This was shot in two parts; Southpaw came to us for a new brand film, however the master interview was shot the day before the first CV-19 lockdown in the UK.
This meant that all of the actuality (or b-roll) around the office, had to wait. When we were finally able to film, we were met with enormous complications and restrictions during the coronavirus pandemic; how close office staff could be, whether we could even shoot multiple people in the same room and for how long.
Despite all of the Covid-19 restrictions, we shot safely and delivered to a very happy client, with a 20-minute hero film, which was then edited into multiple social media cut-downs by their in-house team.
Overall, a pleasure to work with Southpaw and we’re so happy to see it live!
