Calypso Restaurant Jing An Shangri-La - 静安香格里拉Calypso地中海餐厅

Calypso Restaurant Shangri-La

A couple of months ago, Jing An Shangri-La opened it's new Mediterranean restaurant, Calypso. We were of course present to capture the event. Throughout the night there was a great variety of guests, lots of free food and drinks, and overall we got a good introduction to their newest dining concept which is located in a beautiful pavilion outside of the actual hotel.

The challenge with this shoot was the fact that the whole restaurant is mostly one big room, and as the time passed, there were only so many things to shoot. To control the situation a bit more,  we shot tight details and faces, blending that with a couple timelapses and steadicam shots to keep it dynamic.

After the opening, Calypso has gone on to getting great reviews and now serving a packed house everyday. One of our favorite tidbits about the new restaurant is the stone pizza oven handpicked and brought in from Italy and can make a pizza in well under a minute (~40 seconds). We recommend you to try Calypso for yourself!

不久前，静安香格里拉大酒店隆重揭幕了位于静安嘉里中心Calypso地中海餐厅。 我们很荣幸地又一次受邀拍下这精彩的开幕活动。一整晚，有各式各样的客人莅临，Calypso也免费招待许多美食以及酒水。且整体而言，我们也为其餐厅美丽的玻璃顶棚建筑外观，坐落在酒店旁的周围环境以及他们别具一格的餐饮概念做了一个很好的介绍。

拍摄这段影片的最大挑战就是整个餐厅就像是一个超大型房间，随着时间过去，我们的画面开始逐渐相似，为了尽量避免类似重复画面出现，我们开始着手拍摄更多关于细节和人物的表情，并且采取间隔拍摄手法以及使用摄影机稳定器，从而能平稳地完成移动画面，达到更好的视觉效果。

开幕庆典结束之后Calypso获得热烈回响，络绎不绝的人潮几乎天天爆满。餐厅里面我们最喜欢的是一个远赴意大利挑选引进的正规石质比萨烤炉，能在将近一分钟内将比萨烤好。除了口味地道的比萨，还有更多的浓浓地中海风情的美食等着您亲自一一品尝！
