Splitting, set building and breaking at the studio.
March 30, 2009
Occasionally in house photographer DarkDaze suggests an idea that lends itself quite neatly to ideas about the creation, depiction and deconstruction of spaces.
The last mammoth shoot at the studio saw the crew and studio community grow to an indomitable force. DD having been commissioned to produce a new image and with a clear direction to push it in, referenced specific lighting from the world of the painted image and films. Compositionally the style was strongly influenced by a favourite of mine (M.Halls); architecture and the perception of space.
Working from sketches and film stills, and further sketches and rough layouts, we were able to start the construction of the largest set yet in Garage Studios.
To see how we constructed 2 rooms, a dividing wall and all the other components that make this image bigger than most, watch the video below. As you can see after a few hours of running around with nail guns, skill saws and the odd hammer, we were joined on set by a keen and dedicated team including, Avangelist, Nicholas Blake, Ben Petrucci, Emma of Ophelia Fancy and Natasha of lighting fame.

It’s a bit too fast to see Stevie and Em’s rather splendid little stop motion live-animation which was tres amusing.
But naturally it was all work work work.
Oh my god! amazing how much work you put into your images! also looks like a lot of people in a smallish space! Brilliant to see behind the scenes of what happens on a set build shoot….
Really interesting watch….thankyou!
