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:

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.

Production: East Falls Glassworks

Glass blowing is fascinating - plain and simple. If you see it done well, it looks amazingly easy. We captured master glass blowing artisan, Jon Goldberg, creating a tectonic ordinate vase in his Philadelphia, PA studio - East Falls Glassworks. Over the course of 90 minutes, Goldberg - assisted by Nikolaj Christensen - created a $1600 work of art which we boiled down to its essence with a runtime of five minutes so you can see the majority of the vast amount of work that goes into creating the glass art.

Cast: Jon Goldberg, Nikolaj Christensen
Crew: Mitch Martinez (DP), Jeff Vernitsky (AC)
