Animazoo – motion capture suit & sensors shoot
0Animazoo
Another new client this week in the guise of Animazoo, a Hove-based company which designs, manufactures and sells motion capture suits and sensors from their base down by the sea. Motion capture is used by animators, filmmakers, television companies, the games industry as well as those studying or researching ergonomics and biomechanics and the new and exciting area of augmented reality. Gyros at key points on the body allow software to capture the movement of that point through 3D space, and this movement track can then be applied to wireframes, animated characters, or just analysed to extract useful data about the way bodies move. Together with our lovely model Fiona Jane, Animazoo spent a very productive day with us shooting their product range for their web site & marketing materials, and were delighted with the space, facilities and helpful staff. They reckon they’ll come back, and they’ll be very welcome when they do. See Animazoo’s motion capture suits & sensors.
Plants4Presents again
0The lovely Emily from plants4presents.co.uk has been with us again, hiring our photography studio to shoot their range of wonderful botanical gifts. We specialise in helping small businesses like plants4presents.co.uk get their photography done to a high standard at minimum cost. You do your own photography, but in a professional photography studio with professional equipment set up by experts.
Candy Anthony’s 2nd visit
0Our lovely client Candy Anthony was so impressed with the results of their first visit, they’ve been with us again this week shooting another range of their wonderful 50s/60s inspired bridal dresses – this time with makeup services provided by Sylvi du Sauzay. When you book Southdown Studio to do your own product photography, we set everything up for you so you’re assured of the very best photos. You don’t have to be a professional photographer – when the environment, equipment and setup is to a professional standard, all you have to do is set up your products and shoot away. Superb quality product photos for a fraction of the price of any commercial photographer. Just what you need in the current economic climate.
Plants4Presents
0We had a new customer this week – Emily from plants4presents.co.uk who wanted a higher quality result from DIY product photography. Plants4Presents is a specialist nursery providing over 50 different fruiting or flowering plants as seasonal gifts, and being based online makes the quality of their photography especially important. Commercial photographers can be really expensive, so hiring a professional photography studio and doing it yourself is a great way to bring the costs down. We often help small businesses like plants4presents.co.uk to photograph their products to a high standard at minimum cost. It’s DIY photography, but in a proper studio with professional equipment set up by experts.
Candy Anthony
0This week we welcomed another new client – Candy Anthony, designer of beautiful 50s/60s inspired vintage dresses for bridal or occasional wear. The team does all their own photography and needed a good reliable professional photography studio to provide them with plenty of space, excellent facilities, and to make sure they get their lighting just right. That’s Southdown Studio’s speciality – enabling small businesses to do their own high quality professional-standard photography at a minimum cost. We like to do everything to ensure that you go away with the perfect set of photos. Candy Anthony clearly agreed… they’ve booked another visit already!

New studio storage
0We’ve decluttered and made our working space neater and tidier thanks to our new studio storage which sits looking smart and plush at the back of the main space. We’re very proud, and it makes for a better working environment for all our hirers.
