Result

180 frames in the press kit

The short version

in a sentence

Our stills photographer spent 22 days on set. The press kit used 180 of his frames.

Why a stills photographer matters

Most drama gets stills from a few days on set and a lot of screen grabs. Fernhill booked Callum for the whole shoot, so the campaign could use real moments instead of staged ones.

He shot during rehearsals, between setups and on the quiet days no one else photographs.

From contact sheet to poster

The key art started as frame 17A on roll 14. We circled it on the lightbox on day 22 and built the poster around it.

What we delivered

Unit stills for all eight episodes, key art, a press gallery of 180 images and character portraits for the cast.

The picks.

Every campaign starts on a lightbox like this one. We circle the frames that could carry a poster, cross out the rest, and send the client ten picks the same evening.
