I rediscovered Planet of the Apes the other day (thanks to a £3 offer at HMV) and was thrown out of my chair by the cinematography in the opening scenes. You really could take any frame and, well, frame it.
The Director of Photography, Leon Shamroy, also shot Cleopatra, The King and I, Cheaper by the Dozen (the 1950 version, folks…) along with such memorable epics as “Snow White and the Three Stooges”.
Top chap.
The Astoria, London’s legendary venue, closed its doors for the last time on the 14th of January this year. We are making a documentary on this piece of British music history and were there to film the entire last night in glorious high definition. With the venue making way for the Tottenham Court Road Crossrail station, we’re getting in front of as many of the bands that played there as possible.
We would love to hear all your stories from the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s.
Let’s kick this off with:
Their May 1994 gig is remembered as one of Radiohead’s seminal coming of age moments prior to The Bends. Indeed the ‘My Iron Lung’ recording at the Astoria was never bettered, and with the addition of Thom Yorke’s vocals dubbed in, was used on the album.
Tetley commissioned a video for use by their salespeople in Russia and the CIS area. Our editors, animators and compositors used existing stock footage and TV commercials to produce a rather marvellous little piece of video.
We are extremely proud to have devised a new brand identity for a property development that will help redefine one of the most recognisable skylines in the world.
The new identity for St James Quarter, Edinburgh, a retail site acquired by Henderson Global Investors, set for redevelopment until 2014, was evolved over several weeks by the Zebra Crossing team, lead by Luke Hammersley and including work by designers Rory Seaford and Chris Trotman.
The identity has been rolled into a variety of literature for use with planning applications, consultation processes, press activity and corporate stationary alongside a new content managed website (using Drupal) designed and built by the Zebra Crossing Digital team. See: www.stjamesquarter.info.
Zebra Crossing were appointed by Henderson’s PR & communications agency Halogen.
