Local Solutions. Global Reach. That’s JAMS’s motto!
Previously known as Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, JAMS successfully resolves and manages business and legal disputes. They provide efficient, cost-effective and impartial ways of overcoming barriers at any stage of conflict. They also offer customized dispute resolution services on a local and global level through industry-specific experience, first-class client service, top-notch facilities and highly trained panelists.
JAMS recently updated a few promotional videos with their mediators and neutrals. Who did they call on? Ghostbusters! (Just kidding) They called on our Chicago DP, Kyle Kaiser, who headed up to their Chicago office to help set up the interviews.
The shoot took place in a conference room that had a large window for a wall. To help combat the natural light that was pouring into the room, Kyle used a Canon C300 camera and keyed the interviewees with an HMI. Once the subjects were lit, he diffused the lighting so it didn’t appear so harshly on camera.
In between each interview, the crew took down their A-Cam (which was the C300) and switched to a Sony a7S. The a7S was used specifically to shoot b-roll of the interview subjects speaking with other JAMS staff members. B-roll of the team walking down the hall and holding a mock mediation were also captured.
Thank you so much to JAMS for letting our Chicago camera crew take part in the filming of your promotional videos! We look forward to working with you again in the future.
