Professional Video Production Portfolio

WHA Conference 2025 01:21

For the Water Dispenser & Hydration Association (WHA), Urban Beat Films delivered comprehensive conference and event video coverage, working closely with General Manager Phillipa to plan the filming in advance.

The project began with an online briefing via Microsoft Teams to discuss the running order of the day and identify the key moments that needed to be captured. Our production team arrived at the venue the day before the event to complete setup and carry out a full site survey, allowing time to identify the best camera positions and opportunities for capturing supporting B-roll footage.

In addition to filming the main conference and trade show activity, we were asked to record a series of stand-up interviews with delegates in a dedicated breakout room. For these interviews, we set up a professional filming environment using 4K cameras, three-point lighting, and clip-on lavalier microphones to capture clean, high-quality audio.

Following the event, all footage was taken back to our studio and edited into a polished conference and trade show video, complete with accompanying interviews. The finished content was optimised for use on the client’s website and across online and social media platforms.

Hybrid Event 2025 0:16

In October 2025, Urban Beat Films was commissioned to film and live stream the Spirit of Manchester Awards at the Sheridan Centre in Manchester. Working closely with the event organisers, Manchester Community Central, we carried out a site visit in advance to plan the technical and production requirements for the evening.

This preparation is vital when delivering a live hybrid event video, allowing us to identify and resolve any potential technical challenges ahead of time. By securing a stable, hard-wired internet connection, we were able to set up our multi-camera system and streaming controls well before the event began.

The awards also featured a live online voting system, enabling remote viewers to take part in the evening by casting votes for the community services they felt deserved recognition. The event ran smoothly throughout, and the client commented that it was the slickest production setup they had experienced in over ten years of running the awards.

Live Event Video 1:09

At Urban Beat Films, we specialise in live music videography and event video production, capturing performances with energy, clarity, and cinematic quality.

For this project, we filmed the dynamic live show by Oh My God It’s The Church, a high energy gospel inspired act performing to a packed and enthusiastic audience. Our goal was to authentically capture the atmosphere and excitement of a live concert experience.

To achieve this, we used a multi-camera setup, combining static cameras with a roving handheld camera. This approach allowed us to film from multiple perspectives including on stage footage, crowd interaction, and close-up performance moments creating an immersive viewing experience that puts audiences right in the heart of the show.

For professional sound quality, we recorded a direct stereo audio feed from the venue’s sound desk, ensuring crystal-clear audio that was fully synchronised with the video footage. This results in a rich, immersive sound experience that matches the visual energy of the performance.

After filming, all content was brought back to our studio for professional video editing, colour grading, and post-production. The final result is a polished, broadcast-quality live music video, suitable for promotion, social media, and artist marketing.
