Filming in an old English Mansion

Earlier this week I had the priveledge of shooting video for a corporate client around this beautiful house in Canterbury, Kent.

The surroundings of this house were picture postcard, and it took about a 1 minute to travel up the drive way through the estate.

I get to shoot in some incredible places with my job. And this job itself was brilliant fun too, working with English football pundit Jeff Stelling. A lovely chap who I've been lucky enough to film with on numerous occasions.

The entrance hall of this house led to multiple rooms and corridors, each steeped in tapestrys and beautiful original oil paintings in magnificent 'golden' frames.

Even the toilet was fascinating.
This one was actually the first photo I took on the day.

We had a few filming setups throughout the house; this one was in front of a glorious fireplace and I lit out subject with a frontal honeycomb spot for the Godfather kind of feeling. The surrounding looked just the part.

I was filming on my C100mkii via the Blackmagic monitor with 16-35mm and Rode wireless mic (with backup Sennheiser boom)

I love my job.
