Listingslab Productions
Listingslab's Photography revolves around our flickr account. We've been using flickr for years, uploading over 3500 images in that time.
Although we are not professional photographers, we have been known to organise the odd photoshoot.
We have also been working with ski company All Mountain Performance over the past few winters and have produced a decent sized collection of images for use on the website and other marketing areas.
Professional photography rates start at 200EUR per day plus travel and expenses for Photo Shoots and EUR150 per day for processing, hosting and other services after the photos are taken
Need some time lapse photography?
Time lapse photography is quite difficult to do. It's exactly like
taking a photograph and having to wait 6 hours for the shutter to go
click. Obviously a tripod is used. And a video camera which takes high definition resolution
pictures at a fixed interval. And you need to be near a plug socket
because the camera's battery will die after a few hours. So once you've
set everything up and you think the camera is pointed in the right
direction, you can forget about it for a while. But you'll wish you
adjusted the focus,white balance or just framed the damn shot better
for that entire 6 hours.
When you've finished the photography
bit & turned the camera off, you simply compile the photos together
Video usually uses a frame rate of 25 frames per second. But it doesn't
have to. 15 fps is quite fast enough and saves bandwidth. So I've got
508 images taken 1 second apart. At 15 frames per second I get about
half a minute of time lapsed shot. I could batch edit those images in photoShop to tweak colours and cropping etc, but 500 high res images take a while to crunch. So I open up an Image Sequence in Quicktime Pro (which it's well worth paying for), and then simply export the movie with the compression I want for the web. Done.
Here is some of our work from summer 2008
This sequence of photographs was shot with a normal digital camera in multiple frame capture mode. The sequence of photos were then transferred to PhotoShop for colour control and addition of sponsorship branding. The images were then adjusted to the resolution of High Definition television in order to make them useful in the film making process.
