The Process

A crew of two together with the team at Open Door and Lakeland Dairies were present.  The filming took place at Lakeland Dairies bespoke professional kitchen in London and as we were familiar with the location a recce was not required.  We have filmed with William on other occasions and accustomed to his style of demonstration which made things easier on the day. The filming took a day to capture all the elements with some use of slow mo.  The photography element we captured at the end of the filming.  This was followed by a two day edit to create the masterclass video and trailer with graphics.  Once signed off they were outputted ready for the client to use on their website and social platforms.
