Hanover Pictures were approached to produce two promos for Portsmouth based band "Torpedoes". "Twisted Love Song" and their brand new song fresh from the studio, "Jesusphobia". "Torpedoes" list their influences as Pixies, Dammed, Hendrix, Metallica to the Cardiacs.

Technical specs:
The shoot took place on Saturday 21st June 2009 at Vision Studios in Portishead, near Bristol. For "Twisted Love Song" a blacked out studio environment was chosen with the band performing surrounded by small orange 300w bulbs and a 2.5 HMI keying from the right through a large 216 diffusion frame. The set was dressed to look more like a studio environment with extra cables and props. To convey the energy of the song a 360 degree dolly was brought in to circle the band slowly getting faster and faster till the end. A camera crane was ultilised capturing shots swinging around the studio and in and out of the band.

For the edit a colour grade was applied adding a film grain to the image as well as a film flicker and sprocket effect giving the look of being shot on old film and sometimes having the film be mis-threaded in the camera.
