Last May, Vera Bradley (via Britton Marketing and Design Group), needed to coordinate several days worth of shooting using historic railroad equipment. Any type of creative endeavor on a live railroad with vintage equipment can pose logistical and safety challenges to the client and the railroads alike, but we belong in those niches.
We arranged for use of three historic railroad passenger cars and their setting for the company’s video and still work, supervising and arranging the cleaning, switching, and placement of the cars, provided some 4K HD ready equipment when an airline misplaced important camera components, and company man Andrew Gorrell doubled as gaffer and grip.
The results are right up our alley. Thanks to Vera, Britton, and others for capitalizing on Fort Wayne’s iconography and for bringing us on board.
