Now that we are seeing more productions opening up and shoots starting to push forward people are having to rethink and replan how they will work (including our own creative director JamesC). Packing for a shoot is becoming a more carefully structured process with a lot it requiring you think in terms of what to bring and if you are working on the fly doing shoots on location, minimizing as much as possible for speed and efficiency.
Mykitco has always been ahead of the curve in that respect and has set the benchmark for practicality (with a touch of artistic quirkiness) that allows artists from across the spectrum to work. The latest additions to the Mykitco bag range are a prime example of this and soon to be added to our own working kit in particular the My Mini PVC Pod which for us means we can carry separate kits of brushes built to suit rather than mixed into a general set up it is possible to pack around your needs, (Yes the “spread” looks good but in current working environments it’s not practical).
Putting practicality in motion and packing smart is something that co-founder of Mykitco: James Molloy is really keen and it shows, combined with the business and event savvy of Alex Thompson, you can see the logical process behind the brand as they both understand (from different angles) the need for efficient working kits.
The new bags which consist of My PVC Cube (perfect for skincare and larger items), My PVC Slim (for those miscellaneous items we all have in our working kit), My Mini PVC Pod (a perfect add-on to store brushes for individual talent or those in need of cleaning separately from the rest).
*Special credit should go to the My Body Buddy designed to work in a similar and more practical fashion to the classic set bag or an apron.
More than ever we need to be cognizant of how we work and the practical aspects of the craft.
