UNIT STILL PHOTOGRAPHY

Production-aware unit still and behind-the-scenes photography for film, television, advertising and branded productions. Post Studio creates strong publicity images and an authentic visual record of the people, craft and atmosphere behind the work — without disrupting the set.

STILLS THAT SERVE THE PRODUCTION

A unit still photographer works inside the rhythm of a live production. With a background shaped by photography and film sets, Ilya understands the need to share limited space with directors, actors, camera, sound, lighting and art departments. Coverage can include key scenes, cast portraits, crew at work, wardrobe, props, locations, empty sets and the production details needed by publicity, PR, sales and distribution teams.

HOW WE WORK

Before filming, we confirm access, priority scenes, confidentiality, usage and delivery requirements. On set, the approach is quiet, observant and adaptable, with careful attention to continuity, sound and restricted movement. Selected photographs are edited consistently, backed up and supplied in high-resolution and web-ready formats for press, marketing, social content, production archives and future key art.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the difference between unit stills and BTS photography?

Unit stills closely represent scenes and performances for publicity. BTS photography reveals the crew, equipment and process behind the production.

Can you work quietly during filming?

Yes. The working method is built around film-set etiquette: minimal movement, quiet equipment, awareness of sound and lighting, and close coordination with the assistant director and production departments. The aim is to be present when the image happens and otherwise remain invisible.

Do you travel for productions?

Yes. Post Studio is Brisbane-based and available for location work across Australia and internationally.
