LNG Productions is proud to co-produce Video Game High School in conjunction with FreddieW. Video Game High School is a feature length web-series due for release mid-March 2012.  Stay posted as we keep you updated with the latest news.

About the project;

It's the near future: You're dead. Your kids are probably dead. Your grandkids (if they're alive) are playing video games. Why? Because professional gaming is the biggest sport on earth.

Around the world, millions of players duke it out in fighters, RTS’s, First Person Shooters and more. To the victors go the spoils: glory, clan contracts and million dollar endorsements. The best young gamers are recruited by elite boarding schools to sharpen their skills. The best of the best go to VGHS: VIDEO GAME HIGH SCHOOL.

VGHS is a feature-length action/comedy web series (9 episodes, ~10 mins per episode) about best friends, first loves, and landing that perfect head shot. It follows Brian, a young FPS player stuck in a town where he doesn’t belong. His fortunes change when he scores a massive kill against the world’s top amateur player: VGHS senior “The Law.”

Concord Pacific / Case Study / Corporate

Park Place Marketing Videos

Concord Pacific required a series of impact videos to showcase their "Designer Showcase" at their Park Place Surrey development.

The project brief was to create a series of vignettes that showcased each designer, in addition to 'Before & After' images to demonstrate the transformation of the spaces.

The project tied in with a global advertising campaign including a website showcase in addition to a 60 second nationwide television spot, including Mandarin & Cantonese Audiences.

This was a mixed media project involving video, still photography, timelapse, and 3D Animation.

We were responsible for all aspects of production: Script Writing, Creative Treatment, Still Photography, Timelapse, Editing/Post Production, Voice Over Recording and translation for Asian audiences.

Real Estate Channel / Case Study / Broadcast

For the launch of the Real Estate Channel into Ontario on ROGERS, LNG Productions created an Ad-Avail to inform the viewers of the launch date.

This is simply one of over 100 broadcast promos/commercial ads we have produced and created for the Real Estate Channel and it's ad clients.

LNG Productions / Case Study / Viral

The whole idea of this project was to create a video that would spread viral across the Internet building up to the Stanley cup final.

We went with the idea of showcasing the different types of Canucks fans but over exaggerating their personalities to give the video a comedy edge and with hopes to gain views from a wider audience.  The main challenge was trying to find out exactly what style the video should be; we researched many viral comedy videos in the process to come up with the final concept.

The video became a big success and was featured on many of Vancouver’s most popular blog websites, as well as appearing on the front page of the Canucks fan section of their website.  With these popular websites at our disposal we managed to gain thousands of views for the video.

Kodak / Case Study / Viral

Overview

LNG Productions Partnered with Kodak's Online Marketing Branch in New York City to create a music video shot exclusively on their consumer grade, waterproof cameras to showcase the high image quality and unique advantages to working with such an affordable and small piece of equipment.

Challenges

Creating a music video that looks like it was shot on a hollywood budget with all the latest toys and equipment is extremely challenging in it's own right; however, creating something visually appealing utilizing a camera that costs under $150 is a whole other story. When working on creative projects, you are used to having complete control over every piece of equipment and have the ability to adjust basic elements such as the exposure and shutter speed of the camera. The Kodak Playsport is a fully automatic camera with a fixed focal length and fixed aperture lens. What this means is that you cannot control the camera in a traditional sense. You need to control the camera strictly through how you light a particular shot and what frame rate you choose to shoot at.

Summary

These same challenges open up an incredible amount of freedom as well. By limiting your technical ability in some regards, you creative ability is unleashed to showcase a product and show that with skill and creativity the camera is merely one tool you use to create an engaging video. In the end Kodak was extremely impressed with the video and marketed it on their "So Kodak" Facebook Fan Page and Blog. We continue to enjoy a relationship with Kodak and have plans to do another experimental marketing campaign using some of their newer cameras to shoot a short film.
