Filming in a tight space is always challenging, but who doesn’t like a challenge? Placing the lights to create a cozy atmosphere and the microphones to capture the best sound possible at the same time is definitely doable.
This is the first published video from an project I did with my good friend David; Recording and filming three music videos on single Saturday afternoon. All three recordings are one takes, both visually and acoustically.

Having the outdoor metal festival “Open Air Gränichen” as a playground to test new film gear is great. It only gets better when you have the possibility to go everywhere on stage to get the bests shots. The goal for this project was “Film on Friday – Edit on Saturday – Release on Sunday”. Yes, it was ambitious but I didn’t even needed the whole Saturday for post-production and everything worked like a charm. Only one camera from my multi cam setup let me down.
This is the first project I did for Expellow, doing everything from the story writing, to filming and to the final edit. The band first wanted to have somebody to film their album release show. After the first discussion, the question came up, if it would be possible to have an additional music video shot before the festival seasons starts. Meeting the band on a Wednesday and presenting them the idea, the project had to be advanced even faster due to the holiday season starting. 3 days later, the first shooting day with the guitarist took place. One week later, all scenes with the band were filmed. All those shots were taken in front of their rehearsal room.
The third video I shot for Koenix was filmed in a restaurant in Büren an der Aare. The location was scouted two weeks prior and all necessary planning was carried out. On the last possible Saturday before the location re-opened after the pandemic we shot the scenes the drummer. The next day we had all the actors on set to fill the restaurant. The timeline in the video perfectly matched with the sunset and it all ended in a great party at the end.
Have you ever seen a forest made out of lanterns? Because that is what we created using the beautiful stage lights from Koenix as the props and key lights at the same time. This project was shot on the stage of the KUFA in Lyss within two days.
Koenix and I planned for a completely different video to be shot that weekend. But since Marco, the Sitar player got sick 5 days before the shoot, we needed either to postpone it or to come up with a solution. So we decided to film another song from their album where he wasn’t strictly needed. We scouted all locations on Saturday, created and changed the script throughout the day and shot the music video on Sunday.
