GK has been keeping busy with an amalgamation of opportunities as of late, what with old friends and new friends alike looking to get us out and about. Last week witnessed another collaborative effort with the folks over at Versus, as we took to the field (or, the rink as it were) with the RED package in tow for a production day at the Flyer’s Skate Zone in Voorhees. A quick word to the wise…if you ever find yourself forced to shoot on a literal ‘sheet of ice’, be sure to have the proper footwear. And never underestimate the value of helmet!
GK found itself pairing recently with the production duo of Old Harbor Productions and Digitas, for a one-day multicam shoot on the Canon 5D. The project, lensed by GK’s in-house DP Kevin Hack, is part of a series of owner testimonials for automaker Buick and will be continuing to film nationwide over the next few weeks. A viral launch is currently scheduled for sometime in 2011.
The Get-Kinetic team is also happy to welcome Green, Tweed to its growing list of clients. GK has been collaborating with local Cinematographer JR Campbell on an industrial project for the locally based Green, Tweed (who call Kulpsville, PA home to one of their largest worldwide headquarters). The project, consisting of several interview and b-roll production days with the RED One camera package, was field produced by GK staffer Paul Irwin. JR set up behind the lens in the DP role, and Dan Gauthier will be handling all editorial and VFX work on the project’s behalf. The promo piece is currently being posted in-house at GK, with a project completion set for mid-November.
