Production: Body Painting Artistry

This promotional video featuring the body painting artistry of Jennifer Montgomery modeled by Arielle Johnson and Leanna was arranged shortly after meeting the group of artists at a Philadelphia artist showcase. Utilizing the visual texture of the Harmonic Distortion studio space, stunning imagery was captured for the better part of a day - all at 3K resolution at 60fps. Every single member of the cast and crew performed with precision.

Check out some of the still images below taken by Dave Kappler:

A promotional ballet dance video was crafted with Philadelphia's University of the Arts dance instructor, Christine Fisler. With a small bit of set design, cool camera moves, and a lot of light - a great video was created. The video mixes slow motion footage with 4k footage.

Local actress and model, JaQuinley Kerr is also a designer and make up artist. We created an art video with her set at an amazingly unique and artistic studio in New Hope, PA. Surrounded by custom woodwork, stained glass, and metal working, JaQuinley showed off her self-made outfit and make up.

Production - Drop Anchor Music Video pt 3

The Drop Anchor music video "Always Tempting Fate" finished up with a few more days of shooting with actor Tony Slade supported by actors Paul Monte, Jennifer Snyder, and about 20 wonderful extras. Shooting locations included an office building in King of Prussia, PA, two different home locations in Lansdale, PA, shooting on a SEPTA train, and running around some empty streets of a quiet Philadelphia suburb.

Funny (and sad) story: You see the glass doors behind actor, Tony Slade in the top photo... We had him panicked and running out of the building towards the camera. The door was initially propped open with a rock but it was visible so we shut the door to have him run through. The downside is that the building is a "secured building" and even exiting the building, the door needs to be pushed at a certain speed. Tony's velocity was to fast and when he went to blast through the door, it didn't budge an inch and Tony suffered a resulting bruise for several weeks after. He healed and is okay but it was really something. In the end, we found something very small to prop the door open with and Tony finished out the day with a wounded shoulder. He's a total pro.

Production: Calle Luna Dance Studio

On this late night shoot, the Calle Luna Dance Studio performed one of the most intense two minutes of salsa dancing anyone could possibly imagine. The catch is, they had to do this over and over when it was shot from various angles and focal lengths. Staying hydrated with water and Gatorade, they made it through the night with about 30 takes in the can.

Production: Drop Anchor Music Video - pt. 2

The first day of shooting for the narrative portion of the Drop Anchor music video, "Always Tempting Fate" was possibly the coldest day of the year. Although we were shooting indoors, it might as well have been outside. It was about 10 degrees inside and in turn damaged the hard drive of our data transfer laptop. Luckily, AC Jake Czepiel had his laptop with him and the day was able to continue on. Power was sparse for lighting the scene but we got it all worked out in the end. Actors Tony Slade and Chris Dalbey toughed it out through the temperature and finished their scenes without complaint. Working with professionals is awesome. Everyone did a great job.

Production: Welcome Home, Charlie Valentine

Stamphill Motion Pictures produced the mini-short film, "Welcome Home, Charlie Valentine" - written by Jason Lauer and starring Bruce Clifford, Frank Thon and Sarah Dewey. We shot it in the quiet town of Perkasie, PA with some great locations that fit the crime story perfectly. Minor mishaps included unwanted piles of snow in one of our shooting spots, a moving violation ticket, and a church bell that rang every fifteen minutes. All in all, everything worked out very well.
