Farnborough Airshow
Categories: Conference Filming, Corporate Event Filming, Corporate VideographersDoing lots of weddings videos means that when a job comes up than isn’t a wedding video its a real joy! Point in case in a job we did for US company 4C Controls which was launching its satellite mapping business at the Farnborough Airshow. Our videographers David and Matt fielded this particular job which centred on a bunch of presentations. Since we’d agreed to provide highlights of the event for our clients to use on their website, it was obvious to me that we’d need some much visual spectacle before this looked appealing. Consequently David and Matt filmed a stack of material both inside the exhibitions halls and outside which we padded around the speakers. We found some suitable soundbites and added a music track that reflected the dawn of the new company. I think it works well and I am sure 4C Controls was delighted with the job, despite having to remove numerous shots of attendees who for various reasons couldn’t appear on video! Anyone watching this will be thinking Stanley Kubrick like I was when I briefed my editor! See if you agree:

You have managed to capture the spectacle well here!
This would normally be a boring and tedious affair but I was gripped throughout. Very quickly the story of this event comes across and I think it could be screened on TV very easily!
The sound quality is well recorded – no doubt thanks to a well prepared crew who know how to work in the field.
Usually a tell tale sign is bad sound recording and you can tell an inexperienced crew is involved, but not here.
I’d certainly like to see more of this as there are many companies that require good Video production.

A sharply shot and edited video. Eye catching spectacle of the air show.

I can see a Stanley Kubrick influence in this Farnborough Airshow video. Yes, a sharply shot video.
