I was asked last week to photograph John Godber's new play 'The Debt Collectors' at the New Vic Theatre, Staffordshire.
I love shooting theatre as, like weddings, there is a real adrenalin in shooting something that is happening live in front of you with no way to stop it or get a second chance at the shot. I have to anticipate what's going to happen and get in position to achieve the shot I want.
Try to catch the show as it tours the country - dates here - it's a brave two-hander from two excellent actors.
Great images Andrew, looks like a lot of fun shooting performances?
ReplyDeleteIt's fun but a bit nerve wracking as you have no control over the light (plus scenes can be played in virtual darkness sometimes) - but highly recommended for two hours of pure concentration and focus on composition.
