Corporate events
A corporate event is usually held for staff, clients or partners, and the film has to serve people who were not in the room. We start by asking who will watch the finished piece and what they should feel or do afterwards. That decides whether the coverage leans towards speakers, guests, venue atmosphere or a mix. We film the programme as it runs, record the speeches cleanly and capture the small moments between sessions that make a company look like itself.
The quote depends on the length of the event, the number of rooms, the crew and cameras, any interviews and the edit versions you want, such as a short recap for the intranet and a longer record for the archive. Send us the running order and the venue, and we will plan around them.
Conferences
Conference filming is mostly about reliable coverage of talks across more than one room. We plan camera positions with the venue team, agree how sound will be taken from the house system and decide which sessions need full recording and which only need highlights. Speakers, panels and audience reactions are covered so an edit can move between them without losing the thread.
The quote reflects the number of rooms and sessions, the crew and cameras, the sound arrangements, the length of the programme and whether you want full session recordings, speaker clips or a single recap film. If a talk will be reused later, tell us at the start so we capture it for that purpose. Share the agenda, and we will mark the sessions that matter most.
Exhibitions and trade shows
Exhibitions reward a crew that can move. The floor is busy, the stands compete for attention and the best footage is often a short conversation or a product moment that lasts seconds. We plan which stands, speakers and interviews to prioritise before the doors open, then work the floor to that plan while watching for the unexpected. Our World Travel Market 2025 and iGB L!VE films, both made at ExCeL London, are examples of this approach.
Cost depends on the number of show days and hours, the crew, the footage you need, the venue rules for set-up and filming, and the edit versions, which might include a highlight film, social clips and stand reels. Send the show details and tell us what the footage must do.
Awards and galas
An awards night is a sequence of fixed moments: the arrival, the dinner, the speeches, the announcements and the reactions of winners. Getting them means knowing the running order in advance and putting cameras where the moments will happen. We plan coverage with your production team and the venue so we can film without blocking guests or the stage. Short winner interviews can be arranged where the schedule allows.
The quote depends on the number of cameras, the length of the evening, the crew, the lighting at the venue and whether you want a highlights film, individual winner clips or a recording of the whole ceremony. If you want something shared on the night itself, say so early, because that changes the plan. Send us the run sheet when you have it.
Festivals
A festival spreads across stages, grounds and several days, so the first question is which parts of it the film has to show. We discuss the programme with the organiser and choose between following the headline acts, the crowd, the food and craft areas or the atmosphere of the site as a whole. Working outdoors means planning around weather, power and access on a site that changes through the day.
The quote reflects the number of days, the size of the site, the number of crew and cameras, the performance and crowd permissions needed, and the edit versions, such as a main film, a short promotional teaser for next year and clips for each stage. Tell us what the festival wants people to remember, and we will plan the coverage around that.
Concerts and gigs
Filming a live performance means respecting the artist, the sound and the room. We agree camera positions with the venue and the act before the show, so we capture the stage from several angles without getting in the way of the audience. Low light and moving performers need careful planning. We can film for a recorded set, a promotional highlight or social clips, and the right choice depends on what the artist and the venue want to do with the footage.
The quote depends on the length of the set, the number of cameras and crew, the audio arrangements, the permissions for filming the audience and the edit versions requested. Tell us who is performing, where and when, and whether the artist has a say in how the footage is used.
Parties and private events
Private events are personal, so the crew has to be unobtrusive and good with people. We talk with the host beforehand about who should be filmed, who should not and which moments matter, such as speeches, toasts or the arrival of key guests. Then we film candidly, staying out of the way and letting the event happen. Anniversaries, milestone birthdays and company celebrations can all be covered this way.
The quote depends on how long you want us there, how many people are filming and what you want afterwards, whether that is a short film for family and friends or a longer record of the whole evening. Share the venue, the guest list size and the shape of the day, and we will suggest a plan that fits.
Sports events
Sport happens fast and does not repeat, so coverage has to be planned around where the action will be. We work with the organisers to learn the format, the timings and the places where cameras can safely stand. Participants, supporters and officials all play a part in the story, and we decide in advance how much attention each gets. Matches, races, tournaments and charity sporting days all call for slightly different coverage.
The quote depends on the length of the event, the area it covers, the number of cameras and crew, the access agreed with organisers and the edit versions you want, such as a highlights film, athlete profiles or social clips. Tell us the sport, the venue and who will use the footage, and we will tell you how we would cover it.
Charity events and fundraisers
Charities use event films to thank supporters and to inspire the next round of giving, so the film needs to carry feeling as well as information. We talk to the team about the cause, the people involved and the moment the audience should remember. During the event we film the atmosphere, the speeches and the people who make the day work, including volunteers and guests. We handle consent for filming carefully, especially where beneficiaries or young people are present.
The quote depends on the length of the event, the crew and cameras, the amount of interview time, and whether you want one short film for fundraising or several pieces for different channels. Tell us the purpose of the event and where the film will be shown, and we will plan accordingly.
Product launch events
A launch event is a performance for a room and for the people who will see it later. We film both. In the room, we cover the reveal, the presentation and the reactions. Afterwards, the footage can be cut into a launch film, short clips for social media and material for the press. Planning starts with the timeline of the event and the exact moment the product appears, since that moment cannot be repeated. We coordinate with your staging and AV team on camera positions, lighting and sound.
