A Fish Called ..... Marilyn

Hi guys,

Last week we told you of the sad demise of our little May. One half of our  pet Goldfish duo along with James. See Blog here for details and reassurance I'm not going mad!). James spent a few sad days on his own, getting lonely and not knowing why (poor memory!) He spent ages in his corner, starring at his fishy reflection spitting, sucking up gravel and then out again in an insane cycle of animal instincts.  We really thought that this would be the end for him and we would have to replace the tank with a bunch of flowers, coffee machine, work desk for Studio 2 clients or something inanimate, simple, low maintenance and boring but ultimately not sad. There was to be a good ending to this story. We purchased a lovely bunch of new fish for James to play with. Now he's the smallest fish in the pond and all this new activity is keeping him on his....flippers, fins, scales, gills etc. Please meet Marilyn (red lips) and the twins. They are completely identical and impossible to tell apart, one darts one way, the other followers in a harmonious union. Like water based, gold medal standard, synchronised swimming! 

Camberwell Studios are proud to present the 'Indie Membership Scheme'!

‘Young? Creative? On a very tight budget?’ Then this could be the scheme for you!' 

Camberwell Studios have worked with many young creative’s living in south London (and working in Shoreditch!) that have many smaller personal projects on the go, but maybe don’t have the budget for a full professional set-up. 

Designed for Indy producers, solo artists, students, novices, Camberwell Studios recommended partners and previous clients. Independent film-makers who can operate last minute, and can get a small crew together to put those storyboards, pub ideas and graduate masterpieces into a visual reality…

…FOR THE FRACTION OF THE COST!

The aim is to provide very affordable studio space for creative's that have tight budget constraints, have their own kit and can work to last minute call ups.

'Looking for a Studio, in green, with camera op, for a half day?

The Studio’s come pre-lit with dolly, track, mini-jib, black-out drapes and all of the kit you would need to film your masterpieces. Set up is provided by a professional technician so you get the availability email, you book, we plan, you turn up and shoot!
If you become an Indy Membership Member and If we have a slot free in one of our Green screen Studio spaces that week then you will receive an email alerting you to the availability of our Studios and if you have projects that have been sat on the backburner for a while, then this is the perfect opportunity to book with us at a very lost cost.

Indie Membership Scheme could be used for:
• Music videos, EPK’s, performance recording
• Development projects
• Test shoots, 
• Pilot shoots 
• Game show format testing
• Set build days
• Training sessions

Joe See and his very own music video (above) was a perfect example of how the Indie Membership can work for indie artists. Joe was a chef for the Queens gairds at Buckingham Palace and he really wanted to make a video. He arranged to come in a few days before his ideal shoot date. We booked him a Studio, camera and operator and he completed the edit himself. He has never worked in film before yet his results are fantastic.

We have received some very good feedback for the Indie Membership Scheme and lots of filmmakers have been giving us their ideas.
Its FREE to join, all you need to email to register your interest, a small section about yourself and a reason why you wish to be included into this scheme Then you will be added to the mailing list for updates, offers and low cost, last minute Studio space that is hard to say no to!

As the scheme above provides last minute, affordable studio space to members don't forget 
Studio 1 is already fantastic value. We provide a friendly, flexible service and you can book Studio 1 or 2 by clicking here. 

Others that have used Studio 1 over the past few weeks is an up and coming group called Alt-J. 
From now on Blogs will pay special tribute to bands who have recently used the studio and their work is of excellent merit. Good enough to listen to over and over again as they set-up for repeated takes. Music so good that it sounds good when played through a wall, in reverse, in double time or only half way through. It also has to sound good with random drum sounds as the drummer mimes certain bits then really hits it when theres no other way to hit the drums! 

Alt-J

alt-J (∆)’s name takes a little explaining. Pronounced “alt-J”, the delta sign is created when you hold down the alt key on your computer keyboard and punch ‘J’ on a Mac computer. The symbol has a deeper meaning for the band, as guitarist/bassist Gwil Sainsbury notes, “in mathematical equations it’s used to show change,” and the band’s relatively new name came at a turning point in their lives. 
http://www.facebook.com/altJ.band

Agile Films who were making their video are super duper nice. We cant show any pictures or even discuss what was being filmed (all very hush hush exciting etc) but its safe to say the track sounds great and we wish them luck. 


