Landscape Artist Of The Year

Entertainment

The Brief:
SPS were engaged by StoryVault Films to provide full post-production on Series 6 (x9 45-min episodes) of ‘Landscape Artist Of The Year’. The brief was to recreate another high-value season following Stephen Mangan, Joan Bakewell, Tai Shan Shierenberg, Kathleen Soriano & Kate Bryan on their search for the nation’s best landscape painter.

The Solution:

We selected a team that were able to utilise HP Remote Graphic Software to connect to the edit suites at Sky’s campus, allowing them to sidestep work from home issues and COVID-related time constraints. Similar to ‘Portrait Artist Of The Year’ S7, dedicated tech support groups helped our team follow COVID-specific workflows, relying on a combination of different communication channels, 9 simultaneous remote offlines and multi-tasking episodes at once, to complete the project in a short turnaround time between RX and TX.

Wrapped up in Autumn/Winter of 2020, the longform project was edited in Avid Media Composer & Symphony, given a Baselight grade and a Pro Tools audio mix, and delivered for transmission on Sky Arts.

The Team:
Chris Hay, Paul Kingstree, Will Teversham - Editors
Megan Harrison, David Wybrow - Edit Assistants
Finn Curry - Audio
Ben Whitney - Colourist
Naman Davda - Workflow Supervisor
Rebecca Amarasinghe - Post Production Coordinator
Oliver Bramley - Post Producer

"The SPS team did a sterling job navigating the extra challenges brought about by the pandemic, and they gave us tremendous support in implementing a new COVID-friendly workflow. SPS’ patience and diligence were vital in overcoming the frustrations of remote working and delivering great shows."
