Theatre time – Treasure Island

This is the time of year that gets me back into theatre photography, which I love.
It’s a huge challenge photographing the final dress rehearsal before the first night, as in most cases I have no idea where the action is going to be taking place on stage ! This requires constant rapid changes of exposure to cope with the varying lighting, as well as trying to focus through the fog haze.
This year’s performance of Treasure Island from Churcher’s College Senior School tested my skills to the limit with some exceptionally low lighting states in some of the acts, but I
think the results speak for themselves

Greenpeace video

Busy day yesterday filming with #greenpeace in and around Langstone Harbour. Four different locations, lots of script variations and dodging showers to film the aerial sequences with the drone. Thanks to Karen Pearsall for looking after some tricky sound issues (who knew wireless lavaliers could work that far away !)

Today’s office. Set up for 40 group shots of graduates and their families and just before a gust of wind blew over that lighting stand straight onto my car bonnet resulting in a painful dent.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All that happened to the excellent Good 400 flash unit was a cracked handle !
