Montage
These clips are from a series of idents for Turner Broadcasting (UK). The work involves art directing the sets, making props, practical models and some basic special effects based on ideas generated by the often bizarre creative juices of John Redfern and Doug Murchie at Turner. There is plenty of humour involved and I have a suspicion that they enjoy doing this.
Incredikids 1: Studio build. Set was later deemed too realistic (i.e. messy) so we simplified subsequent ones.
Incredikids 2: Shot on location in sunny Dorking and in studio. We created a Cornelia Parker style hanging veg tunnel with ninja gnomes.
Incredikids 3: Location shoot on the Hampshire coast. We were treated to some huge summer rain storms complete with wind and lightning.
Incredikids 4: Coming soon, still in edit, the funniest yet.

The talented, efficient and busy Tony May is DoP on all the jobs here.
