As we look back on the year, we’re grateful for every moment that shaped it.

The projects, the people, the stories trusted to us - and the clients who invited us into their spaces to help bring their messages to life. From busy shoot days to quiet edit sessions, each moment played a part in the work we’re proud to share.

Thank you to our clients, and collaborators for the trust and the opportunities. Here’s a small recap of a year we’re truly thankful for.

We’ll be back in office on 7 January 2026.

What exactly is live streaming — and why does it matter for your brand? 🎥✨

Think of it like watching a live TV show, sports match, or concert… delivered straight to your device or platform of your choice in real-time.

It’s immediate, interactive and incredibly engaging, which is why brands are using live streams to connect with audiences anywhere, anytime.

At Light Years Media, we take live streaming from “simple idea” to professional, high-impact broadcast. Here’s how we support your event:
✔️ Broadcast-grade cameras, lighting + crystal-clear audio
✔️ Multiple camera angles, smooth transitions + custom graphics
✔️ Stable, reliable technical setup (no dropped connections!)
✔️ Platform strategy, registration support + analytics
✔️ A dedicated crew so you can focus on your message not the tech

If you want your event to look polished, run smoothly, and reach more people, live streaming is one of the most powerful tools you can use and we’re here to make it stress-free.

Every story we tell is powered by more than creativity - it’s powered by the tools we trust.
Introducing Tools of the Trade, a behind-the-scenes series where we spotlight the gear that helps us bring ideas to life at Light Years Media. These are the unsung heroes that make our workflow smoother, our shoots more efficient, and our final stories even stronger. No sponsorships - just genuine shoutouts to the brands that help us do what we love.

1.) The On Camera Monitor - Our Extra Set of Eyes
🔍 Precision in every frame.
This compact monitor isn't the star of the show, but it’s our secret weapon for nailing focus, exposure, and framing.
We use Atomos because the colour accuracy and brightness hold up in any environment - from dark venues to sunlit shoots. Think waveform scopes, focus peaking, false color, and LUT preview - all so what we're seeing on set is so much closer to what ends up in post.
It helps us work faster and make more informed on-the-spot decisions - ultimately giving our clients sharper, more polished video.

Stay tuned because there's more tools of the trade coming your way.

Stanlib Currency Exchange - Event Highlights 🎥
At Light Years Media, we help brands turn their events into powerful visual assets - and this project for STANLIB is a perfect example.

We captured their Currency Exchange panel discussion: a conversation on strengthening South Africa’s currency and economic future. From expert economist insights to audience Q&A and quick vox-pops with keynote speakers - we captured the experience at Everard Read Gallery and delivered both a polished highlight video and a set of vertical short-form pieces designed for maximum engagement and adaptability.

The final video gives Stanlib:
- A shareable asset for clients, partners, and internal teams
- A strong proof point of thought leadership and event impact
- A polished showcase to support future conferences and panels

Thank you to the STANLIB team for trusting Light Years Media to document such an important conversation.

👉 If you need standout visuals for your next corporate event, panel, or conference, we’d love to create them with you.

We were thrilled to partner with Optix Africa (Optix) for their Future Vision conference, where they showcased their mission to turn data into action and help fleet drivers get home safely.

Our highlight video captures the full energy of the day - from fun, interactive demos to game-changing “aha” moments and big-picture takeaways. It’s more than a recap; it’s a next-level promotional asset that Optix can share with clients and their community to build momentum toward what’s next. At the same time, it amplifies their brand, delivers key messaging, and provides immersive proof of impact.

A big thank you to Optix Africa(Optix) for trusting us with your vision, and to everyone who brought their ideas and passion to the day. HelloYes Marketing

📹 Case Study: Partnership Announcement

We know not every project calls for a big shoot. Sometimes, the right blend of creativity, editing, and resourcefulness is all it takes to deliver impact.

Challenge:
The client needed a budget-friendly yet impactful way to announce their new partnership between Herbst Group, SSD, and Repwise. The video had to feel engaging and professional - without the expense of a full-scale production.

Solution:
Light Years Media crafted a smart, efficient solution:

Scriptwriting & narration to ensure the message was clear and polished.
Stock footage curation to visually match the tone of the partnership.
Editing & colour grading to tie everything together seamlessly.

This approach created a video that balanced affordability with quality storytelling.

Result:
The final video highlighted the synergy between the three companies, clearly communicating their shared vision while keeping the project cost-effective. The client walked away with a professional partnership announcement that could be used across digital platforms with confidence.

High-quality video doesn’t have to break the bank. Let’s find the smart solution for your next project.

Making Info Simple with Animations:

Turning complexity into clarity - that’s what animated explainer videos do best. We created this explainer to break down a complex theory into visuals that are easy to follow and understand.

✨ Whether it’s data, research, or an abstract concept, we can bring your message to life through clear, creative animation.

Case Study – Riverman Music Video

Challenge:
Riverman wanted his music video to tell a human story: four individuals from different South African cultures meet by chance in Cape Town - and walk away with hope in humanity. We had to make those worlds feel connected, impactful, and genuine.

Solution:
Through brainstorming, we crafted four distinct character narratives set across iconic Cape Town backdrops. We focused on a small, sincere moment - a gesture of respect and kindness - to weave their stories together, and captured it with cinematic care.

Result:
The final video celebrates unity and empathy. A visual narrative and a social commentary that there is hope for South Africa. It's emotionally moving and ends on the powerful note: “We’ve got to get there together!”

This project shows how collaboration, care and creativity can transform a concept into a vision that truly connects with it's viewers.

Great stories don’t just happen. They’re crafted. Let’s craft yours?
