Our lifelong affiliation with music and the performing arts constantly inspires us to produce the best dance and theatre show videos possible. We work closely behind the scenes with the co-ordinators, show producers and teachers so that we are completely aware of every aspect of the show.

• We attend rehearsals
• We strategically locate cameras and microphones
• We liaise with choreographers and teaching staff
• We record crisp and clear footage
• We capture and portray the mood and theme
• We focus on the dance routine
• We never miss a shot
• We never use less than two cameras
  

Then, we put our experience and creative skills to good use, editing out pauses, breaks and other unnecessary material. The audio is then edited, mixed and balanced to remove unwanted theatre noise then finally encoded into Dolby Digital Stereo to ensure a crystal clear soundtrack. To complete the production, Hollywood style rolling credits listing all cast and teachers is added. The final master is then encoded to DVD with scene selection and chapter menu before final duplication.

As a rule whenever possible a minimum of 3 cameras and 4 microphones can be used for live stage productions:

• Camera 1 – Zoomed long shot from the rear of theatre
• Camera 2 – Front of stage for close-ups & mood shots
• Camera 3 – Fixed long shot

Camera 3 is uncut and unedited, and can be used as a reference by the school for choreography and educational purposes.
