We’re thrilled to have been part of the capture of the spectacular 75th Anniversary Military Tattoo for Livewire Pictures. Filmed at Edinburgh Castle, and with over 800 performers on the parade, it was a production on a truly epic scale and an amazing event to be part of.
From the massed military bands to the intricate ceremonial sequences, there was a lot of action to cover, and so we provided 13 cameras, including 4 Sony FR7 PTZ cameras, to capture unique angles that would otherwise not have been possible. OB Skye parked on the steep road next to the castle - the perfect size and power of truck for this kind of capture, recording via 2 EVS’s direct to servers for quick turnaround to the edit.
Thanks to all at the Tattoo for making us so welcome, and as always, great to work alongside our friends at Spiritland, who expertly covered the complex audio capture.
It was a celebration of heritage, discipline and creativity - and a reminder of what’s possible when world-class talent, collaboration and production come together.
Watch it on BBC 1 tonight at 20:00.
