Monthly Round-Up

Hello to everyone out there! Todays blog is really just a quick round-up of what has been happening on the website in the last month.

Firstly its been a month since the Autosport International Show at the NEC in Birmingham. Soon after the show had finished Paul Chapman Pictures had created and edited its own short video, showing many of the highlights of the show. Since it was posted on YouTube it has so far been viewed over 1,000 times. The response that this video has created has been far greater than we ever expected. But we thank everyone who has seen it, and if you haven't you can still find it at:

The second bit of fantastic information that we can report is that Paul Chapman Pictures is currently finalising an association with Oxford Brookes University Formula Student Team. This association will include supplying photographic and video coverage to the team. This year the team will be competing in 3 interantional Formula SAE events, the first will be in Detroit - America, the second will be at Silverstone Race Circuit - UK and the last event will be at Hockenheim - Germany. To kick start this association, Paul Chapman Pictures were invited to a recent test session of the Oxford Brookes Formula Student Team. The test session took place at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground. Whilst we were present we were able to capture some exclusive on board footage of their car whilst it was on track. It was fantastic to be able to show the team, through the use of our equipment how the front suspension and wheels were in fact moving around as the race car went around the track.

Luckily for everyone we have also made this video open to the public, and this exciting and unique footage can also be found on YouTube at:

With many more testing session planned in the future for the Oxford Brookes Formula Student Team Paul Chapman Pictures hopes it will be present at as many as possible to be able to capture and share with everyone more exciting footage of a real race car and team in action.

Lastly this month Paul Chapman Pictures has been joined with another motorsport photography website. This time we would like to publicly thank everyone at www.ncrallying.co.uk. Like I said in the previous blog, Paul Chapman Pictures takes every single partnership and association very seriously, and we look forward to creating stronger links with ncrallying.co.uk and Oxford Brookes Formula Student Team in the future.
