Virtuous Bread

My friend Pete Thompson of Shedlight Productions has taken home a much coveted Royal Television Society award for best non-broadcast film showcasing the company Virtuous Bread.
Virtuous Bread is owned and run by the lovely Jane Mason who teaches people to make bread and uses this to bring people and communities closer together.

Working as part of the team I shot the stop motion cutaways of the writing, time lapse of the bread rising  and the second unit close up details in and around the kitchen. The film was shot on a Canon 7d and lit with various light sources including a Kino Flo Diva Light. When you are working in a great location with someone who is clearly comfortable in front of a camera and passionate about what they do everything seems to fall into place.
The team who worked on the film include Pete Thompson (Director/Camera), Kevin Harper (Sound),
Paul Hodgkinson (Concept/Producer) and myself.


We hope you enjoy the film and be sure to check out both the Virtuous Bread site and the Shedlight Productions site. 

And here's the film, 

Enjoy

Lord Lav

My friend Lav freestyle rapping on set. Lav came up to appear as a background zombie twice, the first time as part of the zombie horde and the second time to appear in one of the final shots of the film.
Check out his website for loads of great lessons on how to rap and how to create a song from start to finish.

My mediocre beat boxing can be heard in the background during the second part.

Enjoy
