What I Delivered

  • Edited photo selection, same day
  • 90-second aftermovie (in the edit)
  • Six interview clips for social, subtitled, in the project’s branding (in the edit)

The photos are out. The aftermovie and the interview clips are being cut now and will be added to this page once they’re published.

Why This Piece Matters

One operator, photo and video

One operator, photo and video at the same time. I covered the sessions and networking for the photo set and the aftermovie, and filmed six interviews in a lit corner in the main room during the breaks. The edited photo selection went out the same evening.

The cut, agreed in the room

For the edit, I’m working through the interview soundbites with the team at their office before delivery, so what goes into the aftermovie and the social clips is agreed on the spot rather than over three rounds of email. It’s an option I offer when the client is in Brussels.
