After shooting and producing marketing videos for Harley-Davidson in 2009 we were delighted to be chosen to shoot the events again this year. Having any client book us for a second season is always a great compliment but when it’s somebody like Harley-Davidson we can’t help but feel extremely proud that they have chosen us again for 2010.

We’ve recently returned from the first of this years European events, the Euro festival which takes place in the French Riviera near St Tropez. Within a week of returning from the event Harley-Davidson like to send newsletters out to the Harley owners Group with news from the event and video clips showing highlights and winners of the custom bike show which is held during the weekend of the event. We work with Archant-Dialogue (Harley-Davidsons marketing agency) to produce these videos in time for the e-zine to be delivered.

Below is the highlight video that we’ve produced.

CEGA Group are one of the UK’s leading independent claims management and emergency medical assistance companies. We worked with CEGA’s marketing agency ‘design distillery‘ to produce two short videos to be shown at an awards ceremony and on the companies website.

This first video was shot on location at bournemouth airport where we used our steadicam system to produce stable shots whilst following the action during the patient loading sequence. We also had the pleasure of filming in one of the companies air ambulances during a flight from London to Bournemouth.

Digital agency “Cluster Digital” hired us to shoot footage for a flash microsite they were developing for Fujifilm UK. Promoting Fujifilm’s F200EXR camera, part of the microsite shows the benefits of Fujifilms EXR technology by playing the video and then overlaying graphical elements to highlight certain aspects of the images produced by the camera.

We shot the footage using a 35mm adapter and nikon 35mm lenses to achieve the “film-like” look that Cluster digital required.