Please continue to enter the prize draw and send us your ideas as to what you would make with the Prize draw worth upto £1000!

A word from the winner in May -  Congratulations - Jamaine Obeng: 


"I was really surprised to hear i had won the competition, I think it's great the guys at Camberwell Studio's gave people to chance to win a day in the studio, for unsigned artist like myself it is a great opportunity and can't wait to get shooting"

I am a 23-year old Musician/Producer/Videographer from North-West London, my goal with my music has always been to create a unique blend of all the different sounds around me, while most importantly telling a story. I try to include all types of music, from the Early sounds of Soul/Motown and Rock, to modern Hip Hop, Grime, Pop, Indie and beyond. I am currently working on a new album entitled 'Stars & The Moon' and hope to shoot a video for one of the tracks on it
Given the importance of visuals with modern music i try to look carefully at the visuals which represent my music, i really hope to do something different, given this opportunity to use Camberwell Studio's will be a great chance to create a special piece to accompany some of my latest music and I am really looking forward to it!

To a fish tank in the sky

Hi,


I entered work a few weeks ago to find 'Top Gear's James May trying to get his motorbike (see pic below) through our corridor. Quite a surreal start to the day. This was to be one of many random additives to the scientific formula for the new series of  'James May's, Things you need to know' Series 2, which was shot using our Studio 2 again. Readers of the blogs will remember last year that we adopted one of the 1st series's props, in the form of 2 goldfish. One we named James, and the other? Unsurprisingly, was called May. (We hoped May was a girl and tested several scientific contributors on the exact sex of the fish. I think that on these particular shoots the contributors were astrophysicists and brain surgeons rather than marine biologists so their guess was as good as ours!) 

James was re-united with the name-sakes fish who bore no resequence to Mr May whatsoever. I wait with baited (excuse the pun) breath for the new series as the first series  taught me a lot about science and comes highly recommended by Camberwell Studios. Coming soon to BBC 2.
  
Obfishuary:
At the time of going to digital press we have sad news for you. May, the goldfish mentioned above, died on Sunday 3rd June 2012. Please see her previous blog here for some key moments in her life and see the poem below for a summary. 



My dear sweet fish has gone away
He said, "I'm sorry friend, but I can't stay.
"You may be sad and you may cry,
"But all that's born one day must die.
"For though I've gone to that Tank Above
"I'll remember always that you gave me love."
And so I dried my tears and then
Said not "goodbye", but "We'll meet again.".
My goldfish, my friend, though we must part
You'll be in my thoughts and swim in my heart.

Prize draw winners info now. Congratulations to the 4th winner. J.Alberto Cerillo.
Beto (for short) is still finalising his project. Beto has been very busy so he's been working hard getting all his elements together. The prize is designed to give creative talents a chance to build their portfolios and in the case of the previous winner Neil Genower, It has been very difficult to tie down Neil as he's is very busy with bookings. So on the one hand he has lots of work on his plate already, which is great, but it also means we may have to give the prize away as Neil simply has no time to organise everything. We are waiting on his final date to shoot. Stay tuned because it could be very special if he finds the time!


Also in prize-draw news.
Sarah Bick, from the March draw is furiously editing away somewhere but has sent the below action shot as a taster. This is what she had to say about here piece and I shall try not to give it all away: 



'I've been thinking that the best format to make the most of the studio day, is to make a test commercial, responding to an online brief. I love adverts, and wanted a project to try more compositing and animation ideas, so really looking forward to this. The technique will be heavy on editing, but I can film all of the material quite swiftly with greeenscreen.
A feel-good 30 second film, documentary camera-style, and a fantasy composited end.'

Sarah was making a Cola commercial where someone enters into a bottle of coke for a big party full of balloon sized bubbles, air hostess style cola girls, tracking markers and funny hats. I can't wait to see the finished article. Sarah and the whole team were really really lovely and we wish them all luck, especially the caffeine addict who shall remain nameless. Chances are she is still shaking. You know who you are!

Quick off the blogs

Hi Blog readers and all those who continue to enter our prize draw,

Prize draw winner for April has been announced and notified.

Congratulations to Jose Alberto Cerillo 

(or Beto for short)

Sorry to those who missed out but you can still enter for our May Draw here.

