Hell’s Kitchen: Season 3

creativisionla — Sat, 09 Jun 2007 00:47:01 +0000

As construction coordinator on "Hell’s Kitchen", Shane Middleton, president of Creativision LA, led and supervised a diversified crew of talented individuals to produce such a realistic set that even in HD, viewers all over the country believe is an actual restaurant and separate contestant living quarters. In reality, all components of the show from the huge kitchen area to the 2-storied restaurant space including spiral staircase, massive chandelier, bar with unique fish tank to Chef Ramsay’s office, outdoor patio and hot tub, as well as all living quarters were created on a sound stage. Through every step of the planning and install, Shane kept his team ahead of schedule, on budget and maintained the same standard of excellence and quality that Creativision LA has made their signature mark.

Studio/Custom Green Screen

creativisionla — Fri, 08 Jun 2007 22:26:20 +0000

Our mission: design and build a neutral, modern and beautiful set constructed of 5 foot X 16 foot tall panels that can easily be taken apart and reconfigured to create new, fresh looks for different production needs.

How we accomplished the mission: We assisted this client in making their dreams of running a studio facility become a reality in less than one month. This went from a completely raw space (as you can see below) to a fully designed and built, easily adaptable, repaintable, reskinable set, as well as a castered cyc wall that meets their specific shooting needs. In addition, the Creativision LA team assisted in several other aspects of the build out; from sourcing sound proofing materials, to assisting in the decoration of the makeup/wardrobe/star and green rooms.

Exercise TV

If we are talking about High Definition, then we know that every single detail counts; there is no room for error because the camera reads absolutely everything.

This is why Creativision LA was selected to design and build the Exercise TV "Star Trainers" set. Once our client told us that that their vision was to reflect the Propel Fitness Water brand (which was among the major product sponsors), we knew exactly what they were looking for: clean, crisp, modern. They wanted to display large photos of the trainers, which we recommended be black and white to pose a stark contrast to the bright, glowing set and create a gallery-esque feeling.

Creativision LA selected every detail down to the vinyl logo that we applied to the flooring. We built large steel frames and wrapped them in a high-end lighting/projection fabric that was lit from behind with color gels. In addition, we selected the white mar light flooring for a unique, glossy and almost icy appearance. The producer of the shoot, the president of Exercise TV, the marketing director for Propel and also the marketing director for New Balance (another product sponsor) were thrilled with the end results and of course, so were we.

Denise Austin’s Core Workout

Tovah — Thu, 16 Mar 2006 01:54:18 +0000

Energy. Excitement. Structure. Gym. These keywords and eight hours is what we were given to turn the "pregnancy workout" set (seen below) into a completely different, entirely modern gym-feeling structure. These photographs demonstrate how we rose to meet the challenge and exceeded even our own expectations.

Denise Austin’s Pregnancy Workout

Tovah — Thu, 16 Mar 2006 01:33:14 +0000

Knowing that we would only be given one day to install this large Mediterranean-style set for Denise Austin’s Pregnancy workout video, our team pre-constructed, assembled and painted it in advance. Then, the entire structure was neatly organized, labelled, broken down and delivered to the stage by truck the day of the install and simply reassmebled and touched-up. The paint technique was purposely selected by Creativision LA in order to accomodate the clients needs for a quick change-over into another set with a completely different feel.

ESL-English as a Second Language

Tovah — Mon, 06 Feb 2006 17:46:00 +0000

This set was designed to accomodate a long shooting schedule for a 10-box dvd collection as well as many actors. The producer wanted to capture the essence of a classroom but with the feel of someone’s home-a comfortable, familiar space that could double as a learning area. We accomplished this vision by leaving the set very open, giving the viewer shots of windows, a seating area, a hallway, as well as a kitchen. Fresh flowers and beautiful, warm colors and accents truly created the atmosphere the client was after.

Beverly Hills Hotel-Christmas Party

Tovah — Tue, 07 Feb 2006 01:35:37 +0000

This set was created at the Beverly Hills Hotel for a major company christmas party. These decorative wooden cases were custom designed and built to house speakers for the party. Below: A plain wall is transformed into a beautiful, classic christmas seating area, including stockings, candles, ginger bread and even a fire so realistic that guests could enjoy the cozy atmosphere.

Contemporary Chair

The designers concept for this modern piece was to create the visual illusion of an axed section of wood. We figured out how to translate the concept into this one-of-a-kind gorgeous, functional and comfortable chair. By selecting a deep colored edge-grain veneer and through special attention to mitering and precision cuts, the Creativision LA team was able to make this vision become a sleek reality. The cushions on the seat and back were custom fabricated to contrast with the frame in a rich umber for a more retro look.
