Construction Art

It's interesting to note that more and more organisations are interested in buying our photography, especially the iconic city shots, to 'blow up' and frame for their offices...

It's more than showing off to their clients their successful projects, it's more than creating an inspiring workspace.

These are a few of the construction photos from our new Spencer Street Station folio (Southern Cross Station) shot last week. Evoking curiosity and emotion; they're serious power shots, have great symmetry and pure colour.

Who's ever seen machinery look this good?

We call it construction art.

Multimedia in the limelight

It's interesting how your niche finds you, rather than the other way around as so many marketing texts and experts proclaim, 'Positioning... it's all about positioning!'

We think it's actually reversed, you become positioned.

A lot of you have now viewed our DVD produced for the National Geographic Channel in May.

Thanks to your feedback, we've gone out on a limb and are in the middle of producing a series which will be available for sale in retail outlets across the state. We're keeping the details under wraps for a little longer.

In the meantime these are a sneak preview of some of the superb new pics that will be animated in our new series. Can you guess their location?

PS. It's all about risk and hard work... of course! On the flipside it seems the rewards will be great ;)

The world is moving faster

The world is definitely moving faster and getting smaller for us here at the BISON studio.

We now are a united front, working with two of the most talented creatives. Introducing Ben (our new musical director) and Darcey (chief animator).

Welcome to the BISON UNITED team!

Last month we joined the AIBC (
Australia India Business Council), chatted online to our creative friends in Canada, got IT advice from North Carolina and were on Global Consciousness.

What has this got to do with photography and multimedia you may ask?!?

We're reaching for the next rung, drawing in likeminded people and just starting to realise the internet is not about searching but building global communities.

Our dream of a virtual office is slowly taking shape ;)

The wait was worth it...


Absolutely gorgeous.

Oliver has had one of the most challenging photography commissions yet... Last month we were asked to produce a koala folio for one of Australia's leading tourism operators.

Having researched the 'koala photography scene', we now know why the same photo has been used by EVERYONE for the past 20 years.

Let me fill you in on a secret... koala's sleep for 20-22 hours a day, that's why it's so hard to capture them on film animated. So for all of you wildlife enthusiasts, we challenge you to send us a few koala photos!

These three pics are the results of hours of patiently waiting, and waiting.

The wait was worth it.

Interested in helping save our koalas? Consider supporting the greta work the Australian Koala Foundation do (our link is left)... foster a koala.

Thanks to this program, koalas in captivity are now able to help save their cousins in the wild. For as little as $20 a month you can foster a koala and in doing so help to save Australia’s wild koala population.

They also have a great section on what you can do in a practical way to help preserve our precious planet.
