Work from the desk

Stills, film and finishing. The first row is the job we would still take tomorrow. Scroll the rail, then read the days as they ran.

Oak tables and brass lamps in a Chișinău dining room on Ismail

Ismail 12, two days

The dining room had just changed its lamps. We measured the window at 08:40 and again at 16:10, wrote both hours into the plan, and kept the brass from eating the table linen.

Day one was stills of empty places. Day two was service, three cameras out of the frame, no extra light after 15:30. Selects left the desk Thursday at 17:40: 62 frames, named as the brief asked, no extra set.

The house sits between Ismail and București. Parking is on the courtyard side; we put that on line two of the plan so the van did not idle on the tram line.

Stoneware and linen under north light

Bowls in hall A

A shop on str. Pușkin sent three glazes and a linen roll. We used the north window in hall A, no heads, four hours. 28 frames. The west window was taped off because October bounce from Mateevici runs warm after lunch.

Delivery was the next day at 11:15, with a short note on which bowl chips on camera. The client printed from the grade, not from the selects.

Wool coat in a Chișinău courtyard

Courtyard off Armenească

Ivy, peeling cream plaster, one hour of side light. We recce’d at 15:10 the day before and booked the door with the neighbour who keeps the key. No generator. Still list: coat, shoes, a bench that we did not move.

Job 47 that year. Twenty-one stills, finishing on Friday. The courtyard is a three-minute walk from the hall; we did not take the van.

View from a balcony onto Chișinău facades and autumn trees

From the balcony to the boulevard

A short picture for a house that sells rooms on bd. Ștefan cel Mare. We needed the yellow facades, the chestnut, and a quiet sidewalk. Primăria had the notice a week ahead. We shot from 15:20, when the sun clears the cornice, and stopped at 16:35.

The finished piece is 47 seconds after grade. Sound was the street as it stood; we did not loop traffic. Selects the next afternoon, grade on the sixth working day, as written.

Cobblestones in Chișinău old town

Wet stone, one morning

Rain had passed at 07:00. We kept the call at 08:15 because the cobbles on Armenească hold a reflection for less than an hour. No lights. Two people, one track from hall B.

The plan named three doorways and forbade shop fronts with lettering. We turned around twice. Material was at the desk by 13:40 the same day.

Finishing room in Chișinău at blue hour

Grade after the lamps

The Ismail dining room came back with skin that the brass wanted to turn orange. We held it in the grade room after 17:00, when the window is taped and the desk is the only light.

Delivery Friday 17:20: stills in the folder named by course, film in a 1920 master and a 1080 for the site. We do not keep an open mood after that hour. If the house wants a second pass, it is a second brief.

What leaving the desk means

Selects are labelled as the brief named the shots. Grade follows the one-page plan, not a new sentence in the thread. Files go to the address in the brief; we do not post work to a feed.

If you need a recce written into the next job, say so in the same letter as the delivery note. The desk is on Mateevici, weekdays until 18:00.

Book the next street

Send the brief with a date window and whether the job is hall or Chișinău street. We answer with a page.
