RAPID RESPONSE & TOTAL TURNKEY PHOTOGRAPHY SUPPORT FOR AN INTERNATIONAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT
PixSync International Editorial Photography Services
In early June 2008, Nautilus Minerals contacted PixSync Photography to have some photographs taken of their exploration ship, the Nor Star. The ship was mobilized at Loyang Offshore Supply Base. The plan was to have some photographs taken of her whilst on anchorage and departure, this all within very short notice.
“There were a number of challenges that we had to face. Firstly, the client was based overseas in Australia and we needed to get the full project requirements and vessel intercept arrangements made before providing a comprehensive quotation. We managed this by offering to provide a suit of supporting services in order to make the photography assignments a success,” shares Terran Tang, Principal Photographer of PixSync. “There were a number of objective that we had to fulfill. Firstly, our team had to be on standby for 2 days, subject to weather conditions. Secondly, we had to help put the quotation together by fully understanding the scope of work. Payment from Nautilus Minerals could then be easily facilitated through PixSync overseas banking facilities. The team at PixSync also provided client pickup and drop off from their office premises and coordinated with the chase vessel, a hydrolift provided by NOL for the intercept at sea. The team set off in the early hours of the morning and reached the Yacht Club promptly at 6am. A number of photos were taken of Nor Star and the team returned back within 3 hours. Before noon, the pictures were processed digitally and uploaded to Australia for our client’s immediate press release, within the space of less than 6 hours from the time of project completion”.
