Creating media for an active world

A bike or a piece of art? This was hard to secure and film, a bike brand, history has forgotten but one that was revolutionary at its time. The brand Hotta, delivered a Tour de France prologue victory and Olympic medals.

As cycling experts, we know what your bike means to you. So when it’s time to upgrade, what do you do with your old bike? We re all about story telling or finding amazing stories that need telling. Do you keep your old bike(s) and how do you honour it? Share your pictures for our inspiration.

Only a few stages left to see who is on the podium in Italy on Sunday. Geraint Thomas back when Sky launched, had our support as one of the riders who always had time for people and the best banter! In many ways, nothings changed. 14 years on we will be enjoying Sundays big day and supporting him. Come on G!

How would you feel facing 2500m of climbing when you can see snowflakes at breakfast? Today’s Giro stage is in question as the riders protest against riding over the Umbrail Pass. They are certainly not shying away from the challenge but where is the line between entertainment (of the fans and tv rights holders) and the riders safety? It’s never dull at a Grand Tour, that’s for sure!

19/05/2024

What a race! The average cycling fan will tune into the Tour de France and enjoy the spectacle, yet not every single one of those fans will watch Giro d’Italia. However the race for the pink jersey never disappoints. 3 weeks, 3,400.8km with 44,650 metres of climbing, it’s brutal. The difference to the TdF is the people. Having worked on both grand tours, the passion of the Italians make the Giro somehow more organic. Today was no exception with the tactical mastery that means the race, has pretty much been won today by Tadej Pogacar on stage 15 (a week before the race officially finishes). But we will look forward to another weeks racing to see who will lift the 🏆 . Go G!

03/05/2024

We enjoy creating all types of sports content but we love cycling. As the starts tomorrow, we can’t wait to tune in, stage 15 looks brutal. Filming in the mountains has its challenges but the shots are worth the effort. Let the fun begin

02/05/2024

Our record number of hours on court in one week is 29. We believe in the importance of specialism. Do you think it makes a difference?

01/05/2024

When exciting projects are on the horizon, it’s been so useful to remember and learn from older ones. What made this production was working with local crew. Their knowledge, their access, their commitment couldn’t have been beaten.

Happy International Women’s Day. A handful of the influential positive women we ve enjoyed working with. 🙏

06/03/2024

FC owners, 1000+ sky dives, trekked into the jungle & brothers in business. A fascinating meeting today with Paul TISDALE and the Petruzzo brothers

Meeting budgetary expectations while delivering creative can be challenging. We discovered that breaking down our process into clear steps improved client understanding and enhanced the creative outcome. Here part 2 of 3 is where the creative is refined, and expectations are crucially established

16/02/2024

As we continue to work with the LTA, we gain further insight into what it really takes to go on the pathway to become a professional tennis player for Great Britain. It was great to see GB winning this International event and how important the right environment is to creating the balance of competition v fun.

14/02/2024

4 matches, 5 rounds, mixed and doubles, 3 cameras, 8 players, 5 coaches, 2 languages, 5 interviews and 9 vox pops and all in 4K including aerial & a lot of media to review! This is a good example of typical Box3Media 1 day shoot on location

09/02/2024

One part of our brief for this project was to future proof the concept. Offering a creative concept that would work for the launch of and be reversioned for multiple territories in 2024/5. It was a great collaborative project, delivering multiple assets cost effectively. From The Indian Ocean to Middle East, Europe, Latin America & Australasia, find out more at https://thetravelhubcollection.co.uk/

The hard wake ups are nearly always worth it. Day 20 of my January challenge was to overcome the ice. Cracking morning 🤛

19/01/2024

Our Creative Director worked for Sky for 10 years. The last few years for Team Sky. Including the launch in 2010. This mantra has stuck with Vix and she enjoys sharing it with the team and applying the ethos to projects.

Our Wednesday motivation, what’s yours?

15/01/2024

We love a motto that simply but effectively communicates the beliefs of a brand. This one subtly placed on Santini’s bib shorts, resonated with us. What’s your favourite motto? Share it with us

13/01/2024

Our last post, reflecting on the year ahead. Some of our favourite shots & moments. I wonder what 2024 will have in stall? First shoot coming soon 🎾 GB v Belgium International

27/12/2023

Our next filming location has to be here! “Stické provides most vigorous exercise, and at the same time affords considerable opportunity to the player who uses his head. Curious twists can be obtained by hitting on the side walls, and the ball often has an egg-shaped appearance. There is little doubt that stické is a splendid game for country houses, where racquets courts are too large an undertaking and squash racquets provides too insipid an amusement.” - From The Times II March 1910.

22/12/2023

Working with good people results in great content.

19/12/2023

Last shoot of 2023 in the can! Today marked the start of great new project.

15/12/2023

Creativity arises from seeing things from many different angles. Whatever our starting point on a job, we try to bring a unique viewpoint to every shoot.

13/12/2023

A week before a shoot, the variables of any production are vast. It’s the small things that make the difference and that allows everything to come together on the day. The pressure is what we love

08/12/2023

So much time goes into a studio shoot. It’s props, people and pose time this week for Box3Media. Our motto: “Plan for the shot and then plan for it to be different”.

06/12/2023

Continuing our pre production for our next studio shoot, we remember why we love it. The set up is not quick but the potential in turning a blank canvas into our / clients vision is why we bother!

24/11/2023

It’s been a week of thinking of travel locations for Box3Media. Why does location matter?
Marketing and Audience Appeal.

