Sky Sports

One Day, One Camera: 74 Shots

Well that was the loose plan anyway. We ended up shooting over 50 setups in one day, which must be some kind of record for a commercial. The commercial is the sponsorship for Golf on Sky this coming season, sponsored by Skandia: - so Sky gets their promo and Skandia get their commercial and they share the costs...

The commercial consists of a 30sec commercial and about 15 vignettes that can bookend the commercials when the Golf goes to commercial break.

Our cast were both pro golfers, so no amazing acting, but all that was required was professional looking golf acting, so it worked very well.

And guess what we used the Optex Probe Module again - there's definitely a trend starting - this is definitely the way to shoot macro shots!

The location was the Ceres Golf Course - only 9 holes, but they let us have the run of the course and access to all their golf carts so we were really able to work fast and move around fast without having to wait for people to play though or deal with annoyed golfers, definitely the way to go. I will be recommending this location in the future!
