Toyota Australia's Financial Services Group was in fact quite involved.
The complication was brought about by a couple of factors.
Firstly, the ghost car effect was a device chosen by client and creative
in order to promote the aspirational idea that with the help of TFS your
dream Toyota could be a reality.
Secondly the requirement was that the final master file would need to be adaptable across multiple print platforms. What was required in short then is a super hi-res square-ish master file. This was achieved by shooting a 32-bit HDR panograph as background plate. This tricky bit of kit was putting it all together, which was expertly handled by Todd Sotheren at Creation Theory
A third little issue turned out to be finding suitable locations which had enough clean sky for headline and space for logo bottom right etc, whilst remaining in keeping with the clients brief.
Other little curve balls included the building site having had a shed full of cement bags dumped in the centre of our location despite all communiations and assurances that all would be untouched…so we spent some time getting a good physical workout getting that lot moved!

Synopsis: The story of Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling), a woman in her thirties who is sentenced to 15 months in prison after she is convicted of a decade old crime of transporting money for her drug dealing girlfriend (Laura Prepon).
Recently Jan Edwards worked on the HBO Asia and ABC co-production, Serangoon Road, as Set Decorator (episodes 6 -10).
The 10 part television drama series was shot in Indonesia, Batam Island and Singapore. Directed by Peter Andrikidis and Tony Tilse. Production Designer, Herbert Pinter.
Working with an Australian, Singaporean and Indonesian crew Jan decorated period Singapore streets, bars, fishing villages, various Chinese and Western interiors and more, shot on location in Batam and Singapore and the studio backlot and studios on Batam Island.
Serangoon Road is a period piece set against the backdrop of 1964 - 65 colonial Singapore where political and racial tensions are escalating as the British pull out. Serangoon Road unfolds as a mystery series but there are greater political overtones about the emergence of a culture from old to new.
Based around Aussie Sam Callaghan (Don Hany) who spends most of his time helping friend Patricia Cheng (Joan Chen) with the private detective agency she now runs after her husband was killed while working on a case.
Serangoon Road begins Sunday 22 September 2013 on ABC1, 8:30 pm.
Here is a recent portrait that Martin took for the German newspaper Die Zeit. It is of the Swiss psychiatrist Michael Kammer-Spohn and the article asks the question is it the psychiatrists fault when a patient commits suicide.
Janyon was getting a little bored with the rustic farmhouse so he challenged food styling couple Ben and Louise Masters to join him on a personal shoot to explore some out of the ordinary food images.
"I wanted to create some bold imagery that's in contrast to the soft-window-light, rustic french farmhouse genre. It's not that I don't like those images, they are often beautiful, but I think we need to move on."
Christian Mushenko's work for Zip Hydrotap has just gone to print. Here's what he had to say about the shoot:
"I've worked with Sherlock Creative shooting some stills for a Zip Hydrotap commercial staring Jamie Durie. It was shot in a gorgeous house in Avalon which is always a fantastic way to spend the day. I have worked with Jamie before and he’s a friendly and very down to earth guy. The hydrotap itself was pretty extravagant providing boiling water, sparkling water and ice-cold water on tap. That would be very handy in the studio."
Here is a travel story about Bregenz, Austria 'The Riviera on Lake Constance', shot by Martin Mischkulnig for the fashion magazine Annabelle (the Swiss equivalent of Marie Clare). Martin used his kids, Max and Lara, in the shoot (you can see them next to the giant ice cream).
