If you are about to stage a musical or a play. Or maybe a noted performer will make an appearance on your stage. Either way, you want to capture the event for those who weren’t there–or for the families of those who participated.Mike Herring Productions specializes in recording theatrical and ive performance videography. We work with numerous theaters, schools and other organizations, and our DVDs are seen by hundreds across the tri-state area.
For the last five years we have been the official videographer for the Beacon Light Miss Gay NJ state pageant. This is a popular event lasting over four hours filmed at the Paramount Theater in Asbury Park, NJ.
It is not often you get a chance to film a one night performance performed on a simple set. We had the chance to film a series of short performances in a club and produced a single DVD to serve as a record of the evening and for sale to audience and friends.
One of the more challenging aspects of Event Videography is that you only get one chance to make the shoot. There is never a full rehearsal and in extreme cases there is nothing more then a rough running guide for the event, and that’s if people follow the plan. Sometimes events are nothing more then a shoot from hell because of all the things that do not go to plan or happen on the spur of the moment.
