tattoo doc on tele

on natalie cassidys real britain on BBC3 she has had a tattoo artist from london finding her self a new shop. but whats interested me more is the shots of tattoos that they have shot in a studio. its like they have a revolving stage or something and the camera tilts up or zooms out from a position. damn i want to be able to do that.
anyway, been working on the title sequence as not had any shooting this week. its looking good, just needs fine tuning once the rest of the group has seen it and like how its going.

waiting for the contributors

it looks like my group and i will now have to travel to see the contributors and take photos and film the interview in their home or a suitably comfortable location. ah well. more fuss but i suppose it gives a bit more variety to the interview pieces with each background being in some way relevant to the subject on screen.
