Its Mopani Pharmacy Barberton XCM MTB Challenge ! What was it all about? Well, combine some good rain, add in some soil, mix well with some tread and you get one intense organic mud facial and one epic MTB Video! What a Saturday it was, we are pretty sure that Barberton XCM MTB was a very solid wake up call to the riders kicking off their 2020 bucket list season. We were super pleased to spend the day in our back yard and capture the mud, sweat and determination on a race that is seen as Brutiful in some of the oldest mountains in the world. The slogan: "Not as delicate as a daisy" lived up to its name once again. -  Keen on cranking next year ?

Wildside enduro! Its quite a unique story, before 2019 we used to drive past Badplaas often en-route to many event destinations or ocean holidays, on the right hand side towards Lochiel are 2 large granite monoliths that have been asking to be explored every time we've passed them, who knew that eventually we would be racing around and over them with our camera gear capturing the beauty of the place together with the craziness of Enduro riding. Watch the weekends racing unfold:

Personalised Branding and corporate identity... Its been a number of years that we have worked closely with Tracey, most notably through Halls Fresh produce. With incredible experience working in the corporate marketing world for a number of years she has been a meticulous client that we have really enjoyed working with. So when it came to her asking us for website images for her new company as an organisation and life coach we knew it was going to be a specific brief. As creatives we tend to conceptualise a lot of our shoots but sometimes it really helps to be briefed on the look and feel of the clients corporate identity before commencing a shoot so that we can be creative within the boundaries of the clients personalised branding.

It's not everyday that we get to shoot at the "Shark Tank", the home of Sharks Rugby since 1968. A stadium of history  dreams , hard work and lot's of talent. These three things basically sums up  Mattress warehouse's newest corporate ambassador Aphelele Fassi, a full back for the Sharks rugby XV.  Matress Warehouse has a host of  rugby Corporate Ambassadors who endorses the Kooi brand , one of the products that they sell. We were tasked to provide the mattress warehouse with photographic content of Aphelele Fassi , in order for them to use the content on their digital marketing platforms. To get a real look and feel we had to get Aphelele Fassi in action and this meant a quick trip to " the Shark Tank" All in all we're pretty happy with how the images turned out! Throw a talented photographer  and a talented rugby player together at an  epic location and the final result will always be epic!  Visit the koi website Here to see more of their corporate ambassador   profiles. https://www.kooibeds.com  To see more of the Matress Warehouse work we've recently done visit the link below : https://phonixcapture.co.za/matress-warehouse/ [FinalTilesGallery id='14']

Supplying the best quality Macadamia and tree-nut products through superior commitment to our customers, employees and stakeholders.

Agristar, a fourth-generation agricultural farming business, commenced farming in 1948 with sugarcane and subtropical fruit in the eastern regions of Mpumalanga, before specialising its operations into tree nuts – specifically macadamias and pecans – over 35 years ago.

 As a company Agristar hasn’t  earned this title by just planting trees and producing high quality export products. No, they are fully aware that they have to constantly grow not just trees but they also their digital footprint. We live in a digital age, and people want to see where the things they eat come from. Where it is grown and which processes it goes through. Basically from Farm to kitchen. Agristar approached Phonix Capture to assist them with video content of their operations to increase the digital footprint of their company profile. Their aim was to get innovative creative professional video content that they could use for their website,  digital media and other marketing platforms, that gets distrubuted to stakeholders and consumers.  Our brief was to showcase their farm in the entire context. From seedlings to packhouse and every aspect in between. Planting , irrigation, soil tests, machinery and one of Agristar’s most valued assets their staff. We needed to get video content  the whole mac process. This required is to shoot in a lot of different environments and conditions with a lot of the shots being shoot as you go – a farm never stands still and we needed to improvise and adapt the way we shot as you only get a few minutes with a chosen subject.

Being Agricultural Videographers in nelspruit  is immensely rewarding and insightful. You get to meet the faces behind the product on the shelves. You learn basic food processes and get a view into the world of exports. Getting video content in an environment where we constantly meet new people and learn new things keeps it interesting and rewarding. Agriculture is synonomous with the lowveld and therefore it is one of the areas where we tend to  specialize in. Working with the Agristar group has been a great journey thus far, and producing their corporate marketing video has definitely been one of the highlights of our work in the Agricultural industry.
