Dag van de zorg KEI

Iedereen is welkom op Dag van de Zorg in het KEI! Bezoekers worden verrast en met open armen ontvangen om te kijken en te beleven hoe het er aan toegaat achter de schermen van het Koningin Elisabeth Instituut. En wij maken foto’s van elke bezoeker 🙂 (publicatie foto met toestemming)

Living photographs

In other articles on this blog I already mentioned different techniques that can be used to convert a still image to something a bit more interesting. Most of these techniques do need short background videoclips, foreground clips or rely on greenkey to make it all work. Photoevents has always and still is in the forefront of volume production with up to 1000 pictures printed on location but these techniques take a bit more time and hence are not recommended for events with more than , say 300 guests. The example above is another take on ‘moving images’ without the use of videoclips, without the use of greenkey or any special setup. From photo to finished endproduct takes less than a minute and the image can be published on facebook within that same timeframe. A scannable code can be used to download the living photograph to a smartphone for immediate sharing on social media.

Carnavalszaterdag in Venlo, Roermond en Sittard

In opdracht van De Limburger waren we met zijn drieën om 9 u al present in Venlo voor een beeldverslag van de Boètegewoeëne Boètezitting, tegen de middag vertrokken we naar Roermond waar de sjtasiefestasie al in volle gang was en ‘s avonds sloten we af in Sittard voor ’t Kanón van ’t Balkón en ook daar hadden ze niet op ons gewacht. Mierendruk overal. Heerlijk om te doen maar uitgeblust na zo’n dagje en toch nog wat petrol over om de duizenden foto’s na te kijken en online te zetten. Fotografen van dienst: Jana Krizkova, Bart Desmet en ikzelf 🙂

Greenkey Plus

Using our greenkey we mix and match static images with a variety of moving backgrounds. The static version can be printed but the real joy is to get the image to the smartphone of the guest within seconds to share on instagram, facebook and the likes.

 

Do you really want your eventpictures public ?

Many years ago I developed software to collect images from several online sources including twitter and instagram. While I still offer this as an option, there are better ways to crowdsource images during your event.

A so called hashtag system can only gather images that are posted public and not everybody likes to post private pictures on a public platform. Second, some companies do not even allow eventpictures to go public at all. Third, what happens in Vegas …

The solution ?
A private weblink, only open to the guests.
This link, also available as a QRCode, allows people to take pictures with their smartphones (any model works) and in one simple step to upload the picture in a closed loop to our webprinters. Within seconds those pictures are printed on a central location at the event ready to take home.

And as always, pictures can be branded in any imaginable way.

Our server can handle thousands of uploads per hour while printercapacity starts at 250 pictures/hour up to 2000 pictures/hour.

Ideal for the coming festival season with the additional benefit of being able to channel traffic to your specific location !

Poetsbureau dolce la hulpe

Het poetsbureau koos er deze keer voor om iedereen de kans te geven een professionele portretfoto te laten maken. Met twee fotografen waren we daar een ganse dag zoet mee. Tussendoor zorgden we nog voor beelden van de diverse workshops en ‘s avonds maakten we nog een serie foto’s van het avondfeest. Op de foto zie je Jana onze fotografe van dienst.
