Production: Christine Fisler Ballet

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.

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: A Battle to the Death - sword fight

Shooting a scene in Tyler State Park in Newtown, PA, Jarrod Weida and Josh Gieringer clashed steel for hours as the RED Oner camera flew around on the EZFX 16' Jib with remote pan/tilt head. A great crew handled the shoot to go as smoothly as possible with two tech for the battle's finale with all the fake blood that was needed. Jarrod was getting over being sick and the day definitely took its physical toll on the fighters but everyone left with smiles on their faces and we wrapped only 30 minutes past the scheduled wrap time. Not bad!

Production: Semi-Pro Skateboarder shoot

Tom Martyn set up the shoot with semi-pro skateboarder, Mikey Leven at the FDR Skate Park in Philadelphia, PA. After a brief warm up, Leven shredded the skate park and we blasted out a quick, guerilla style video - shot on the RED One at 2K resolution at 120fps. Recently, Leven's wins at East Coast skating tournaments have caught the eye of Vans - keep an eye out for him... he's definitely on the way up!

Production: The Playing Mantis Fire Dancers

A few of the Stamphill team met up with "Mantis" and "Snap Dragon" of the Playing Mantis fire performer team to create their promotional video entitled "Ruins". Set at a construction site where some buildings were in the process of being demolished, we found the location to have a perfect look of grit for the video's aesthetic. Tim and MB of the Playing Mantis donned several outfits during the day to complement the terrain and set out to burn a great video. The day's overcast weather was perfect to give a dreary look to the video while still allowing enough light to balance exposure for the performers and obtain tremendous detail in the flame.

The video was shot on the RED One camera at 2K resolution shooting 120 fps for incredible slow motion.
