Shooting on a construction site has unique challenges for a photographer. Induction training is necessary to ensure that safety is a constant vigilance. The sheer scope of vistas and equipment requires adept composition. The operating cost (of many tens of thousands of dollars per hour), demands strict discipline and agility to capture desired images without affecting the pace of work on the site. Dust and mud offer technical challenges to ensuring the photographic equipment (and images) remain clear.

Digital Tsunami personnel have worked in the building, construction and engineering sector for decades. They have delivered photography, video and websites for clients including: Barclay Mowlem, Bilfinger Berger, Franki Contructions, Kerry Properties, Leighton Asia and Thiess Services Middle East.

The client works on major civil projects in Canberra, but possessed only a limited visual asset archive. Digital Tsunami initiated an archive with photography of a current project and plans for shooting selected elements of past projects and in future, further supplementing this with video.

Digital Tsunami has a long history of delivering photographic solutions for clients across a broad range of business sectors and geographical locations. Recent projects have included corporate portrait photography in Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth, manufacturing processes at a vast factory in southern China, and capturing images of products, exhibition booths and delegates at international trade shows in Amsterdam and Hong Kong.

Photography was completed today in Perth, Western Australia, after location shoots over the last two weeks in Queensland and Victoria.

For a law firm, corporate and architectural photography was captured in each of the three capital cities.

Primarily shooting corporate portraits of professional and administrative personnel, the opportunity was maximised by additional photography of interiors and exteriors of the office buildings.

The results will be integrated into the client’s new web presence and print collaterals.

Production of video for a new Foodbank in Australia website wrapped today after filming at the Foodbank NSW Distribution Centre.

Effectively a national logistics operation, Foodbank is the largest hunger relief organisation in Australia.

In partnership with the food industry, the corporate sector, governments, welfare agencies and volunteers. it aggregates donated food and grocery products at its distribution centres in six states, the Northern Territory and eight regional centres.

The crew was filming Foodbank operations, with a focus on the participation of food manufacturers and retailers, such as Woolworths, Kraft, Nestle, Moraitis; transport providers, such as Toll Logistics; corporates (whose employees volunteer for a day), such as PCW; and charitable agencies, such as Bay Care and Youth off the Streets.
