We started filming for the Brighton Festival promotional film this week and have just finished filming with the living legend that is Brian Eno. Check out these behind the scenes pix from our shoot at Fabrica in Brighton, stay tuned for the finished article.

Working with our friends at Qube and ZeroFiftyOne we produced this viral as part of a larger campaign to promote road safety in Sussex. It had been years since we had played with Scalextric but it’s just as fun as it was back in the 80s!

We’d like to welcome Sim Warren to our ever expanding team. Sim is joining us in early February and brings with him a wealth of video production experience and knowledge of the industry. To coincide with his interview at Fat Sand HQ, Sim shot this short film on the inline skaters who call Brighton home.

This was all shot on the Canon 7D using a variety of lenses and home made dollies. It’s amazing what can be done with the new range of SLR’s and we’re looking forward to passing on these skills to our clients.

We just chopped together a showreel for presenter extraordinaire Annelies Van De Velde. Not only is she an amazing presenter but she’s also the front woman for Brighton band, Kovak. Showreel features footage shot by us at the White Air Festival and some other bits and pieces from the Ripcurl Boardmasters.

Way back in September, Brighton played host to Europe’s largest extreme sports festival, White Air. Fat Sand covered the entire weekend which included a trip out with the Marines in their beach assault boats, stepping into the ring with UFC champ Sol Gilbert and getting in the thick of it during the Biffy Clyro gig.

So Ed and Jez were out in Boston and New York filming for one of our clients last week. Part of the job was to get some nice ‘location shots’ of each of the cities which basically involved an all expenses paid trip to each cities primo tourist spots.

Courvoisier – The Future 500 is an invitation-only network of innovative, humanitarian and extremely driven entrepreneurs and rising stars in the business world. They have teamed up with cmypitch.com to offer business mentoring via a Dragons Den style pitching process. Fat Sand covered the event and produced this short highlight film.

Tuesday night saw over 50 people turn out for the Brighton premiere of The Beautiful Losers at the Prescription Art Gallery. The current exhibition by the Heavy Artillery Crew complimented the film so perfectly and everyone left feeling inspired.
