Instant aftermovie
The last thing people see before they leave should not be a note about parking. It should be their day, the way they lived it. We film and edit while the event is still running, then put it on screen while they are all still there, together.
How most events end
- The last speaker walks off, the house lights come up, people grab their coats and go. The day closes administratively.
- That evening, still full of what they experienced, they have nothing to post. The next day is too late, and a week later it has gone.
- Next edition you start from zero again, with nothing to show the people who weren't there what it was like.
This is not a content problem. These are good days that end badly, because nobody planned the ending.
How it works
We agree the story beforehand
Weeks before the event we set the direction: what kind of film you want, what tone, what has to be in it, who matters to see. The structure exists before filming starts. That is why something with a beginning and an end can be cut on the same day, rather than a string of shots.
We film throughout
Room shots, audience reactions, stage moments, conversations in the breaks, backstage. Our video crew works to the agreed direction, rather than hunting for something to catch.
It is edited in parallel
The editor works during the event, not after. As the day goes on, the footage drops into the structure prepared in advance.
It goes up before the close
It plays in the final minutes, while everyone is still there and still in the state the day left them in. They recognise themselves, look for each other in the shots, laugh when they appear. It is the only moment where you can hand people their own day back, on the day itself.
You get it the same evening
The file is ready to send to the attendee group while people are still talking about what they experienced. Then we refine it and send you the final version.
What you get
- The film screened in the room at the end of the event
- The file, ready to distribute the same evening
- The final version, refined afterwards, ready to post
- Raw footage, if you want it for later edits
FAQ
Because nothing is decided on the spot. The direction, the structure and what has to appear are agreed at the brief, weeks ahead. On the day we film to plan and the footage goes into a structure that already exists. Improvisation is the only thing that would not fit in the time available.
So there is both filming time and parallel editing time. Below two days it shows that it was rushed, and we would rather screen nothing than screen something weak. For one-day events we film as normal and you get the final version directly, within seven days.
Usually between one and three minutes. Long enough to tell the story of the day, short enough not to stretch the ending.
You see it before it goes on screen. If there is something in it you don't want, it comes out. We never screen anything you haven't seen.
