Ten of the Best 2009
Ten of the Best (TOTB) is a performance road car event, run by Straightliners Ltd and is aimed at finding the best all-round car in 
Europe. Handling, top speed and the 1/4m drag strip are used to determine the outcome.
All the cars that compete in the main road class competition are road legal, taxed, tested and insured. Many of the cars that compete at TOTB are modified, some to the extreme.
Giant Leap were brought in to cut an extended version of the Sky Sports broadcasted pilot and to create an animated DVD with extra features such as POV in-car footage. We were spoilt for choice in terms of bonus material with plenty of super slow-motion footage shot with Sprintcam Live V2 and hours of exhilarating in-car action. We also created a website to promote the DVD complete with an integrated QuickTime trailer.

Officer Kicks
Officer Kicks are one of the hardest working bands around, constantly perfecting an electric live rock’n’roll show and crafting studio records that stand 
up to the greats. 
Accessible and turned off by pretension, the band employ an ethos of inclusion, building a following through relentless touring and a solid online presence since their conception. The video, directed by Stuart Lanceley of Token films was a really interesting project to be involved in. We provided equipment hire for the production as well as Nick Padley in the guise of cinematographer.
Wella Professionals Education Reel
Wella were looking for a slick video presentation tool that would create awareness and excitement around their new WE Education brand. 
It needed to strengthen the new Wella image as well as convey the value they placed in education. It was also imperative that it would assist their sales team. Giant Leap created a three minute video that used a combination of live action footage and eye popping 3D graphics. 
The team relied on a broad knowledge of different software packages to design and track text, edit and colour live show footage and utilised an online preview system that allowed Wella representatives to quickly view progress and suggest any amendments that needed looking at. This allowed us to go from concept to finished product swiftly and made sure Wella got the video they had envisaged back when they commissioned the work. Good times.
Fairy Liquid Clean and Care Flash Campaign
Giant Leap were recently approached to shoot green screen content
for a Fairy Liquid Flash banner campaign. The banner required keyed out footage of 
a model’s hands to be incorporated into a 2D banner that was composited in Adobe Flash for placement on such websites as Glamour, Cosmopolitan and MSN. The footage was filmed in DVCPROHD and edited in Final Cut Pro with keying and grading courtesy of Adobe After Effects. This was then incorporated into a series of graphical layers that had been created using Adobe Photoshop. The project was turned over very quickly due to severe time constraints and resulted in a highly innovative web banner that took animation to the next level through incorporation of cleverly keyed and compressed video content.
A Matter of Time
"A Matter of Time" is the first short film to have been made through the Giant Leap Production short film programme. The 16 minute short was written by Christopher P Taylor and shot in 3 days with an extremely lean crew!
Michael is a wealthy man, with a good job, he’s never been left wanting. However, when he is dealt a cruel blow with news that will tear his world apart, he is left to reflect on the life he has led and the choices he has made.
It’s only in a chance meeting with a young stripper, Jenny Davies that he bizarrely finds somebody that he can confide in, somebody to share in his plight and upon discovering that his life has been built on lies and deceit, with no legacy to leave behind in this world, Michael soon is given a glimmer of hope, a final chance of redemption… but it is this last choice that will define his very existence forever. With the clock ticking, your past will catch up with you in the end, for it’s only a matter of time.
Reebok Street Athletics 2007
Street Athletics is an amazing project now in its fourth year. It has seen thousands of young people taking part in races across the country. Linford Christie and Darren Campbell share the same vision, to break down the significant barriers which prevent youngsters from believing in their own talents and not having the confidence in their futures to set even the smallest
ambitions. Having such big names involved in the project has had a big impact on participation levels and Street Athletics wanted a way to truly inject the presence of such names to their website. They used our green screen video product, Walkonweb in order to integrate a walking, talking Linford Christie on the home page of their website, which would greet visitors as thy landed on their home page. The punchy and charismatic video was streamed in Flash in order to maximise speed and usability of their website and proved to be a big hit. To find out more about Walkonweb click here.
Sheffield Parties Plasma Screen Advertisment
Sheffield Parties represents the Sheffield branch of Cheese on Bread Events Limited, an Events Management company created with sole purpose of providing innovative, unique, pioneering and dynamic events.
They came to us with the desire to create a series of videos that could be played on plasma screens in their nightclub as well as be buffered in web banners for placement on websites such as www.tilllate.com. We created five separate videos that integrated special offers, event details with branded artwork in order to push their brand and increase sales.
I Am Learning Presentation
I am learning supports personalised learning across the curriculum. Their games based approach to motivate and engage students in interactive revision and exam practice, increases a students awareness of themselves as a learner, developing confidence and supporting the consolidation of knowledge. 
When students play games, their scores are recorded and kept on file and attaining higher scores unlocks more games. We designed a video to showcase the groundbreaking work that i am learning is doing in the education market at elearning conferences and various presentations. The video was made up entirely of motion graphics and illustrated the steps that a student would go through when taking part in the programme as well as a taster of the games they would get to play.
Working Together Case Study Interviews
Working Together is a national initiative designed to help the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) and the voluntary and community sector to work together to dramatically increase the amount and quality of training provision available through the sector. 
The Voluntary & Community Sector (VCS) is considered to be uniquely placed to be able to engage those groups furthest from the labour market, such as long term unemployed people, women returners, Black and Ethnic Minority (BME) groups, and people with disabilities. We shot a series of video interviews in order for Voluntary Action Wakefield District to showcase all the great work that was being done by the VCS groups involved in delivering the project.
Technogym MiFit
Technogym is a world leader in the design of fitness equipment for fitness facilities, hotels, spas, rehabilitation centres, corporate gyms, universities, professional sports facilities, private homes and beyond.
Giant Leap were recently approached to help them develop a tutorial video that would provide an overview of their new Wellness System product. We provided a video that incorporated visuals of the product with motion graphics that clearly and concisely outlined the key benefits of the system. The video was also developed in mind of being displayed on the fitness machines themselves in addition to being provided in DVD format and as streaming video. This was a great opportunity to create a multi-platform video for an incredibly well known brand.
Swissvax
Unlike ordinary polishes Swissvax waxes do not contain any abrasives. Swissvax waxes are available for every type of car paint finish. They are equally effective on old laquers as on modern water-based paints. The system consists of 2 components: A cleaning wax oil and a wax. Swissvax is very easy to apply and will not leave any white residue or build up along seams or in crevices.
