Bringing the Outside In – Celebrating Local Creativity at Kalamunda Central

Friday, June 14th, 2019

There’s something truly special about seeing a child’s artwork displayed on a wall—especially when that wall happens to be at the entrance of a busy shopping centre.

Kalamunda Central recently celebrated the creativity of 30 local kids, whose artwork now brings colour, joy and imagination to the Central Mall entry. The theme was “Bringing the Outside In”, and each child brought their own unique take—drawing inspiration from nature, the local environment, and their own vivid imaginations.

To mark the occasion, families gathered to see the artworks unveiled in large format, proudly displayed for the community to enjoy. I was there to capture the smiles, excitement, and sense of pride as the young artists spotted their pieces hanging on the walls.

It was a wonderful reminder of how powerful creativity can be, especially when it’s encouraged and celebrated on such a public stage.

A huge congratulations to all the young artists involved—and to Kalamunda Central for turning its walls into a canvas for community connection.

Looking for a professional photographer in Perth? Whether it’s community events, promotional / corporate, or creative campaigns like this one at Kalamunda Central, I love capturing moments that matter.

An Inspiring Strong Woman

Thursday, June 6th, 2019

I love being inspired by strong women. Take a look at the amazing Tash Sergi from Australian Ninja Warrior!

I was lucky enough to be hired by Compass Group Australia to take some stretching photography of her for some posters they are producing.

I couldn’t stop staring at her arms! They are magnificent!

Tash is a health and fitness coach, has 2 children, is a past entrant in Ninja Warrior Australia and is incredibly strong, you go girl!

This is someone that all of our daughters should look up to. Someone who is strong, successful and capable.

Mandurah’s Crab Festival – Promotional Video Production

Thursday, May 30th, 2019

Ever been to a crab festival? Mandurah WA holds one every year across 3 days, called Crab Fest.

Fresh Oysters!
Live music in the beer garden

It includes music, food, fireworks and carnival rides. It is just great day out for the whole family.
We were hired by the City of Mandurah to produce a 60 second video of the massive event.

Craig filming the crowd’s reaction to Montaigne

It was a full on day for Craig and myself, working for 12 hours on our feet with a quick 15 minute lunch break thrown in the middle between events! Lots of fun though and we were thrilled to be part of it. Especially being able to see the amazing Montaigne perform.

South West Australian Arts Festival

Wednesday, December 19th, 2018

Every year The City of Mandurah holds a Stretch Arts Festival which showcases art and music in a free event. We were hired to create a highlight video of the weekend of activities. Craig and I enjoy videoing these types of events as you are able to capture people naturally having fun without being aware of the camera.

Throughout the two day festival, participants experience and enjoy performance, dance, music, visual arts, theatre and outdoor activities with events being delivered by renown and upcoming local, Australian and international companies and artists. Check out the video we made showing the highlights of the weekend. Definitely worth a visit if you can make it in 2019.

Best drone of 2018 – Homemade “Cooler Drone”

Wednesday, December 12th, 2018

So Craig is up to his inventions again! This time it is a DIY Drone Cooler, a flying Esky!

 

This is a tongue in cheek video so unfortunately it cannot carry a whole carton of beer and there isn’t really a cooler drone app, but the rest is actually real and it really does fly (I have flown it myself!).

This video has been 6 months in the making. The filming was an huge undertaking shot entirely with just 2 crew (apart from some “Extras” for scenes) – and often only 1 person. We shot it completely out of sight from the public- to keep it under wraps until we could complete the whole video. This meant some tricky locations had to be used. The drone build took about 4 weeks alone, literally Craig’s whole summer break – and then some. We aren’t sure if this is an invention, an artwork or a short film. I guess it is kind of all three? Yes Craig really did throw the bottle(s) at me but I’m kind of used to him doing that now, I feel like it is part of the filming process! Make sure you check out the blooper reel, pretty funny stuff!

 

 It was built using DJI parts, mostly the DJI Phantom 3. More information and build pictures on Craig’s blog

and you can also watch the build video here.

 

So we were lucky enough that this short film was a finalist for Australia’s Funniest Shorts for 2017. It was awesome to hear live reactions from the public.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is a vlog of our adventures attending the live judging in Bunbury.

 

Autism Awareness Day – April 2nd

Wednesday, December 5th, 2018

Of all the work we do and all the videos that we make, this is the most important to Craig and myself.
Our son Nate was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder when he was 3 years old. He attends a mainstream school with the help of a special needs aide.
The school holds an Awareness Day every year to teach children about the disability and difference.

Through education comes understanding and through understanding comes acceptance.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all school’s embraced this?

Goliath Fitness Is Not Your Average Gym

Wednesday, November 21st, 2018

Testimonial driven videos are such a great way to get your message across without the hard sell. Explain what you do through your interview, then let the client sing your praises in their own words. Remember people connect with people rather than a faceless voice over. Be honest and real and the audience will connect.

 

Goliath was a great business to work with as they trusted us completely. We suggested they put forth a main promotional video and then 2 or 3 subsequent videos that explained certain parts of their gym that they wanted to promote. This way they ended up with a short, sharp entertaining promotional video that didn’t drag on for 20 minutes explaining everything that didn’t appeal to the general audience. They loved the idea, so we ended up with a main promo video, a mums and bubs targeted video, a video about training and physio and lastly a video targeted around their GoFit Hiit program.

Keto Pumps – Photography for Website and Marketing

We recently completed a photography job for Keto Pumps, capturing a range of images for use on their website and marketing materials.

The shoot included staff in action, product shots, and behind-the-scenes moments at their facility. The goal was to showcase the people, precision, and products that power their business—and we’re proud to see the final images now live on their website.

Wake up your audience by livening up your training videos!

Monday, May 18th, 2015

Training videos can traditionally be tedious and boring with a monotone voice over that will put you to sleep within minutes. A great way to liven things up is to replace this outdated video style with a role play. It is the same message but delivered with professional actors in a scripted scene. It is an easier format for viewers to retain information and they can see what they are being taught in relevant examples.

In these two video one scenario is played out in two different ways so the viewer can see the difference between doing something the correct way and the incorrect way and how a customer reacts because of this.

The Tourism Council of WA hired us to create these videos in order to train customer service personnel in the tourism industry. “The benefits to the trainers using the videos has been professionalism and the ability to use realistic examples, especially for the visual learners. Feedback from the trainees has been positive” – Julia from the Tourism Council of WA