The previous winner, Sarah Bick, has booked some time to come in and use our studio 1 for a video and plans to use the project to build on her portfolio.

Aprils winner, Beto is going to visit the studio to discuss what project has has in mind. Sarah Bick the previous winner in March is very nearly ready to come in an use the space.

The Free Studio Day we offer has led to some very interesting ideas from parties. Some have never ever made a film, some are old hats and have never had full creative control over their shoots and would love the opportunity to make something new and different. Most have worked mainly in corporate video and have not had the time to dream and realise their visions so we hope the prize draw winners can make a piece that they can really be proud of, and not just happy it's been signed off!


Best to explain the title now. Michael Johnson, Olympic Medallist, world record holder (until Usain Bolt beat it!) shot a video in Studio 2 for and Olympic project. There is not much to say about it, very polite, very efficient. I was going to start with a pun or one-liner but ll leave to Tim Vine to that! (see below). 


'I continually asked the track coach about joining the team but he just kept giving me the run-around.'

The Studio welcomed, a much slower off the sprinting blocks, Ian Poitier and his friend and client, Per, who runs and teaches for a company called Hollywood Camera-work. 
 Ian and Per had a students with a range of film and non-film based expertise visit our Studio 1 to understand and learn about motion tracking, placing tracking markers and every step in between. Using our chromakey green paint with 1 part black to 30 parts green will give you a good key-able colour to paint tape for adding tracking markers to the wall. The seminar by Hollywood Camera-work guys was invaluable training for anyone delving into green screen for the first time and experienced pro's who want a try at some new technology.

We also welcomed Jenya to Studio 2. Jenya was making a surprise video for her fathers birthday to be shown in  her home town in Ukraine. Jenya was holding up boards with Russian text (similar to the link below from' Love Actually')  to show on a big screen at her old man's bash.

This was combined with her brothers rap video and their Grandmothers music video! We wish her Dad a very happy birthday indeed!


What a busy week I think you'll agree and as I sit here awaiting Studio 2 to finish for the day (we are flexible with wrap times unless its the  next European Cup and England are playing in which case they have to finish on time!) I am sitting here thinking of one-liners to come up with the next section this trusted blog. We also welcomed Tim Vine to the studio to shoot some sketches for a video. Tim came, he saw, he took his trousers off, put them back on again, ate us out of bacon sandwiches, walked in a puddle and generally made us laugh all day with his requests. What a thoroughly amiable, nice and funny gentlemen and we wish him luck.

See his website link here for some very funny one liners .

What would make this piece better? A great piece of camera kit that's what! We have been using a great hire company the supply us, and our clients with the all the top kit. Please see Genesis Hire for all of your kit needs. And now a word from our friends...

Who's been watching Britain's Got Talent? Not me. I have a life (I was visiting my Mother, alphabetising my CD collection, washing my hair and sleeping, all are more exciting than BGT) Nevertheless the show last year, for me, was brightened up by the inclusion of a group of young lads by the name of New Bounce who got to the semi-final of ITV's flagship show last year.

 They came in to shoot a video in Studio 1 and If I do say myself there was one of the band who stood out for his resemblance to a young Michael Jackson and he certainly had the moves and voice too. We wish them, their Mums (they'll hate me for saying that!) and the agent all the best luck.

Peace and Blog

Hi Prize winners and readers of  all of our Blogs,


Last weeks blog detailed Sarah's plans for her January prize win (see here for her blog/bio/prize details) 
Sarah has completed her shoot and is now editing. Sarah came in for a pre-production meeting, discussed the storyboard, style, tech elements and logistics ready for her shoot the following week. 
This process gave us a great insight into the challenges of planning the shoot and It also gave us some good ideas for the February winners project too. 


Sarah decided to use her Free Studio Day Prize as an opportunity to make a music video far a song called 'Reaction' for an artist. Roberta's  Facebook page can be seen here:  

Roberta with her single ' Reaction'

Sarah used studio 1 and shot in monochrome and had a big emphasis on shadows and light in high contrasts.
Using 2x 2kw Fresnel's we managed to created angular lines and depth to the space in Studio 1.  When we added our smoke machine it gave the room more dimensions and levels for the dancer to move in. 
The whole crew got creative with flashing images, back lights, moving lights which is all part of the prize. See kit available to the winners, and all potential clients, here.

