DeChoker Films National Infomercial in Our St Petersburg Video Studio

“The DeChoker is an FDA Class 2 Medical Device…” read the teleprompter when we filmed an infomercial for the new invention at our St Petersburg video studio. Inventor Alan Carver came up with the idea while sailing, where there were limited options for choking victims. Now he aims to save lives both on land and at sea. Litewave Studios was excited to host Alan and the DeChoker team at our Tampa video production studio where we filmed with a variety of equipment right on our Tampa white cyc studio, which offers a seamless backdrop of over 50 feet.

The DeChoker team celebrates a successful shoot with our St Petersburg video crew.

Litewave Studios’ director and cinematographer, Christian Cashmir, filmed the commercial using our studio’s Tampa video equipment rental package, including a Canon C300, Canon cinema lenses, and our teleprompter. For lighting, our Kino Flo Divas, and 4′ Four banks lit up our talent with a soft, stylized look. Altman LED cyc lights lit our Tampa white cyc studio and gave the shoot the clean and professional look our client was looking for.

Actress Michele Yeager came on-board as spokeswoman for the commercial. We filmed her scenes on our Tampa green screen studio so we could add in dynamic graphics during post production.

One of the many testimonials we filmed for the DeChoker infomercial.

With our Florida film crew on set to light our Tampa green screen, filming for the commercial went off without a hitch. After a great shoot, we began the next objective: shaping the footage in the edit suite. The editing team cut together 10 different versions of the commercial suited for different media, and even a European version that went on air this week!

A Variety of Projects Filmed in our Tampa Green Screen Video Studio!

Litewave Studios rounded out 2014 with three green screen projects from three diverse companies. Our clients enjoy the freedom and infinite possibilities that the green screen provides to their video projects. Litewave Studios’ Tampa green screen rental is perfect for projects of all shapes and sizes.

Brandon Honda was looking to create a modern television campaign with their owner/spokesperson interacting with the Brandon Honda web site. This series of 10 TV commercials, filmed in both English and Spanish, was filmed in our Tampa green screen studio and the visual effects were created in one of our Tampa post-production editing suites. Litewave Studios used a combination of Adobe After Effects and Premiere to achieve the high-end visual style our client was looking for. See the commercial below:

HealtheSystems, a longtime client of Litewave Media, was looking to film a series of informational videos on healthcare with their medical directors. The Litewave Studios’ crew created a two-camera setup in our Tampa green screen studio. The green screen was keyed out and the Tampa skyline background added in post-production. Additional voice-overs were then recorded in the sound booth of our Tampa Recording Studio to complete the project.

The green screen studio crew preps the talent.

Hip Hop Recording Artist Films Music Video at Tampa’s Litewave Studios

Isis Sonatra, an up-and-coming recording artist hailing from Miami, partnered with Litewave Media to produce a music video for her new single “Will You Be My Boyfriend?”.

Impressed with Litewave Media’s track record of successful music videos (with over 2 million views from our two latest music videos), Isis traveled all the way across Florida with her dance crew to film with Litewave Media and its crew. ”I am so thankful that I found a video studio in Florida with the quality of L.A. and the touch of being at home. You guys rock!” Isis said.

One of the scenes shot at Litewave Studios, Tampa Video Studio, features a sensuous salsa dance scene between Isis and her ‘boyfriend’, played by Leandro Freiria. Jeff, our set designer, used faux brick wall flats with parts of the white cyc exposed (saturated in red and blue lights at different points in the video) to create an urban stylized background. Anya and Melissa, our hair and makeup team, styled and created several glamorous looks for Isis throughout the video.

Isis-Rain-BLOG

Litewave Studios’ newest weapon in the arsenal is ‘The Rain Machine’ which we used to film Isis’ dance sequence. Built by Randy, our video studio engineer and Pinky, our studio tech, The Rain Machine creates a realistic rain effect in an 8′ square area. Litewave Studios’ lighting designer, Andrew, and his grip Sasha, used a strong backlight to accentuate the rain to create this unique, colorful shot.

Isis, along with Christian, the Director and DP, found several locations in St. Petersburg, including some picturesque sunrise footage at The Getaway Tiki Bar on the water, Beach Drive downtown, and even a horse and carriage ride through Straub Park. Litewave Studios worked hand-in-hand with the Pinellas County Film Commission to secure permits to film in these locations. Our Assistant Camera, Brandon, 2nd Unit DP, John and Production Assistant, Tony also kept the wheels turning smoothly over the two-day shoot.
