A Timelapse film evening & BTS talk

Where We'll Go

Since the beginning of planning our latest timelapse film Where We'll Go we had this idea to host a film evening. Through this we wanted to show our short film along with sharing some stories from behind the scenes and try and give people a sense of what we experienced while shooting. When we started to specialise in timelapse, it quickly became evident that the general public has a lot to learn about timelapse and what it takes to get the shots, so we wanted to shed some light on the matter ;-)

Shooting timelapse in Big 5 country...

Categories // Behind the Scenes

Timelapse in Africa is not for the faint-hearted!

Shooting timelapse in Big 5 country...

Wait! What?? An assignment to shoot timelapse in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve... Is this for real?
We were super stoked to be commissioned by Londolozi to shoot some timelapse for a very special occasion that took place at this luxurious 5 star lodge. Not because we will experience 5 star treatment, but because we get to shoot in the African bush!
To date, this has been one of the best assignments E.V.E.R !

A timelapse film in the making - Jan 2015, on location in the Karoo

The BTS story of

Oh wow! Where on earth to begin with the memories from our most recent timelapse venture...
The Karoo in South Africa is such an incredible location! But it's harsh, it's hot and it's dry! At the same time it's so forgiving. It's so peaceful. It's majestic and magical. It's a destination like no other and that surely must be a good enough reason why we can't get enough of this place...

Indoor Longterm Timelapse Project - Racklock

Racks & Shelf Installation for Midas

It's always great if your client allows you to do your job in the best possible way. This time Racklock did just that! Not only is this the second project that we shot for them but this time around they understood the necessity to use 4 cameras for the duration of the entire project.
Not just that, it's also one of the biggest once-off installations to date hence the importance to capture something truly impressive.

BTS while on assignment with Black Envelope Films

Builders Warehouse - a TV Commercial

Rigging up a 10m dolly.... Sure, that's no problem! We've done longer than that before! Technically that was for a timelapse set-up and this time around Black Envelope Films needed us to rig for realtime video moves. Repeat moves that is. Timed with precision. For VFX work this precision in repeat moves are crucial. And this is what we can do! Oh, and did we say the dolly needs to carry a fully kitted RED DRAGON?? Nothing that the Shukuma PRO dolly can't handle ;-)