Dancer: Alize Biannic. Alize has skills in contemporary dance, ballet and other art forms. 

She is a fantastic talent and her Facebook profile can be seen here. Click on her name above link for her acting and modelling roles at Starnow.

This was our 1st prize winners shoot and Sarah and her team were really lovely and we hope that this prize, along with the other winners shoots, give them a piece of work to be proud of and raise their profile as film-makers. Sarah was a great director who had a clear vision, flexible work ethic and an extremely creative eye and we all wish her the best of luck. We are sure Sarah was thankful as she made us a beautiful Camberwell Studios logo out of broken mirrors and tiles. It will take pride of place in our lobby area for all to view! See below:

A word from our winner:

''The idea for the film was based around the space we were given to work with
I have a keen interest in performance arts and immediately decided to produce a film featuring a lengthy dance sequence and this combined with music led to us producing a music video working with two talented artists, both Alize and Roberta DeFrancia''
''The final video will show strong links between the dance sequences and the vocal performance as the narrative reveals the dual personality of the character''.
''The full music video will be kept under wraps until the summer release of the single on iTunes but for now we have put together this featurette which in itself has its own standalone narrative and works as an individual film.

''We had a fantastic time working at Camberwell Studios and received hands on support from the studio Manager, Sam Parkinson who is very creative and has a great eye for detail. The mosaic piece is just a small way of saying thank you to the studio for this great opportunity.''

So that's the January winner. Hopefully on her way to building her portfolio more. Onto our Febuary winner 

Neil Genower, who visited the studio to claim his prize.

Neil claiming his prize. He was happy to win!, just caught in him in the wrong moment in time. Think its when I told him that the January winner made us a present!!!!!!  ; )

 Neil has been a photographer for years and has since turned his hands and his DSLR lens to shooting videos. He mentioned he has been in the business for years and winning this prize will be the 1st time he has created his own piece and relished the opportunity to use the space as he saw fit. We talked about what elements the prize included. We offer the winner a Studio 1 or 2, pre-lit to requirements, camera/operator, sound capture, dolly/track, mini-jib and a studio assistant to help them get the most out their day. Neil has a few ideas, one is a music video, the other may well be a silent movie involving a round table poker game. The film will show the detailed expressions of the players, subtle body languages and tells. All sounds very exciting and the next blog will reveal all.  

March's winner has also been announced!!!!

Congratulations to Sarah Bick!

Bloggers delight

Hi Everyone,

Prize draw winner for Feb has been announced and notified.

Congratulations to Neil Genower!

Sorry to those who missed out but you can still enter for our March Draw here.

The previous winner (see Jan winners blog here) Sarah has booked some time to come in and use our studio 1 for a photo shoot and plans to use the project to build on her portfolio.

Feb's winner - Neil Gowner is going to visit the studio to discuss what project has has in mind. Sarah from the previous January winner is very nearly ready to come in an use the space.

A word from our sponsor (well our lunch sponsor anyway!) We are pleased to introduce... Brunchies Deli Bar. 

We send all of our clients there as we know we can guarantee the best service and food and good prices. Run by Ozzie and his team they can rustle up some riggers grub or prepare a hearty corporate clients meal at very short notice.

The video embedded on Ozzies site (seen here) was a small and simple creation from our sister company, Webvideos, who create short, yet innovative films for small businesses who want to give a face to their expanding products and services.

Also this week we have been looking into buying the new Canon C300 and have received some very mixed reviews. Maybe it is in the teething stage of its development. Hopefully after a few more shoots with feedback we can comment further. There was a problem with the lack of a 10bit output but this seems to be a rare request.

(Looks great!)

Positive comments include:

- Increased light sensitivity
- EF lenses on a proper camcorder, without the need of expensive adapters
- 4:2:2 50MBit codec
- Proper batteries (they last FOREVER, we got almost 5 hours out of one of the big ones
- No aliasing or moiré

See all of the below links and hopefully this will give you a better idea as to its uses and functions.

The Canon C300 with an EF mount was used for the last weekends music video shoot involving a beautiful old Volvo. 

Using back projection, snow, wind, water and bright sunlight they chartered the journey of a newly married couple in their 1^st drive into their new life. Wrought with danger perhaps? Well, maybe not so as after the logistics of cleaning up the snow and water they had run out of time for the danger element in the story. Maybe all is well for the new couple? Stay tuned for final edit.

