I recently shot/edited these pieces for a fantastic local company called NatureScripts. Lisa Ochwat, the founder, is a one-woman band. She shoots letters she finds in nature, designs words with them, and then frames them using handcrafted wooden frames made by an Amish artisan out in Lancaster county.
For the videos, we wanted a light table look, but couldn't find an actual light table large enough for her longest frames. Solution: we made our own. The table was constructed with a metal Ikea frame and a translucent sheet of polymer. I placed an Omni with a white umbrella underneath the table and used a 1K chimera for key. The camera was mounted on a c-stand overhead and we used a small monitor for framing. The exterior footage was shot at a farm in Exton, PA.
