OriginsIt all started as an experiment. A family member had bought a video editing card for his PC and asked me to help him figure it out. When I was talking about this with a friend who is a professional dancer and dance teacher, we decided to make a promotional video for him. (This was before DVDs became the norm.)

The start of The Motion FactoryGoing from a hobby project to a professional video production company was a big step. It was time to take course, read lots of books, invest in professional equipment, form partnerships and of course lots of practice. And, just like with that very first video, our work was well received and new projects kept coming in based only on word of mouth..Also, the type of work started to branch out. From promotional and instruction videos to documentaries, theatre performances and even live music DVDs. The presentNow, more than ten years after that first video, The Motion Factory has evolved into a full service company with a network of experts. We've made many types of video like instructional videos, corporate video and theatre and live concert performances. We've filmed in many different countries including the Netherlands, Brazil, the UK, Spain, Portugal, Luxemburg and France.

If you want to film a live performance from different angles, you can't always use multiple cameras because of budget reasons or because the cameras will bother the audience. You can film close-ups during a rehearsal and then film wide-shots with the audience during the show. If the two recordings are combined and edited well, it'll seem like a multi-camera recording and noone will notice the difference. |
