Light Hackers Photography - Post Services

Here at Light Hackers, we are not only commissioned to shoot for our clients, but also provide a 'post treatment to images already shot.

In this head shot we were asked to glamourize the shot provided to us. We ask for the high res file from which to work, and in this case we adjusted the levels, adding a treatment to the skin's texture and a slight glamour style effect found in many print advertisements.

Our photography post services are not strictly confined to portraiture work, but can be applied to both commercial, still life and landscape work too.

Please contact us for more details.

National Treasures Live Trail

For Red Bee Media and BBC we shot the trail / promo for the current series, National Treasures.

Presented by Dan Snow and Sian Williams, this 'live' event sees them travelling the British Isles exploring great sites of historic importance.

We shot the trails at Greenwich Naval College as PTC lead links.

New BBC Trails just TX'ed

We shot new trails for BBC's 'National Treasures' a series that will tour Great Britain uncovering the history of these Isles.

Again commissioned for Red Bee Media, this was a ...'walk in the park' if you pardon the pun!

The shoot was with presenters Dan Snow and Sian Williams in the picturesque setting of Greenwich Naval College

We will be posting the final trail soon!

Light Hackers Blog... All Welcome!

We here at Light Hackers are just ironing out the final kinks in the new site.

Cross browser viewing is a nightmare... damn you Chrome and Internet Explorer, hail Firefox and the winner Safari!!

Still a few pages to design, like our 'Behind the Scenes' gallery, and page entries for our core personnel.

This blog will keep you up to date with our recent work and also a portal for training and general viewpoints from us to you.

Recent work like a new trailer for BBC's 'National Treasures' where on a beautiful sunny day at Greenwich's old Naval College, we shot Dan Snow and Sian Williams for the series that sees them touring the country and discovering what treasures it holds.

A promo from the archives - BBC 'Genius'

Going through content for the new website, there was too many projects to have them all listed. Here is one from the archives, 2 promos for BBC 'Genius'. We got a call from Red Bee Media on a Friday afternoon, can we set-and light on Monday morning for a 60m2 garden set with shed, live turf and plants with the shoot on Tuesday?... YES Of course we can!

So Monday we were there with a 3 man HD crew, and lighting plan for the Gaffer and his team... our green fingered camera assistant, Danny Etheridge even laid a hell-a-lotta turf as well.

First a base light arrangement of a dozen+ space lights

... then a couple 10K lamps get wrapped in cookies n' flags

.. well the riggers 'SkyJack' was free!

'Genius' set almost complete... now for the landscaping, and we're good for rehearsals.

The shoot was a great success, and we actually wrapped this one ahead of time by several hours!... it's all in the prep!

Keep checking in to our blog for more projects and stuff!

New site is almost ready to launch... getting excited now!

In keeping with the old philosophy 'measure twice, cut once' we have been a tad picky in getting things ironed out for our new site.

However phase one is almost complete and so we hope to be launching the new site soon!!
