Magic Mountain Productions : making-of images for ENGELHORN SPORTS, JELMOLI and MANOR shoots

December and January have been very busy months for the Magic Mountain Productions team. In addition to several photo shoots, a German home-shopping channel paid a visit to the Cape and the team accepted the challenge of producing their commercials. The project involved lots of pre-productions, research as well as model- and location- scouting.

The arguably most elaborate job in the current season was for ENGELHORN SPORTS. The project features real athletes, who had to showcase their skills in front of the camera. The photographer was Dane Fredrik Clement, AD by Therese Stuessel c/o Serviceplan.

They also worked on a production on Noordhoek Beach for JELMOLL the leading premium Department store in Switzerland, founded in 1883. Eight floors are home to over two million brand products – pretty much all the essentials covered for then.

Miss Switzerland rode bareback on a white horse along the stunning beach, captured on camera by photographer Andreas ORTNER c/o GoSee member A3GENCY, Munich. Art Direction by Benner & Partner.

Basel-based department store MANOR was another fashion client and guest of the Magic Team in December. Photographer Frederic Auerbach was on location and could not resist taking a ride on the backseat of Mark's motorcycle – taking pictures as he raced along.

Magic Mountain Productions is eagerly awaiting the result of the documentary '26 people to save the world', which they produced for an Argentinian TV channel.