We also welcomed Disney who were shooting a sting for a new project called Karate Party involving some pretty impressive Kung Fu fighting. Sadly the Karate experts hapless victims were a bunch of Easter eggs (an Easter promo) There was not even any for the crew! The Karate expert gleefully smashed through chocolate eggs in slow motion which looked amazing. If you have kids and are up at with them to watch TV then tune in!

A Blogment Jaxx

Hi to all Production Show and BVE attendants (and of course those who couldn't make it too!)

It was great to see you all down there and I hope you built an ever growing wish list of kit that caught your eye? Maybe you caught some incisive seminars or just met some great contacts? We had the chance to leave our stand and explore the show and see some great displays, see some future opportunities for the Studios and looked for ways to update our products and services on offer.

Our main objective was to meet people, let them know about our Studio day giveaway prize (see previous blog here for info the January winner and her plans for her prize) and develop plans over this year.

Our neighbours and friends at the show Trickbox TV , a mobile production unit, offers flexible production packages that suit most event  coverage needs, BBC approved HD cameras and everything else you’ll need in one portable flight case and can be combined very effectively with one of studio bookings.

Trickbox TV Ltd have designed and built a bespoke gallery and studio in a box. It’s a cleverly engineered SD and HD file-based portable production unit (PPU) packaged in two small and compact flight cases, designed to be ‘live in seconds’, capable of any broadcast or corporate shoot, AGM, webcast, music event or festival. You provide the space, we’ll provide everything else.

We also had the chance to speak to a few directory companies at the show. The below company is mainly focussed on working with and supporting, British directors.

Directors UK and Camberwell Studios are in talks about some possible collaborations with some of their members initially offering their members a discount scheme for Indy projects. Just in the ideas phase at the moment but please stay in touch for more info.

Directors UK, formerly DPRS, was launched inJune 2008 as the single voice of British film and television directors. It is now both a collecting society and campaigning body with over 4,000 members.

Camberwell Studios offer a flexible space for indy producers and directors to let them get creative without lots of red-tape and paperwork. We can cope with last minute changes to plans with full logistics support, earlier ‘get-ins' if needed, late kit delivery and collection, prep time, set-build planning support and crew requirements. 

Please see our FAQs here for other useful info when pencilling one of our Green-screen, blackout or whitewashed spaces.

In addition to our 2 studios we offer natural skylight lit space (below), great for photo shoots and music videos. This gritty, urban environment has power access and is typically booked with Studio 1.

From a world War 2 Bunker to a music video setting the space is definitely worth a look. Also worth seeing (as long as your OK with working at heights!) is our roof space. 'The Rise Of Cain' production shows our roof space as a whole and combined with a huge set build in Studio 1 tured out to be a very good example of our variation of work.

 This particular production wheeled in a huge crane, which parked in our car park (see below pic of the drive in access and parking we offer) and was rigged with lights and suspended to eliminate the flat roof we have. Lots of bumps, textures, flat and curved sections all with safe walled barriers for safety make the roof space a fantastic addition to the studio and its options available.

This week we welcome Goldie the Drum and Bass DJ who is making a music video due out on the 12^th March. Details are still hush hush but check out our tweets for info as it comes up. Our Director Andy's Mother spoke to him of the morning of the Goldie shoot and in passing enquired if we 'had anyone famous in the studios this week'? Andy replied 'Not anyone you will have heard of Mum' (bearing in mind she is quite old and not an avid drum and bass fan - although I could be wrong) Just to prove it to Andys Mum, here is the picture below.

Also in today are Basement Jaxx. (see below pic) Very nice people they are too. They are in a trying their talented hands at their own music video production. Our Music Production arm of Camberwell Studios, EPiK, have been briefly chatting about flexible, last minute bookings  which could bring life to album tracks that may never have had a music video. Backstage EPK’s and other promotional material can be made within very reasonable budgets with quick turnarounds. Felix from the band attempted his own stunt! He asked his vocalist to jump on our green boxes only to nearly do a summersault and land face down. DJ, Music Video producer and avid and amateur stuntman. Is there any end to their talents?

Many thanks to all at the BE, production show visitors and all who entered our Feburary prize draw.
