Video
When working with the Canterbury Festival team, we knew any video we created needed to reflect their dedication and enthusiasm to bringing the community together through festival events.
Taking place over a month, in venues throughout Canterbury, it was important to capture the broad variety of activities, showcase the world class locations and feature the energy of audiences. This resulted in a show reel that truly highlights the diversity and vibrancy of the Canterbury Festival.
We were delighted to work with the Kent Union team to capture the rich variety, atmosphere and energy of Canterbury Festival. After an initial meeting to map out our needs, the team drew up a timetable to cover an array of events across Kent’s two-week International Arts Festival.
Each artist had their own specific ruleset, some only providing a 3-minute window to capture the footage needed. Combined with low light and the need to keep audience disruption to a minimum, it's a challenging task. However Shannon was professional, discreet and a delight to work with.
The final product looks fantastic and combines our desire to have a film that focuses on not just the artists, but also our audiences and participants, to truly translate the unique experience the Festival offers.
