This project was set by my uncle, he needed a track for a book that he made about the place he lives, Didcot.
He wanted a track that was nice to listen to but he did not want it to steal all the limelight. This was going to be tricky.
I decided to create a short piece that did not change too much, I tried to keep it all at one pace.
I also had to do the whole track in one go, this took a lot of breath but i am pleased with the outcome and so is he.
When recording I also made sure that I could see the video, I wanted to get the notes and pitch to change every time the page was turned. It worked a bit but the pages were sticky when it was filmed so the page turning was not all at the same pace.
The video was uploaded to his Website for anyone to view, this could result in me getting some work in the future.
I made a video on after effects with my face in it just for PPP But the main video is just of the book.
In conclusion I am very pleased with the outcome and would love to work with him again on a similar project.
I asked my uncle for more information about the book, he emailed me back this
The video we made uses a technique pioneered by ‘Have a Nice Book’ (http://haveanicebook.com). It is a way of presenting photo books via the internet; showing their scale and textural qualities in a better way than a PDF proof can. It was made because I was approached by a company called Hero Media. They are a film production company who now represent me as a content and commercials director. The video of the book is included to show that my skills as a storyteller span multiple mediums - from stills, to video to books.
