Filmed at Endava’s London headquarters, Episode 07 of the Capital Conversations series brings together industry leaders to explore how AI is transforming the world of asset management. Working alongside Front Ear Productions, Kumo London delivered camera and lighting direction that balanced natural daylight with cinematic polish, capturing both professionalism and warmth in dialogue. The production reflects Kumo’s growing role in delivering intelligent visual content for corporate storytelling and branded interviews across the UK.

STRATEGIC INSIGHT

This project showcases Kumo London’s ability to deliver cinematic interviews in highly controlled corporate environments while maintaining natural daylight realism. Working alongside Front Ear Productions, we designed a two-camera setup using Sony FX3s with Zeiss and G Master lenses, achieving balanced exposure between interior lighting and London’s skyline backdrop.

The lighting plan leveraged natural window light as the key source, complemented by 2x LED panels at ⅛ power with CTO gels, maintaining accurate skin tones against mixed daylight conditions.

Kumo London provided camera operation, lighting direction, and visual guidance, ensuring both clarity and conversational intimacy throughout the interview.
