What is the location of CPO Studios?
Right now, we do not have a dedicated studio location. We shoot most videos and photos on-location, but can also set up a studio setup with lights for green screen work or other backgrounds (black, white, etc). Dedicated location coming in February 2011.

What work should I expect from the music video, video, and commercial services?
I take every step that a professional film crew takes. Preproduction, lights, camera, sound, makeup, music and sound editing, video editing, visual effects, special effects, graphic design, title work, motion graphics, 3D animation. You name it, I’ve got it covered. Prices vary.

What should I expect from the photo services?
I will photograph just about anything you need me to photograph. Just like my video services, I’ve got gear for almost every facet of photography, but I do my printing through Mpix.com. I’ve got lights, lenses, filters, post processing tools, monopod, tripod, etc. I always work on images on the computer after shooting, that comes with all of my photo services.

What kind of gear do you have?
I have a 1080p HD camera that shoots at 30 and 24 frames per second with interchangeable lenses and a DSLR sensor. I have a boom microphone, crane/jib, fluid head tripod, dolly and tracks, a professional light kit, a monopod, shoulder mount, steadicam, underwater housing, and Snorricam chest mount. I shoot my photos and video with Canon L series and EF prime lenses.

What software do you use?
I use Final Cut Studio for editing, sound, and color; After Effects for visual effects, motion graphics, and compositing; Cinema 4D for 3D work; Adobe Photoshop for graphics, some video work, and photo post processing; CompositeLab Pro for green screen keying; and Logic Pro for any music work.

What kind of video services do you offer?
I do any kind of video work that isn’t full event coverage. I only cover events if you just want a well-shot montage set to music. Video work includes, but is not limited to: music videos, short film cinematography, commercials, real estate videos, extreme sports videos, reels for athletes, reels for performers, DVD authoring, etc.

What kind of photography services do you offer?
I can shoot almost anything that needs a camera to shoot it: portrait work, band shots, head shots, sporting events, family events, weddings, gaming events, concerts, Real Estate, product, food, etc. If you need my services for anything involving a camera, contact me in the “Rates and Contact” section and I’ll get you a quote as soon as possible.

What kind of graphic and marketing work can you do?
I can design logos, edit images, create graphics for websites, redesign websites, create advertisements and packaging, motion graphics for videos and commercials, 3D animation as well. Any kind of thing that can be done in Photoshop/Illustrator/After Effects (Photoshop for video, basically).

What kind of events do you cover?
I can photograph any kind of event. I can not offer full length video for long events, just a montage of video from an event. My video services are for films, videos, commercials, and documentary work. Events can be something that lasts all day like a wedding (or even multiple days), to something shorter, like a soccer game. I can shoot video for live concerts.

How does this work?
Just head over to the “Rates and Contact” section. Basically you will send me an e-mail describing your project in detail, any specific challenges that may arise (green screen work, visual effects, etc.), how long it’s going to be, really anything you think would be a factor. The more specific you are, the faster I can get you an accurate quote. If you are representing a band and want to do a music video, I can give you an estimate based on your idea, and a full quote will come after the idea is fully established and ready to shoot.

After the quote, sign some papers and we’ll get to work. 20% is paid before we shoot, and the rest when the final product has been established and is ready to deliver. Payment can be done online through Paypal, personal check, or money order. If you want to pay by credit card or debit card, you will have to do it through Paypal.

Where are you based?
I am based in Norfolk, Virginia on Shore Drive near the ocean. I work from home, where I keep all my studio gear. I can shoot anywhere in the Hampton Roads area, and am available outside Hampton Roads depending on the project.

Who are you and what work do you do?
My name is Conor O’Sullivan, I run the majority of the project I am booked for. I have musicians for video work that requires music, and the entire process is a collaboration between my work and your feedback, more-so with video projects. I work by appointment, focusing on a few projects at a time to insure they get done well and efficiently. I have been making films, taking photographs, and working on the computer since I was 10-years-old, and I don’t plan on stopping. I’ve worked for Blackhawk! Product Group as a photographer, designer, and video crew. My personal portfolio and blog site can be found here if you want to know more about me.
