It is time for the launch of the latest film from the studios of Grumpy Git Productions. This is the second of several being produced for Poshboatz at Ferry Meadows, Peterborough. Each film serves a different and specific purpose, and today’s offering is aimed at attracting visitors to the traditional round-the-lake cruises.
The pace of this film remains constant, as the boat cruises around the lake at the same leisurely pace throughout the trip. Therefore the soundtrack needed to be a relaxing piece of music that would gently flow along, to pick up the viewer and transport them around the lake in a calm and unhurried fashion – I was going for the feel of a lazy Sunday afternoon here. Clair de Lune by Debussy admirably ticked all the boxes in this case, and whilst there are many versions available, I particularly enjoy this interpretation by Richard Clayderman and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
So, be seated in one of the sumptuous leather armchairs, take a sip of your lightly chilled Sauvignon Blanc 1998 and nibble on a chocolate Hobnob as we cast off on a circuit of the lake …

Lovely film, Martin. I think you must have some magical ability to make things happen, as the beautiful mist in the opening shots and the Heron are priceless. Debussy was a good choice for the music, it has a lazy. lyrical quality which fits well with your shots. Particularly like the shot when the boat is turning, very nice. Your customer should be very pleased indeed!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I got very lucky with the weather conditions, but training that heron was tricky!