The quote depends on the length of the event, the number of cameras, the crew, any live elements, and the number of edited versions. If you also need a separate advert for the product, we can quote that as its own piece. Send us the schedule for the day.
Fashion shows
A fashion show is short, intense and visual. The runway lasts minutes, and the work around it matters as much, including the fittings, the backstage preparation and the front row. We plan camera positions with the show producer so the runway is covered from the front and from the side without blocking the audience. Lighting at fashion events is often dramatic, which affects how we set up. Then we decide whether to include behind-the-scenes coverage, designer interviews or guest arrivals.
The quote depends on the number of looks and shows, the cameras and crew, the access backstage, the length of the edit and whether you need runway clips quickly for social media. Send us the show schedule and the venue, and tell us whether the designer or the brand will approve the final edit.
Esports and gaming events
Gaming events have two audiences: the people in the venue and the people watching online. A film for a tournament or convention has to show the crowd, the stage and the players while respecting the broadcast production that may already be running. We start by finding out what the organiser already has, such as an official stream, and then fill the gaps with atmosphere, fan reactions, player moments and venue scenes. Where a live stream is part of the brief, we plan that separately.
The quote depends on the number of days, the crew and cameras, the access to players and backstage areas, the permissions for filming attendees and the edit versions, such as a recap film or clips for the event channels. Tell us the format of the event and what the organiser already covers.
Live streaming
Streaming an event means the audience sees the cameras work in real time, so planning and testing carry more weight than for a recorded film. We agree the programme, the platform, the camera positions, the sound feeds and who is responsible for each part before the day. A rehearsal is worth including when speakers join remotely or when presentations contain video. The internet connection at the venue must be discussed in advance and tested.
The quote depends on the length of the programme, the number of cameras and crew, the technical integration with the venue, the platform and any recording you want to keep. We do not describe any connection as failure-proof, and we agree what happens if something goes wrong. Send the running order and the platform you plan to use.
Hybrid and virtual events
A hybrid event has two audiences that must both feel included: the people in the room and the people on screen. That calls for coverage that gives the remote audience a good view of the stage and a way to take part, while the room sees a normal event. We plan how remote speakers will appear, how questions will reach the stage and who looks after the online audience. A fully virtual event may be filmed in a venue or studio set-up with speakers brought in remotely, and we plan that around your platform.
The quote depends on the length of the programme, the number of cameras and crew, the remote contributions, the technical set-up and the recording you want afterwards. Tell us how many speakers will join remotely and which platform you use, and we will set out the plan.
Same-day edits
A same-day edit is a short film made while the event is still running or soon after it ends, so the organiser can show it on screens or share it online. It needs an editor working alongside the camera crew, a clear idea of what the edit should contain and a fast way to approve it. Because the deadline is fixed, the plan has to agree what the film will include before the event starts. We confirm what is realistic for each event rather than promising it in general, since the answer depends on the venue, the amount of footage and the approval route.
The quote depends on the length of the event, the number of cameras, the crew including the editor, the length of the edit and the platforms it must reach. Tell us the time the film must be ready and who signs it off.
Multi-camera filming
Several cameras let an edit move between wide shots, close shots and reactions, which makes a talk or a performance feel more alive. The cost is planning: each camera needs a position, an operator or a remote arrangement and a way for the pictures to line up in the edit. We decide with you how many angles the event deserves. A single speaker may need two. A stage with a panel and an audience may need more. Sound is planned alongside, because several good pictures need one clean audio source.
The quote depends on the number of cameras, the crew, the length of the event, the venue access and the edit. We can add or remove angles to meet a budget, and we explain what is lost when we do. Share the stage layout and the programme, and we will propose a camera plan.
Seminars and webinars
Seminars and webinars are about clear delivery of information. The film has to make the speaker, the slides and the questions easy to follow, whether the audience was in the room or online. We agree how slides will be captured, whether they appear in the picture or are edited in, and how audience questions will be heard. Good sound matters more than anything else here, so we plan the audio carefully with the venue. A recording can be edited into a full session, a shorter summary or clips for a learning platform.
The quote depends on the length of the session, the number of sessions, the crew and cameras, the sound set-up and the edit versions. Tell us how the recording will be used, and whether the session is live, so we plan the right workflow.
Theatre and performance
Filming a stage performance means working with the production rather than around it. We start by talking to the company or venue about what the recording is for, whether that is an archive, a promotional piece or a full recording of the show. Then we plan camera positions, agree what can be filmed during a live performance and decide whether to use a dedicated filming performance or a rehearsal. Lighting changes constantly on stage, so the crew follows the plan closely.
The quote depends on the length of the work, the number of cameras and crew, the number of performances filmed, the rights and permissions for the material and the edit versions. Tell us who owns the rights to the production and who has to approve the footage, because that affects what we can deliver.
Comedy
Comedy depends on timing and on the audience, so the film has to catch both. We position cameras to show the performer clearly and to capture the laughter in the room, usually with a wide shot and a close shot working together. Sound is critical, because a joke that cannot be heard does not work on playback. We agree with the performer or promoter what will be filmed, whether it is a full set, a short promotional clip or an evening with several acts.
The quote depends on the length of the show, the number of cameras and crew, the audio arrangements, the permissions to film the audience and the edit versions. Tell us the performer, the venue and what the footage will be used for, and let us know whether the performer needs to approve the final edit.
