Office Summer Party

More filming for the corporate video this afternoon, albeit that this time it was a group shot, and I didn't have to say anything, so it was much less intimidating. The theme of the video was meant to be about how my love of pubs had inspired the project I'm working on now, and so the filming had taken place in a variety of pubs. Today's shooting consisted of a sequence with no sound where we supposed to be pretending to be in the pub having a normal pub conversation (which came surprisingly naturally - in fact we quickly forgot the cameras were there) followed by a sequence of doing a big "cheers" to the camera. Given we were filming with real beer this also came surprisingly naturally.

By the time we'd finished filming it didn't really seem worth going back to the office - I had after all worked many late evenings and weekends in the run up to launching this project. So instead we went and visited a couple more pubs, including the Prince of Wales in Cleaver Square, and Zeitgeist, the German pub South of the river.

That followed on nicely into the office summer party, held at Kensington Roof Gardens, which was one of the best office parties we've had for a few years (although in fairness the last couple of Christmas parties have been real stinkers, so there wasn't much competition).
