Published by Neil ThompsonFirst Sight Media, the production company, announced that July marked the completion of its busiest month ever, as it successfully filmed 365 live events and ceremonies at over 30 separate locations as far apart as Bristol and Carlisle.
With an unwavering commitment to
capturing the essence of each event, First Sight Media ensured the
unforgettable moments of 358 separate graduation ceremonies were preserved for
generations to come. Alongside this, the company also completed the filming of
seven events outside of the university sector - including conferences,
promotional videos and webinars.
“Working with First Sight Media on graduation this year has been invaluable. They’ve helped us in pretty much every aspect of planning and have not only been our AV team but also our production partners. We couldn't have done it without them.”
Sarah Tridgell, events officer at Royal Holloway University of London
This monumental achievement was made possible by the dedication and expertise of its team, supported by 55 skilled freelancers - allowing First Sight Media to sustain their high production values across 19 locations simultaneously, in one week alone.
Managing director of First Sight Media, Rich Belcher, expressed his enthusiasm for the team's outstanding accomplishment, saying, "We are thrilled with the success of this milestone month! Our team has shown incredible dedication and professionalism, working tirelessly to deliver exceptional filming services at 33 distinct graduation locations across the UK, capturing the special moment of well over 75,000 graduates."
The First Sight Media team spent an impressive 395-person days on site, and the company's commitment to excellence and passion for preserving the memories of each presentation culminated in the delivery of exceptional service to both graduates and clients.
The scale of this operation required extensive logistical planning and coordination, all managed by the First Sight Media administration and logistics team.
"Despite the challenges, the First Sight Media team and our fabulous freelancers ensured that every event was executed efficiently. I would especially like to praise the admin and logistics team, without whose expertise and diligence none of this would happen," Belcher concluded.
