Forest Highlands is a 1,100 acre community featuring two golf courses and clubhouses. This was one of our several trips up to the community to get footage for a video for their website. While Scott and Jerry got footage on the ground, Ben was soaring up above in a helicopter getting some beautiful aerial shots.
Scott and Jerry started off the shoot by getting shots at a children’s golf camp that was occurring. For this specific shot, we used a piece of equipment called a jib. When mounted on a tripod, the jib works like a crane and is able to smoothly move up and down while keeping the focus of the shot the same.
We also used a piece of equipment called a slider. Once the camera is mounted on it, it is able to move slowly and smoothly from side to side, creating a really sleek effect.
After getting some more outdoor shots, we returned to the sales office to film interaction between a customer and a realtor, before heading to the clubhouse to shoot our testimonial. We interviewed the CFO of Forest Highlands using a double-camera setup to allow us to create more interest when we edit the final the product.
One of the most exciting parts of the shoot was heading out onto the golf course to get some fantastic action shots. Using the jib once again, we were able to get some incredible shots of golfers teeing off on one of the community's most magnificent holes.
On the green of the same hole, we used the slider to get some shots of the golfers putting.
After we were done on the course, we drove over to the clubhouse to get some shots of the many delicious meals offered there. The chef was kind enough to cook up some food for us to use, and we spent some time dabbling in culinary photography.
We’re headed back up to Forest Highlands to get some more footage at their Fourth of July festivities, and we’re excited to see how the final video turns out.
