LP Commercial Photography & Videography recently worked on an exciting product project with Velo Pushbike Parking Solutions encapsulates what we love about collaborating with local businesses.

Velo is redefining the modern bike rack experience with intelligent design and robust quality, transforming the way we store our bikes all over the world.

Velo, designed by Cobra, is a Brisbane-based family business, and it’s all about innovation. In this case, that creativity was put to use designing unique, custom solutions for storing our two-wheeled modes of transport in ways that are easy, secure, and attractive, as well as a simple and easy to use range of accessories.

Their reach extends far beyond the sunshine state too – with orders rolling in from as far as London, having installed 300+ units in Bishopsgate London U.K.

Client Collaboration and Problem Solving

LP loved working alongside Velo in the studio and on location to showcase their whole range in action and as product imagery. Since some of the bike racks were too large to easily transport to a traditional studio, a solution needed to be devised. So, with true problem-solving gusto, Velo built a temporary studio right around the units at their factory!

Their bike racks are one a kind! The Arc can store 2 bikes per unit but stacked in a line next to each other they could hold hundreds as seen in one of your videos there is no limit to how many units you could stack next to each other.  

A Cohesive Approach: Video & Stills

In opting for both stills and video, Velo ensured they had marketting material to cover all facets of the business, from social media to their website and beyond.

While stills were perfect for capturing the finer details such as the built-to-last craftsmanship and the sleek design, video provided an invaluable angle on how to use and the ease with which bikes can be stored using the racks.

The imagery was captured across three shoot sessions, in which we ensured a cohesive visual style at various locations.

Post-Production Power

In order to save time and cost for our client, human post-production and Ai was utilised to put the bike racks into realistic settings. By placing them digitally into parking environments as well as interiors, we provided a way for potential clients of Cobra to envision what the racks might look like on their own premises.

Meticulous details to correct scale and environment was key here, and in the end, the results speak for themselves.

If you have a product of project that needs a collaborative effort, consider LP and contact us today. We’ll do you up a custom quote, discuss strategies with you, and provide exactly the imagery you need for your business.

A JOB THAT'S OUT OF THIS WORLD: Brisbane Product Photography

A JOB THAT'S OUT OF THIS WORLD: Brisbane Product Photography

Every now and then along comes a job that is simply out of this world…. When we got a call from PFi in Darra to help them out with a commercial product photography project we suddenly realised that this would be one of them…. Quite literally!!!

You see PFi is a bit special…. Amongst lots of other things, this Darra-based company make rocket engines, work with organisations such as NASA and Northrop Grumman and are about to revolutionise STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) teaching across the world… and maybe a bit beyond.

Moreover they are about to become the only Australian company to export an Australian designed and constructed rocket engine.

The reason they called us was to help them with a project they are undertaking with their new business partners, Northrop Grumman, around an ingenious, desktop rocket engine designed and built by PFi’s General Manager of Defence and Aerospace Projects, Nick Green.

What is so ingenious about this new rocket is that it is designed to be built and fired by school children and their STEM or science teachers making rocket science understandable along the way.

Now Northrop Grumman, one of the biggest players in the world aerospace and defence industry, has thrown its weight behind PFi and the two are now planning to distribute the STEM rocket to schools around the global, helping to shape the next generation of Rocket Scientists and engineers.

PFi called LP Commercial Photography in to create professional photography for joint marketing material for PFi and Northrop Grumman. The job entailed two photoshoots. The first a set of product images showing the unit in various stages of construction, followed by a second commercial lifestyle photoshoot with students at Sheldon College using and interacting with the STEM rocket. Sheldon is a forward-thinking school near Brisbane which is already planning to prepare their student body for the latest stage in the Space Race by building Space Academy.

With Australia looking to become more of a player in the Space industry through the ongoing work of the Australian Space Agency, companies like PFi will be setting the standard and leading the way.

Personally, it was an absolute joy to be involved in this project and spend time chatting to Nick about his passion. Born the year before the first moon landing, space travel has always been a major interest of mine. As a child, the ceiling of my bedroom was covered in Space Shuttle wallpaper and the last thing I saw each night before closing my eyes was the stars above me with a multitude of space shuttles blasting through the cosmos. 

Airfix models of the Saturn 5 rocket and the lunar lander were on my bookshelf and Space 1999 was simply the best TV show ever made to my mind. Then as a young man in my 20’s visiting Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Centre and actually seeing a space shuttle ready for launch (albeit through a massive pair of binoculars LOL) is a memory that stays with me to this day nearly 30 years later.

Knowing that there are companies like PFi right on our doorsteps here in Brisbane, helping mankind to push the boundaries and to get the chance to play even the tiniest role in that, just puts a great big grin on my face.
