Angus Watt — The Flags — Video

Angus Watt is a highly regarded inter­na­tional artist who cre­ates install­a­tions in the land­scape with large scale, bespoke flags. He com­mis­sioned us to make a web video to illus­trate his unique art form. The video appears in the slide deck on his new web­site, which we have also designed and developed. PlanXdesign set up and recor­ded an inter­view with him and used his voice as a voice over to describe his life work as an artist. Dur­ing the voice over, videos of his flags show the many and vari­ous world class events and fest­ivals, he has been suc­cess­fully embel­lish­ing over the years. Angus provided us with his video back cata­logue of his doc­u­mented install­a­tions, which we then logged and integ­rated along­side recent shots taken by us. The film was story boarded to tell a simple story of how Angus works, from home, to his stu­dio and out in the field, as it were. The music is provided by Angus’ friend, musical com­poser Andy White.

PaSEaR

Char­ley Case is an inter­na­tion­ally renowned artist of many dis­cip­lines. He is most fam­ous for his little fig­ures, which are painted dir­ectly onto walls and go to make up the lar­ger image of a tree. He is nomadic by nature and totally eco friendly, which meant we edited this entire film on solar. Edit­ing could only take place whilst the sun was hit­ting the solar pan­els. Char­ley cap­tures a subtle and hon­est beauty with his stills and video cam­eras. Char­ley likes to col­lab­or­ate with other artist and mix skills and so that is how became his edit­ors, ori­gin­ally for one piece then over time, eight­een video pieces were cre­ated. This piece is a sepia mont­age of Charley’s best work. We anim­ated pho­tos and draw­ings, layered foot­age and basic­ally worked very closely with Charley’s ideas to cre­ate a very spe­cial film. The film was com­mis­sioned by the City of Valen­cia to go in a glossy bro­chure which accom­pan­ied his exhib­i­tion at Sala Parpallo. The film is shown as part of an install­a­tion, pro­jec­ted from the ceil­ing into a large con­cave half sphere and rotates slowly around as you watch it from above. This gives the film an even more magical feel. An Art film by Char­ley Case, edited by Emma Plunkett.

A Brief Introduction to Social Intelligence by Sada Nam Kaur — Video

One of nine demon­stra­tion videos about social intel­li­gence by Kunda­lini yoga teacher and life coach Sada Nam Kaur, shot and edited by planXdesign. The videos are presen­ted on a DVD as part of a work book, which also comes from our stu­dio. We set up a stu­dio shoot cre­at­ing back­grounds in post pro­duc­tion to match the cli­ents brand col­ours. We used an autocue to prompt. We designed the sub­titles, title pages, menus and DVD cover to all cor­res­pond with the work book’s look.
