When one camera isn't enough

Some things happen once. A panel, a keynote, an awards moment, a conversation between two people who are only in the same room today. Miss it on one camera and it's gone.

Multi-camera gives the editor somewhere to cut. It hides the pauses, the ums and the questions you don't need, and it turns a long session into something people will actually watch.

What we shoot multi-camera

Panels and fireside chats

A wide on the group and a camera on each speaker. Nobody gets cut off mid-answer.

See conference video →

Keynotes and stage

Wide for context, a long lens for the speaker, and a roamer for the room and the reactions.

Interviews

A hero angle and a profile, so a twenty minute chat cuts down to two minutes that flow.

See testimonial video →

Livestreams

Cameras feeding a switcher, cut live for the stream and recorded clean for the edit after.

See livestreaming →

Podcasts and vodcasts

A camera per seat plus a wide, so a long-form recording becomes clips as well as an episode.

Demonstrations

A wide and a tight on the hands at the same time, for training and product work.

How we work

How a job runs, step by step.

Five stages, all handled. You brief us once and give your feedback. We run the rest.

01 Your part

Brief

Tell us the goal, the audience and the deadline once. Jess turns it into a scope, a plan and a fixed quote, so you know what you are getting before anything is locked in.

  • One clear brief, no back and forth
  • A fixed quote up front, itemised
  • One point of contact, start to finish

How we keep it cutting clean

Multi-camera goes wrong in the edit, not on the day. Two cameras that don't match, or audio that drifts, and you've paid for angles you can't use.

Matched bodies

The same camera family across every angle, set to the same picture profile, so nothing shifts between cuts.

One clock

Cameras and audio synced on the day, so the editor isn't lining up waveforms by eye.

Separate clean audio

Radio mics recorded to their own tracks, not just to camera. One dropout doesn't cost you the answer.

Deliberate framing

Angles chosen so consecutive shots are different enough to cut. Two similar wides is a wasted camera.

Backed up on site

Every card copied to two drives before the kit goes in the van.

Shot to the cutdowns

We shoot knowing you'll want vertical clips as well as the long cut, so the framing leaves room.

How many cameras do you actually need

More cameras is not automatically better. Each one adds an operator, a set-up and time in the edit. Here's the honest guide.

I’m really relaxed. Even at events I’m not at, I’m not worried at all. It’s set and forget.

I had a partner, not a supplier. They were truly part of the team, across a four day, five week event.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

How many cameras do I need for a panel?

Three is the usual answer. A wide on the whole panel, one on whoever is talking, and one for reactions and the audience. Two works for a short panel with two speakers.

Does every camera need its own operator?

Not always. Wide shots are often locked off and left running, which keeps the crew count down. Anything that has to follow a person needs someone on it.

Can you livestream and record at the same time?

Yes. The switcher cuts the stream live while every camera also records its own clean file, so the edit afterwards isn't stuck with the live cut.

Will the footage match if you're a second crew on the job?

Tell us what the lead crew is shooting on and what profile they're using, and we'll match it. Worth sorting a few days out rather than on the morning.

Does multi-camera cost a lot more to edit?

A little, because there's more footage to sync and watch. It usually saves money overall, because you get a far better cut out of one shoot day.
