Porsche 911 Automotive Project
The shoot brought together three Porsche models for a production designed to showcase both the vehicles and the capabilities of Kinetics Studios' SPECTRA Lightbox.
The vehicles featured were:
Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years Edition
Porsche 911 S/T
Porsche Taycan Turbo
For an automotive production at this level, controlling the environment is critical. Reflections, highlights and shadows can dramatically change the appearance of a vehicle, making professional lighting and a suitable studio environment essential.
The Infinity Cove with SPECTRA provided the space and lighting control required to capture the vehicles consistently and showcase their design from multiple angles.
Why the Porsche Shoot Used Kinetics Studios
Automotive photography and video present challenges that simply aren't present with many other types of production.
A vehicle has large reflective surfaces, curved bodywork and highly finished paintwork. Every light source, reflection and shadow can affect the final image.
SPECTRA was designed to give production teams an exceptional level of control over these elements.
As the UK's largest suspended lightbox, SPECTRA provides full-spectrum colour control and flicker-free lighting across the Infinity Cove, giving photographers and filmmakers the ability to create precise and repeatable lighting conditions.
For a shoot featuring multiple high-value vehicles, this level of control can make a significant difference to both the creative result and the efficiency of the production.
Three Porsche Icons, One Production Studio
The production brought three very different Porsche models into the same controlled environment.
The Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years Edition provided a celebration of one of Porsche's most recognisable performance models, while the 911 S/T brought a highly exclusive, driver-focused interpretation of the 911.
The Taycan Turbo provided a completely different visual proposition as a high-performance electric vehicle.
Having all three vehicles available within the same production environment allowed the team to create a consistent visual style across the shoot.
SPECTRA Lightbox for Automotive Photography and Video
SPECTRA is particularly well suited to automotive photography and video because it gives production teams greater direction over how light interacts with the vehicle.
The suspended lightbox can create large, controlled reflections across bodywork, helping photographers and filmmakers highlight the shape and details of the vehicle.
For automotive brands, manufacturers, agencies and production companies, this can remove many of the variables associated with shooting vehicles on location.
The result is a governed environment where the lighting can be adjusted around the vehicle and the creative requirements of the production.
More Than Just a Car Photography Studio
The Infinity Cove provides substantial floor space for vehicles, cameras, lighting equipment and production crews, while drive-in access makes bringing vehicles into the studio practical.
The wider facility also includes additional studio environments, allowing productions to create different looks or capture additional content without moving to another location.
This makes Kinetics suitable for automotive advertising, manufacturer campaigns, vehicle launches, social content, editorial photography and commercial video production.
Creating More Content from One Automotive Shoot
A production involving vehicles of this calibre represents a significant investment in time, people and equipment.
Getting more content from the same production can therefore provide considerable value.
Alongside the main video, an automotive shoot can produce photography, social media edits, behind-the-scenes content, product detail shots and additional campaign assets.
With a professional studio environment and multiple spaces available at Kinetics, production teams can plan these additional assets into the same shoot rather than arranging separate productions later.
That means more usable content from the same vehicles, crew and studio booking.
