Having come second in the bidding process on this series of videos about food for the Ministry of Tourism, Nick Ray from Hanuman Films was kind enough to get in touch to offer me some work as a drone operator and videographer on some of the shoots.
It was a fun job which included filming on the coast in Kampot and Kep, filming at the Angkor Archealogical Complex, where I was lucky enough to have permission to drone around the temples. I also got to visit my old stomping grounds in Mondulkiri where I caught up with some of my Bunong friends that I hadn’t seen for a few years.
I’ve collaborated with Sujash on a number of projects. It’s always been an easy process, so when he launched Pixels Peers, a creative agency specialising in motion design, 2D and 3D animation and explainer videos, it seemed like a logical move to get me in to work as the videographer and editor for the agency to help expand the range of services they can offer. I look forward to posting about future collaborations with them.
Mike at Khreativa Cambodia asked me to give him some examples of my drone photography for the launch of his new creative agency. It was great going back through the Wild Frontiers archives and looking at some of the photos I’ve taken in my time since returning to Cambodia.
While I mainly work as a videographer and often only take photos as an afterthought, the creative possibilities of aerial photography are massive. It would be great to work on some personal projects that are focussed on taking still images with the drone.
Khreativa is an emerging, new, creative agency based in Siem Reap. Mike, the creative director, is a long-term friend and collaborator, so when he told me he was setting up a creative agency and wanted me to be a part of it, I was happy to help out to showcase some of the work I’ve been doing as a videographer and drone operator over the past few years.
Mainly a selection of my shots, with a couple from Bunsak, I edited this video and added the sting to show some of the drone work we’re capabale of. It was a great trip down memory lane looking at some of the footage I shot when working as a videographer for Wild Frontiers.
