Filming Peter Jones & Jason Bradbury's 'Head to Head', Friday 15th October 2010


During our day's filming at Dragon Peter Jones' headquarters we set up a black backdrop in the boardroom  and used our three-head Dedo lighting kit to recreate the iconic 'Alas Smith & Jones' head-to-head sketch but this time starring Bradbury & Jones with a gadgety twist...

Setting up the shot.
As part of their online marketing campaign for client eXpansys, of which Peter Jones is a major share holder, Brazen PR came up with the ingenious idea of recreating the classic sketch and we were commissioned to film the scene and script the introduction using 'Does size really matter?' as the inspiration.
Nearly ready to roll...
Jason and Peter were more than game for a laugh as they went head to head to discuss the merits of tablet computing with the Apple Ipad versus the Samsung Galaxy Tab. As tech whizz Jason sparred with the famous Dragon, Peter Jones revealed his passion for geekery and love of Apple products.
Action!
The scene was filmed in just one take and the result was a sparkling dialogue that dipped into hilarious innuendo creating a wonderful viral teaser for their 'head to head', part of eXpansys online marketing campaign.

The completed film is to be premiered at the official launch of Jason's tech talks for eXpansys later this month and posted on YouTube.

Peter and Jason proudly show off their 9.7" and 7" inches.
