The second part of the Extreme Earth series we produced in partnership with Stuff magazine is now live. Shot in Nevada and Arizona, this 90 second video was commissioned by Philips to show off their Ambilight televisions. We shot this film in 4K HDR using Sony’s Vegas cinema camera and DOP legend Alister Chapman. We
On a crisp December day last year I found myself trying to keep warm in the middle of an airfield in Bicester, waiting for a specially designed mechanical man to walk in front of a car.

If you want really positive and imaginative solutions to the whole spectrum of video problems then this is the company for you. I’ve worked with Leigh at POV many times now and always found him to be a highly professional and creative operator and a darn nice chap too.
