A behind-the-scenes look back at one of our many distinguished guests here at Sidecar Studios! RippleKey, an innovative film production company and digital agency, rented our studio for a commercial shoot for their client La Islas, a soda company that makes Aguas frescas.
Who is our most magical client? Definitely Harry Potter and the @CursedChildNYC! Here is a behind-the-scenes look at some interviews we conducted with the cast at the iconic Lyric Theater. The green screen and a well-placed @hudson_spider Parabolix light worked like a charm 🪄🎥
Here is a behind-the-scenes peek at an interview set-up for @Citadel, an investment firm that empowers ordinary people to pursue their best and boldest ideas. The @hudson_spider Redback is so key in creating a bright, yet soft, glow for the interview subject.
The commercial was released last week, with the aim of encouraging New Yorkers to apply for government jobs so that they can quite literally run this town!

Another Friday, another week gone! This week, we only managed to fully fund Richard Lepow’s @Kickstarter for his short film, “Ashes Under the Sand,” host another Last Wednesdays screening, and run a film business. What adventures will next week bring?
Hop on the D, F, N or Q train and ride all the way out to the last stop to see the Wonder Wheel in Coney Island! Here is a behind-the-scenes sneak peek from a shoot we did at this iconic location. Stay tuned for more previews from this shoot that took us to the five boroughs!
After wrapping on a doc shoot, our crew took a trip down memory lane at the @zeisscameralenses Demo Center in Sherman Oaks. The Demo Center offers cinematographers and filmmakers the opportunity to explore cinema history firsthand.
