Approach

(How you planned, edited, and delivered the project.)
Include:

• Pre-production / brief alignment:

  • Reviewed event schedule, branding, and key deliverables with the client.

  • Identified priority elements to include (e.g. speeches, winners’ reactions, sponsor visibility).

• Filming (if applicable):

  • Coordinated with multiple camera operators to ensure coverage of stage, audience, and ambience.

  • Captured both cinematic crowd shots and candid moments to create a genuine, lively tone.

• Editing approach:

  • Focused on creating a fast-paced, polished highlights reel (typically 1–3 minutes).

  • Structured the edit to build energy — from arrivals and networking to awards and celebration.

  • Selected upbeat, modern music to match the event’s professional yet celebratory feel.

  • Used on-brand motion graphics and title cards for category names, sponsor logos, or award winners.

  • Balanced sound bites or host dialogue with visual montage for narrative flow.

• Tone & pacing:

  • Professional, upbeat, and aspirational.

  • Maintained consistent brand colour and event identity through editing choices.

• Collaboration:

  • Worked with the client’s marketing or events team to refine the edit for promotional use.

  • Delivered social media cutdowns or alternate versions if required.

📘 Example:
Our goal was to create an edit that felt both prestigious and high-energy. By combining crowd interaction, winner reactions, and cinematic B-roll of the venue, we crafted a highlight film that captured the excitement of the evening and the pride of those involved.

Result
