Shoot – Marlo: Altitude

dsc0682113 August 2016

Another shoot for the Joker Theory. Or rather, my idea of a nightmare… A big indoor techno party, very loud, full of smokers (even though it is forbidden to smoke inside…), and I won’t say a word of the crowd…

I am to be center camera. The least interesting in a way, it never moves, wide angle of the room and the stage, and needs to never stop recording… But it is also the easiest, and on a show like that, I am quite happy to be seating there and waiting for it to finish. To pass the time, I took my camera along and got those shots… Not bad I reckon…

Here is the full Gallery

Un autre tournage pour le Joker Theory. Ou plutôt, mon idée d’un cauchemar… Une grande partie techno, très bruyante, plein de fumeurs (alors qu’il est interdit de fumer à l’intérieur), et je ne dirai rien de la foule…
Je suis chargé d’une caméra qui doit couvrir l’évènement du début à la fin, sans bouger, plan fixe et large. Cette caméra ne doit jamais s’arrêter. C’est pas bien excitant, mais en même temps, dans un concert comme ça, je suis bien content d’avoir ma chaise, mon coin “tranquille”, et de juste devoir attendre que ça se termine ! Du coup, pour passer le temps j’ai apporté mon appareil photo, et j’ai pris quelques photos… Pas trop mal en fait…

Sydney Uni Concert

25 February 2016

Tonight, my friend Damon has asked me to come give him a hand as a second shooter to cover a Sydney Uni Concert. Three bands, “Letter to Lions”, “Olympia” and “San Cisco” are playing, the crowd is young, and the atmosphere pretty nice.

I must say it is a rather nice gig, thanks Damon!

Ce soir, mon ami Damon m’a demandé de venir lui donner un coup de main en temps que deuxième photographe pour un concert à l’université de Sydney. Trois groupes se succèdent : “Letter to Lions”, “Olympia” et “San Cisco”. Le public est jeune, l’atmosphère est sympa.

Je dois dire que c’est une petit boulot bien sympathique!, Merci Damon!

Party In The Park

DSC03579

14 March 2015

The first Party In The Park festival, with very good bands. A nice arvo spent on bean bags, relaxing and surrounded by happy party goers.

I had brought my Sony A7S to try it in a concert situation, but my battery was nearly dead (6%). It didn’t stop me, and I managed to get some shots, to try this camera in those situation. The pictures were taken with my Canon 70-200mm with the Metabone Adapter, and I was not disappointed in the slightest. While I had to focus manually, as those circumstances were a bit adverse and pushing the auto focus out of its comfort zone, I think the amazing low light capabilities of the camera allowed me to capture very good moments. Shot at 4000 ISO and about 1/1000s, I am quite happy with my test:)

And then, my camera died, and I was left to enjoy the moment, dancing with a happy crowd to the beat of the drums.

Great night! Great show!

The two bands I took pictures of were The Jezabels, and The Cat Empire.