Recognisable or unique locations can contribute to the marketing and promotion of a production. Iconic landmarks, picturesque landscapes can generate interest, alongside the product that is being promoted. Now for permissions 🤞

20/11/2023

The choice of location & the way we film significantly impacts the overall quality and success of the final product. This week as we scout locations for a new client, we consider what we think are the 3 key factors. Appeal…it enhances the overall cinematography making the visual experience more captivating. One quick way to delivering for any and all clients.

28/10/2023

What is our shooting ratio? It depends on the end product. But first and foremost, it depends on the creative. We adapt but always prioritise variety, quality combined with a clear direction of how the shots will be used. So our aerial work is key and no challenge is too big. Photos

Pt 3 - What’s the first stage of any project? Visualisation and planning so we can turn the idea into reality and make people aware of the brand, product or story. Here’s some of our favourite shots and moments on location, meeting and interviewing talented athletes.

Part 2 - What have we been up to? We’re not just sitting around twiddling our thumbs waiting for things to happen. With our go-to people around the globe, we’re spread across different time zones, working round the clock to get things done faster. That means we can deliver results in record time without sacrificing an ounce of quality. If you don’t believe us, test our chat by getting in contact!

People have been asking…. #halfironman #creativedirector #triathlon #specialists #content #directing #differentlens

We would probably all hope that excellence is transferalble and especially when it comes to sport. We interviewed 20+ LTA British coaches & asked them the question. Do players make good coaches? What do you think ?

2023 Wimbledon Doubles Champion Neal Skupski with x 6 Grand Slam Champion Joe Salisbury. Were they discussing what they were going to have for lunch or was it a game changing strategy?

If you could slow down time and review how you performed, what would you do differently?

For one project, Box3Media decided to step away from sport. For this reason, this project stood out but also it reminded us that when individuals with diverse backgrounds, skills, and perspectives come together to collaborate creatively, the different viewpoints around the table are really refreshing. This diverse starting point really helped us push the boundaries and offer something new and unique. https://thetravelhubcollection.co.uk/

Last week saw the launch of The Travel Hub Collective. A passport to world of travel expertise, born out of an industry uniting during covid and lockdown. A creative collaboration between Small World Marketing and Box3Media, delivering a launch film, designed to surprise, excite and tease the travel industry and consumers to find out more about this new collective. Watch the trailer here and find out more: https://thetravelhubcollection.co.uk/

Football, swimming or running? Described often as a ‘beautiful game,” it’s the sport that encapsulates the essence of teamwork, strategy, and skill. The thrill of football lies in its unpredictable nature; a game can be transformed in a matter of seconds. Or swimming, the sport that combines grace and power, it’s a world where every stroke counts, and the resistance of water demands a harmonious blend of strength, technique, and rhythm. The thrill in swimming comes from the intense head-to-head competition. Or running? One of the most fundamental of human activities, it offers pure simplicity and a raw challenge each and every. The thrill of running comes from the personal battle against the most honest of opponents – distance and time. To the film makers, what’s easiest to film? To sports consumers, what’s the most entertaining? We love all sports. MAKING CONTENT FOR AN ACTIVE WORLD #BOX3MEDIA

We wanted to convey our core values, mission, and what we stand for. Achieving this via 10 or less shots has been a great challenge. As a sports person, consumer of sport or just someone who enjoys watching sport, we wanted to make a connection on an emotional level. Part 1 of 3. Let us know your thoughts on our new header, going live on Box3Media website on Friday when the last third is revealed

Another preview of whats to come from Box3Media. This is the youngest age group we were working with on this project U10s at Bromley. A complex audio set up, parents watching on and 6hrs on court for the kids.

For 18months Box3Media has collaborated with LTA In locations across the country. Creating long and short form digital content. Here’s some of our favourite moments and preview of what’s to come.

Moments we love - when the Behind the Scenes Film Op @ivanooliver shares his moment with an aspirational football player on a wet tennis court in Brazil. There is a sports fan in all of us 💥

Make a wish this Monday morning? Thousands of people have done the same here. Tying on a coloured thread at the incredible location @basilicadapenha_rec where Box3Media was lucky enough to visit & film at for FIFA. Made possible by the very talented fixers @fabiorondinelle and @omundoadams and incredible team behind @rocky.hehakaija. It was a special moment with @rebecabomani street footballer comes fashion model.

“It’s about team, it’s about players in a team, thinking the same thing, at the same time, in the right place”. Paul TISDALE, Tis Talks Team

It is impossible not to walk through this hall of fame & not leave feeling motivated. If we can capture 10% of this commitment, hard work and passion on camera when we are filming, we are winning! Surround yourself with good people and good things happen!

Elongating these stills allows the fleeting moment to be felt by all. Sport is quick and intense so taking the time to be in, feel and digest the moment means we are able to capture another side to sport. These technical and calculated movements that make the impossible possible. Allows us to see how these athletes like Max Whitlock OBE British Gymnast take the gold. #maxwhitlock #gymnastics #athlete #british #olympics #sport #sportmedia

Our second unexpected moment is Rebecca Adlington OBE Retired British Olympic Swimmer. This was a lovely project, albeit challenging. We wanted to mark and celebrate these moments by extending them. So we decided to invest in post to extend every frame of action.

We have learnt to expect the unexpected and sometimes we capture moments or emotions that unfortunately don’t fit the brief. This week we want to highlight some of these emotive moments that are specials and worth the spotlight. Here is Jessica Ennis-Hill DBE Retired British Track & Field athlete in the zone with her coach. This still photograph was captured while on shoot and in post we have created a lasting moment, re-creating the atmosphere. #unexpected #moments #jessicaennishill #athlete #sport #coach
