Ukitopia Festival 2010!!

Words can’t describe how great our festival was and what a great time everyone had - so I hope our photos can! If you’d like to have a quick overview, we also have a slideshow in the video page, set to a great track by Deya Dova. It was hard to choose our favourite photos this time, but here are a few. Heaps more can be seen (and ordered) at our Client Galleries.














Wild Honey!

We took part in the Wild Honey Dance Festival - this time as videographers for the public performance night held at Ocean Shores last Saturday.
With Alan using the wide-angle lens on the 5D to record the video, I had the longer lens (70 to 200mm for those who care about such things), I was constrained to either capturing close-ups of the dancers or to moving back and shooting over the audience (and missing out on the twirling skirts and legs anyway). So I went with the flow and aimed to capture the colour, the movement and the expressions of the dancers. It was a great night with a huge variety of styles that really showcased what it seemed to me that Wild Honey is all about - women moving their bodies in such an expressive and sensual dance style, which is at the same time wild and free and incredibly disciplined.
