Blink Scavenger Hunt
Running around London with lots of camera gear
Hunting around london
We were commissioned by Blink Payments to shoot their company away day. They were going to be running a scavenger hunt in London and wanted it shot with both photography and videography. It was an action-packed day of creativity and strategy.
The twist in the plan was that our photographer and videographer had to be split up and assigned to separate teams within the hunt, meaning we needed to coordinate shots remotely while still capturing each team's unique experience. It was a challenge to anticipate what gear would be essential for capturing dynamic footage across various locations, as we couldn’t afford the luxury of carrying too much equipment through the city. This required a lot of careful pre-planning, selecting versatile lenses and lightweight stabilisers that could cover our needs without weighing us down.
A fast paced day
The weather was a make-or-break factor, and thankfully, we lucked out with a bright, clear day that enhanced the look of our shots. London’s iconic buses and bustling streets added a layer of excitement, as both teams sprinted around Angel, performing various challenges along the way. Capturing those fast-paced moments meant getting creative with slow-motion footage and action shots, using the sunlight to our advantage whenever possible. The energy in each frame was heightened by the scenes London provided as the backdrop.
A high energy client
The high spirits of the company we were shooting made the day far easier and much more enjoyable. Their enthusiasm and competitiveness translated well on camera, making for some incredibly vibrant and genuine shots. Even with the logistical challenges of coordinating from different parts of the city, both the photographer and videographer managed to capture a range of angles, from candid close-ups to wide, scenic shots that showcased the thrill of the hunt.
