backdrops come to life, the @blackmagicnewsofficial #ultimatte allows us to put the live backdrop on a large screen in the studio and then we light it was the @nanlite_global #pavoslim240b and it gives us absolutely control on how we need the light, especially between hard and soft lighting.

How would you light the scene and what scene would you make with Ai?

Outdoor lit scenes with sun can be really difficult to replicate on greenscreen because of the light spilling onto the greenscreen itself.

@nanlite_global lights have really allowed us to holm in on getting it close to being perfect. Their Pavo slim 240b has a quick setup time and comes with the grid and power unit for adjustable power for warm or cool tones 😎

How do you think we lit this scene, could you do better, if you can then how… tell us all what secrets you have tucked away!

Or do you want to feature in our next post, let’s collab! Send us a DM and let’s get a video made together 🤝

You don’t have to go far to find someone doing something epic in virtual production these days.

And these guys are nothing far from epic @khnmazhar @theanishdixit in their production studio repping the same setup as us @aximmetry and @vivemars 😎🙌🏻

We’re just starting to collaborate with these guys and we can’t wait to see where we both take our projects and clients together 🫶🤝

The super power of Virtual Production is having that live greenscreen key allowing us to light the subjects perfectly to the scene around them, making it look hyper realistic!

And check this little banger of a lighting set up all thanks to @nanlite_global with the fold away option for ease

What scene do you want to see us create next on the virtual production back drop!? Challenge us, we dare you!

Professional interviews need to look impressive!

Most often, these interviews feature the leaders of the business, and the quality reflects their experience, seniority, and the importance of their message.

However, a polished result isn’t always necessary. A simple talking head for social media isn’t as crucial as delivering a corporate message. In both instances, the significance lies in the messages themselves and how they are communicated through video—arguably the most effective medium for engagement. 😎🎥

If you’re a business struggling to understand how to leverage video at any level, you should talk to an experienced team like ours. Don’t miss out on utilising a tool that is one of the best in the toolkit!
