Lucy the Human Chimp This was my first larger project using an LED volume and seeing the capabilities of a virtual set. It was a pleasure working with @madewithvero during the prep period and learning with them along the way. I’m normally pretty against fancy tech as I would always prefer a simpler approach, but this was a joy to see and use VP to tell our story 🌈 Broadcaster - @channel4 / @hbomax Production Co - @keofilms Virtual Prod Co - @Madewithvero Exec producer - Matt Cole Producer - Bridget Appleby Producer coordinator - @shaykigh Virtual production producer - @poburke Director - @parky74 1st AD - @andrewvanneck DOP - 🙋🏼‍♂️ 1st AC - @camilarolling Gaffer - @jacklilley Spark - @radicaltommy Sound - @soundellie Production design - Caroline Grenville Morris HMUA - @josieconnellmua Production secretary @maddieireland COVID supervisor - @bristoldp Studio - @bandstudios Lighting hire @visualimpactuk Kit hire @cinewest Screen hire - @productionav

Excited to share the full visual for Evolve by @scalerband , featuring @iamtxn_ 🧿📽️ Scaler has always put live audio-visuals at the forefront of their music and performances. For this piece, we wanted that same energy to exist in visualiser form. Set in a dystopian-like world, the visuals don’t just surround Tlya, they begin to shape her. As the track builds, she becomes increasingly intertwined with these evolving forms, her identity emerging through shifting landscapes of fire, water, shadow and abstraction. Her figure is reshaped, blurred and reborn within them, creating a hypnotic journey of transformation. Refreshing to let go of control and watch the visuals unfold so organically, amplifying their connection to the track. Huge love to the talented team that made it possible!

Mr Soubry - Everyday Life Fun one from a while back over in Belgium. @samhbuchanan at the helm featuring some super tight timings and in camera SFX. All on the Angenieux 24-290mm with some wild hand operating. #dop #lensaddiction #filmlighting #arri #cinematographer #musicvideo #film #eyecandy #camerarigs #arri #transitionshot
