We created a mood board of the type of shots our client wanted. We spent the next few days adding and removing images from that board until we finally settled on the look we wanted to achieve.
With a rough idea of what was needed, we headed to the studio for a test. We wanted to refine what we’d initially selected and get a locked-off lighting setup ready for the shooting day.
With the lighting sorted, we needed to get the models booked. With the help of Laura (producer), we had a casting day and met about 55 – 60 models. We settled on 16.
We arrived at Pear tree Studio near Old Street in London. We had a large team with us for the 3 day project so making sure we had a well-organised schedule of exactly what was needed when was really important.
On bigger jobs, time seems to run a little quicker than normal and Romain was great at keeping us on our toes and making sure we kept to schedule.
Ruth was on hand to make sure all of the models were dressed and ready to go on time.
On longer shoots, we like to keep the mood upbeat as everyone inevitably gets a little tired. This usually involves some music and Paul’s Welsh sense of humour.
