Origin Energy: Griffith Solar
Directed and shot by Joe Wigdahl
Editing by Cloud Herd Films
A few months ago, Origin Energy asked me to shoot a commercial of a new, large solar installation in the large rural town of Griffith, New South Wales. This is my first full motion ad that I’ve directed and shot and also my first motion spot featuring drone footage that I shot. It took several trips over several months to capture the installation and completion and many, many hours of driving to get back and forth from this distant country town.
ORIGIN Energy: Solar for Industry photo shoot
I recently shot a small library of images for Origin Energy’s solar division for both industry and residential uses. I’ve been using a drone more often lately in my advertising shoots where we need a variety of landscape shots to tell the whole story. This was definitely a shoot where using a drone was actually a real necessity and would have been impossible using a helicopter as I probably would have done 5 years ago.
Brickworks Portraits
I recently worked with the Sydney design firm DesignSuite on a range of portraits of some of the people who keep the huge Australian brick and tile manufacturer Brickworks running.
