Stay Low // Bridge The Dark // Live at London Road Studios

Does it always have to be weddings? I think it keeps us fresh to mix it up a bit.

I captured this live recording of Bridge the Dark at London Road Studios. Having previously worked in the camera team on many music videos for artists such as Bullet for my Valentine, Ellie Goulding, The Vaccines and Wretch 32, where I was one of three crew per camera, (sound and lighting also being separate departments), it wasn't as large a leap as you may think to manage 4 cameras, 6 lights and 6 microphones, 1 clapper board on my own. Seeing as I was the editor as well, I avoided my 'run and gun' methods and made sure to work as if I were handing the footage over to the post (production) house, boarded shots, notes and all.

I can't say being film industry trained hasn't helped every single day of this Wagtail adventure and that is something I always draw on to make sure weddings go smoothly.
