It was back to the studio this week for the filming of two new video about the Jo Bird and company roller shutter and fire hose cabinets. The problem with having such an extensive range of customizable cabinets, is explaining what is possible and why you should use them. The filming and photography took place at Factory studios in Bristol and was run by Rowan Pearce from the Bristol Video company who did an excellent job as always. The SOS300 fire hose cabinet was the greatest challenge as it is multi-faceted and has a high gloss finish. This makes it very challenging to photograph while avoiding unwanted reflections.

Featuring Elena demonstrating the products, not only adds colour and movement to the videos but also gives a sense of scale as there are so many options which can look much the same on a web page. Our thanks to Elena, Denis, Marcus and Rowan for a very successful couple of days. Also, to Gibb safety for loaning us the clothing and gear for Elena as well as Viking life-saving for the safety equipment. The videos will be ready this summer.
