Thetford Forest - One of the natural wonders of the Suffolk/Norfolk border

Thetford Forest

Walking through Thetford forest can be a real place of tranquility with its natural beauty. Adding to that was a abundance of misty fog only intensifying the atmospheric mood. It was so quiet and peaceful. I thoroughly recommend a visit but remember to go early to avoid the rush.

All photography taken on my Iphone12pro.

Cumbria and Helvellyn

Cumbria and Helvellyn

Height Gained – 920 metres, Distance – 8.8 km

Helvellyn is the 2nd highest mountain in the Lake District and England.

It was my first time walking up Helvellyn. The top of the mountain was amongst the clouds and certainly made for some moody shots. The views on the other hand were limited. It was a fantastic experience. A brew at the top was certainly a highlight.

Taken on my trusty Canon 5D mk2, yes it’s still going strong.

Covid 19 - Filming Safely

Covid 19 - Filming Safely

I really hope you and your families are well during this very strange time.

As the lockdown starts to ease, we will all need to adapt to a new normal.

Like all businesses operating during Covid-19, I am putting measures to ensure me and my team are able to work safely and provide our clients with a great level of service.

I am currently working from home with fast internet connections, allowing me to provide editing and zoom meetings when required. Also while whilst out on location I have put procedures in place to minimise the risk of contamination.

Here are some of the measures I have taken :

If any of the crew are showing signs of a fever, or a new consistent cough before the shoot, we will provide an alternative member of the crew where possible or reschedule the shoot if agreed. No member of my team will be assigned to any task if showing symptoms.

Each member of our crew will wear a face mask and carry hand sanitiser with them.

All equipment will be wiped down with disinfectant before and after the shoot.

For sound, we will use a shotgun / boom microphone supported by a tripod where possible. If a lapel mic is the preferred choice, the lapel mic will be put down, the person being filmed will collect the lapel mic and will be told safely from 1-2 meters away on how to put the lapel mic on. As always, the lapel mics will be sanitised before use and after.

Our camera operator will remain at least 2 meters away from the subject being filmed where possible.

I look forward to working with you soon.

Best Wishes

Louis

NEW SHOWREEL 2020

SHOWREEL

Here it is, my new 2020 showreel. I’ve been so lucky to meet and work with some amazing people whilst creating the work I create. I would like to say a huge thank you to my clients and everyone that has supported me, in one or another. I’ve already started to get back out shooting which has been amazing, I’ve missed it. If you know anyone that needs a film or photography creating, please put them in touch.

Now get the popcorn, put the sound on max, full screen the video, sit back, relax and enjoy!

Life on lockdown

Life on lockdown

It’s all a bit surreal at the moment and not being able to leave the house, I decided to get the 360 camera out and film some puzzle fun. The 360 camera is a relatively new type of camera that has two lenses which allows you to capture a whole 360 degrees of the action. Later on in post production, you can then select the field of view.
