Multi-Camera.
Pro-Audio.
Affordable.
We are the first video production company in the UK to use ONLY iPhone and the iOS platform to shoot and produce live-stream and social video. Is this a big deal, you may ask? Yes, it is.... and here's why...
We wanted to develop a video production system that focussed on three key areas: Quality, mobility and affordability. Our key differentiator - the fact that we ONLY use iPhones - is enabled by technology that's only been available a short time. Prior to that, the only option open to business of all sizes was large cameras, sometimes big production crew and, with both of those, comes a cost that a lot of businesses simply couldn't afford. Add in to the equation that big kit requires big transport and, well, we thought we could do better... so we did!
We can produce video in resolutions from 720HD (for live video, this is the maximum Facebook allows) and for as-live and pre-recorded, we can shoot in 1080 and even 4K if you want it! We add in on-screen branding, titles, trailers, graphics, b-roll video, music if you want it, and, of course make sure the audio is spot on - and when you bring it all together, we have the 'quality' covered.
Using iPhones for cameras means space needed to carry them around is minimal. Our entire production system has been designed to be ultra mobile: In most instances, every item we need to come and shoot a video on your premises - including cameras, connectivity, audio, lighting, stands, batteries and accessories - will fit in one bag. Everything we need to shoot a 9 camera, multi-room event, fits in two cases in the boot of car and set up time is as little as 15 minutes. Mobility - done.
By making the kit ultra-mobile, we can travel light: Plane, train or car - no problem - it's much cheaper to transport our case than it is a lorry of kit! By investing in remote controlled camera technology, we need fewer people than is typical of production companies: Most small to medium shoots will only need one person, for example - it makes it more affordable if we don't need a team. Finally, the way we produce videos is vital to the whole system - the software that enables us to bring all the cameras, branding, and audio together runs on an iPad and we use the same system to record video AND stream live...and if you want to do both at the same time - you can. This saves edit time and man power and therefore makes the whole process more affordable. Affordability - done.
The investment we've made in technology means it's now possible for you to go live OR record a video with branded, multi-camera, pro-audio output at a price you can afford. There isn't a single business that couldn't benefit from what we do

• Preparing for an upcoming online interview?
• Only have your mobile phone to use?
Despite common misconceptions, using a phone to communicate through video can be just as effective, professional and of sound quality as using another form of recording technology.
It’s the way you use it that makes all the difference! 🤳
Here’s our top 6 tips on using mobile phones to conduct on-camera interviews in your next online event:
1️⃣ Keep steady
You don’t want your footage to be blurry or chaotic so make sure you keep your mobile phone steady. Think about utilising tools such as a tripod or stabiliser to rest your phone and keep it still whilst recording.
2️⃣ High-quality audio
Set yourself up in a quiet place where you won’t be distrubed to minimise unwanted background noise and stay as close to the audio source on your phone as possible. Consider getting an external microphone for even better audio quality.
3️⃣ Screen orientation is your BFF
Always choose to record in a landscape orientation as opposed to vertically. A horizontal orientation enables you to get more on screen and looks more aesthetically pleasing.
4️⃣ Face framing
Play around with face framing beforehand and ensure that roughly 10% of the total video screen is made up of your headshot.
5️⃣ Good lighting is key
Try and record in brightly lit areas as poor lighting is the number one killer of video quality. However ensure your phone isn’t positioned directly at a bright light source otherwise overexposure or lens flaring may occur.
6️⃣ Keep to the rule of thirds
Most phones enable a grid option so ensure you keep it switched on to ensure you make note of the amount of space above and below the headspace of your subject’s head.

A few weeks ago, we were delighted to be asked to go and film this activation for Paul Black at London Convention Bureau.
In partnership with Streem’s CEO Dominic Compagnone and Neil Thompson from The Delegate Wranglers, London Convention Bureau travelled around the city to explore just a few of London’s fantastic hybrid venues.
We learnt what is possible with hybrid events speaking to various venue experts, how to adapt your budget to incorporate more technology into your event, and why London is well placed to welcome back your live attendees.
👏🏼 A huge thanks to Tobacco Dock Venue LTD, Barbican centre, CCT Venues, IET London: Savoy Place and Church House Westminster for hosting us in a highly safe and secure manner and sharing your expertise with us.
👏🏼 Secondly, a big thanks to the brilliant contributions of Charlotte Smart, Jenny Waller, Graeme Massey, FREC, Caroline Bull, James Russ, Tom Bennett, Marina Papadopoulou, Bradley Hill, Elana Kruger MIH.
🎬 And lastly, a well-deserved thank you to Edward Bantock who edited this activation film, shot solely on iPhone.
For anyone exploring hybrid, this is a must watch. We hope you enjoy it!

The most important thing to remember however, is that not all online platforms provide the same results.
It’s easy to call any business event happening online a ‘webcast’ or ‘virtual event’ but they are in fact very different events that require different types of technology.
So what exactly is the difference between a virtual event, a webcast and an online meeting?
👀 Virtual Events
Typically multi-session and highly interactive online events that provide an immersive experience for larger audiences over the web rather than in-person.
🎥 Webcasts
A one-way media presentation using streaming technology to present a single source of content to large audiences. This is essentially ‘broadcasting’ on the web which can be either live or pre-recorded (on-demand).
🖥️ Online Meetings
Enabling individuals to connect and participate in meetings from remote locations, anywhere in the world. These are essentially live two-way video and audio sessions to small - medium-sized audiences.
As we all head into lockdown #2, many of us will be flexing our options of delivering digital event solutions so the hunt for the best technology to deliver the results we’re after is on.
Need some advice or guidance on how to get started? We’re a bank of knowledge and only too happy to share so get in touch on 01424 300310 and we’d be happy to have a chinwag about how we can help you and your business. 📞
