Arnocorps

Last month I was honoured to be given the chance to shoot the Ballsy Heroic Studs of Arnocorps during their London leg of their recent UK tour.

To describe what Arnocorps are all about is a tough task... only because they do it so much better than anybody else ever could.
So I'll let them explain themselves.

Initially, one might perceive ArnoCorps as merely a group of six highly trained militant Austrian action-rock heroes. Big mistake. The motivation behind the band is far too complex to be defined by such superficial characteristics. Inspired by the ancient heroic lore and mythology of the Austrian Alpine communities, the content of ArnoCorps music carries on their homeland's sacred tradition of tel
ling stories of great deeds and fantastic adventures through song. As such, the band has been singularly responsible for restoring integrity to the many Austrian tales that have been bastardized for cinematic exploitation throughout their lifetimes. 




Thats right, we're in Ahnoldt Schwarzenegger territory now. And these guys Live It.
Their accents and mannerisms never drop. Theyt have great tunes. Great memory for classic one liners and even encourage body building to go on while they play.

These guys are legendary.

I shot the entire show, but due to a few mistakes made during the set, the band asked me to keep it under wraps and just put together a promo instead, which I have happily done.
Its a shame though, as the full show was incredible and my edit for it was pretty impressive too, clocking in at just under an hour with lots of cuts and different shots, all in sync and with good clear sound.

Anyway, it was still good work, even if it stays in the vault.

Hope you enjoy the promo.
