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.

Only get one run at it?

How we work

How a job runs, step by step.

Five stages, all handled. You tell us the room and the format. We match the cameras and cut it clean.

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’re 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 isn't automatically better. Each one adds an operator, a set-up and time in the edit. Here's the honest guide.

Set-upGood forWhat you get
One cameraA single piece to camera, a short interviewA clean hero angle, with cutaways to hide edits
Two camerasInterviews, testimonials, small panelsA hero and a profile, so you can cut a long answer down

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.

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.

What do you need from us to quote?

Not much. The room, the format, how long it runs and the date. A few lines is plenty. If something's missing, Jess will call and ask rather than send you a form. You'll hear back within one business day.

How much of my time will this take?

Less than you'd think. A short brief call about the room and the format, a look at the plan, then two rounds of notes on the edit. Jess books the crew and sends the call sheet. You only need to be there if you want to be.

Where we film

Across Sydney and greater NSW.

Based in Sydney, filming across the CBD, North Sydney, Macquarie Park, Parramatta, the Inner West and beyond. We travel across NSW and interstate for the right job.
