Field Trips (Shure x Bonafide Content)

Editor / Co-Producer - Adobe Premiere

Half Rice / Half Chips edited and co-produced this award-winning series for Bonafide magazine in partnership with Shure UK.

Field Trips won the prestigious Best of the Best award at the London Brand Film Festival in 2018; topping a shortlist of work from VICE, Channel 4, and The Economist.

For Episode 1, we invited beatmaker Paul White to one of the UK’s most mysterious locations, The Maunsell Sea Forts.

The sounds and rhythms Paul recorded were then converted into audio samples and two original tracks were created within the soundtrack for the film.

In Ep 2 we eschewed the serenity of the sea for the crunch, grease and chaos of a day at the bangers.

Aldershot Raceway was the location and our new volunteer was Ninja Tunes own Ryan Hunn, aka Illum Sphere– an artist with plenty of studio experience but not too much in the field by his own admission.

Once again, we handed our subject a Shure MOTIV MV88 and set him the task of finding as much sonic treasure as he could.  This time to a backdrop of cars smashing into each other.
