Live Event Filming

Print

vIT has a great deal of experience of filming live events such as seminars and conferences. Naturally there will be some equipment that isn’t usually at these kind of events (cameras, microphones etc.) but these are relatively unobtrusive and we’ll do our best to position ourselves out of the way.

Occasionally we can use natural lighting or lighting provided at the venue but if lighting conditions are unusable then we will use one, two or three stand mounted fluorescent lights. These remain cool in use and are not too bright to distract the speaker or the audience, or diminish any projected images on a screen, but they are very important for ensuring a decent end result.

Typically we employ a two camera setup, with one camera fixed on the speaker and the other either catching the speaker at a different angle or recording audience reaction. Audio feeds may be taken from your mixing desk or may be provided by us in the form of wired or wireless microphones.

For practical and safety reasons, live event filming requires a crew of two people unless it is a very small gathering, in which case one person may be sufficient.

For studio based productions, vIT has facilities just ten minutes off the end of the M3 in the beautiful New Forest, with views overlooking the Isle of Wight.

The studios are well suited to shooting interviews, presentations, video blogs and stills photography, as well as for recording voiceovers and podcasts.

vIT is as comfortable filming on location as we are in the studio, whether it's at your offices, your customer's or anywhere else.

That goes for overseas as well as UK-based productions. We're able to send a small crew (usually no more than two people) and equipment anywhere in the world without the need for local hire or expensive shipping costs. Years of 'indie' filming experience has taught us how to keep costs down when shooting overseas without compromising the quality of the production.

To date, we've produced films all over the UK and Europe, the USA, Africa and Latin America.
