Request A Photographic Quote

To complete a quote for your project I will need the following information. Once I have the necessary information I will produce a quote for the project and return it to the email address supplied.

The information that I need to complete your quote is as follows

Client Information:

Project Information:

List Of Images Required:

• For example -
• A medium view of Croydon town centre from the Purley Way Playing Fields.
• A selection of views from the bend on Battersea Church Road looking towards the site.
• A map with site, viewpoints and view direction marked.
• Scoping shots of the views required.

Special Requirements:

• For example -
• Lots of people / few people on the street outside.
• Public transport visible e.g. bus/tram in shot.
• Blue sky in all shots etc.
• Dawn/Dusk images.
• Do the images need to be perspective corrected⁽¹⁾, if so please list which ones.
• Please be aware that the more special requirements listed the longer a shoot will take and therefore a longer lead time to the deadline should be expected.

Deadlines:

• Deadline for image provision:

Image Use:

• Please specify what the images will be used for⁽²⁾ (delete as applicable):
• Only displayed on screen.
• Largest printed output A4, A3, A2, A1.
• CGI photomontage.
• Verified Views / AVR.

⁽¹⁾ - Perspective correction removes the effects of parallax where tall buildings may appear to be falling over backwards or narrowing towards the top, sometimes described as converging verticals or keystoning. If the images are going to be used as verified views or as part of a CGI presentation then best practice dictates that they should be corrected using tilt shift lenses. However some CGI workflows use the effect of parallax to key in the position of the camera.

⁽²⁾ - Why do I need to know what the images are going to be used for?

• If they are only going to be viewed on screen then the post processing workflow changes slightly so as to give a better display on screen.
• The largest output size allows me to create an image at that size rather than require someone further down the production line having to scale up a lower resolution image.
• If the image is going to be used as part of a CGI then contact between myself and the company producing the CGI allows me to check what information and image size they require. This helps to reduce problems and simplify the workflow.
• If the images are going to be Verified views / AVR then communication with the surveyor and working out how to merge our joint workflows will be required.
