Wedding live at She-Oak Grove Centennial Park Sydney

In December 2021, an Indian wedding live stream was successfully done at She-Oak Grove Centennial Park.

It was a challenging project as the weather was pretty bad for days prior to the wedding. My client made a decision to go ahead with the original plan few hours prior to the ceremony commenced, I believe it’s one of the best decisions they ever made in their lifetime.

Owing to the cloudy weather forecast a gazebo was set up by the couple’s friends to cover my broadcast gear just in case of drizzling, a big thank you to them, with their kindness the live stream was running smoothly.

Apart from live streaming the ceremony, this assignment also included wedding videography and photography, I can’t thank you enough to my team for their great effort.

Last but not least, here’s what the client’s feedback,

“Thanks so much Sunny for you and your team's amazing work yesterday. The live stream came out so well and everyone watching remotely loved it!“

Wedding live stream at The Crypt St Mary's Cathedral Sydney

We were thrilled to perform the first wedding live stream after the final lockdown here in Sydney.

The wedding was taken place at The Crypt St Mary’s Cathedral, one of most beautiful venues I’ve ever been to. Likewise, I scouted the location two weeks before to check the strength of 4G reception, and work out the ideal position of our cameras and live stream gears.

One of the challenges was that the 4G reception in The Crypt was not sufficient enough for YouTube live stream. Therefore we had two options to resolve the issue,

1. setting up the production desk right outside The Crypt so to get the best 4G signal, however this could create another issue of the wireless video signal from the cameras could not transmitted through the thick and big stones

2. put the 4G modem outside, and run a long cable to the production desk inside.

After discussion with the venue manager, we went for option 2.

On the day we arrived two hours before the ceremony commenced to set up. Two professionals worked on the day, one managed the cameras and the other monitored the entired live stream. However one thing we found that was the echo effect of The Crypt which made us difficult to get the audio clean and clear, to resolve the issue, we attached our wireless microphones to the lectern, the groom, and the Father who hosted the ceremony. It worked perfectly.

We were pleased that things went smoothly and the broadcast went live 20 minutes prior to the bride walking down the aisle. More than 60 people joined the live to witness this beautiful wedding.

We look forward to a fantastic 2022

We did it!!!! After months of lockdown few times since early 2020, finally we got our freedom back, I have no words to describe how I feel now.

Without a doubt, the lockdown has a big impact to the wedding industry for almost two years, but it has come to the end now. We are very pleased to inform that we look forward to work with all clients that booked us in late 2021 and 2022. Our team is fully vaccinated and will do whatever we can to protect ourselves and who we will meet.

Since all covid restrictions of wedding are lifted, we are glad that we have been receiving enquiries of our live stream services and wedding videography packages in the last couple of weeks. Owing to some confirmed weddings of 2021 were postponed to 2022, we regret to inform that the number of weekends available in 2022 are limited. To avoid disappointment, please do not hesitate to give us a shout about the date you need us, we will get back to you as quick as we can.

Looking forward to be a part of your special day.

Wedding live stream in 2022

I hope everyone has been safe and healthy during New South Wales lockdown.

As New South Wales will soon achieve 70% vaccination rate, I believe wedding restrictions will be eased by the end of 2021 and we can have more freedom and back into our business. My guess is that the number of guests in weddings would be limited initially and might take months to lift all restrictions; on the other hand, the border would also take months to open to interstates and foreign countries, should your guests may not attend due to Covid restrictions, wedding live stream would be a good investment to get your family and friends to virtually participate your special day.

We are ready to work with you and be a part of your wedding. All our team members will be fully vaccinated by October this year. We still have spots for wedding videography and live stream in 2022, please do not hesitate to contact us for booking.

I look forward to working with you.

Stay safe!!

Online Marketing Video Productions Sydney - Sparkling Dental (Part 1)

Another online marketing video project was completed in mid 2020.

This was a very interesting marketing campaign for Sparkling Dental in Neutral Bay Sydney. My client would like to have a make-up done to their website and replaced all multimedia contents. At the initial stage, few consultations were conducted with the client so to understand their business and what they would like to achieve from the videos, and I also gave them briefs of what can be done. Consultations play an important part of every marketing project, after few discussions we came up with a campaign of producing six online videos, one about the overall services offered and 5 about the special dental services.

Today I would like to talk about the challenges of making the main marketing video.

One of the challenges of this production was time. Filming involved two Saturdays when there’s no patient appointments and every single staff available. The schedule of every shot was also well planned so each staff could come just right before their performance. It was also our privilege to have a family patients to be our talents, who only had two hours for us to get every single shots done. As said, owing to the tight timeframe, a shot list was created in advance so myself and the Director of Photography (DOP) could set up and get the shots done without any delay.

Another challenge was taking interview for each staff, we aimed to get every speech naturally in front of the camera and captured takes as less as possible, therefore we used a teleprompter for each staff, so they did not need to memorise scripts.

More to tell about this project, such as behind the scene and the approach, story telling etc…stay tuned.

The outcome was fantastic and most importantly my client was very happy about my work. Here’s the final video.
