Overview

We were approached by the UWA Student Guild to capture the vibrant energy of UWA O-Day — one of the most exciting days on campus for both new and returning students.

The Guild was looking for two separate highlight videos: one to showcase the bustling daytime activities on James Oval, and another to capture the high-energy atmosphere of the official O-Day After Party at the Tav.

 

Deliverables

2x Highlight Videos

  • The O-Day highlight video focused on welcoming, community-driven energy of UWA’s student culture, designed to appeal to prospective students and promote future O-Days.

  • The O-Day After Party highlight video captured the high-energy, nightlife side of campus life. Held at the Tav, the after party featured a rotating lineup of bands and DJs.

Our Process

Pre-Production

In collaboration with UWA Student Guilld, we developed a clear list of priority content for the event:

  • Coverage of the UWA Student Guild tent

  • Footage of various student clubs and societies interacting with students

  • Crowd shots, giveaways, prize bags, and branded merch

  • Activities and games happening on James Oval

  • Shots of corporate and external partner tents

  • And for the After Party: party scenes, dance floor energy, and candid moments of students enjoying the evening

Our team carefully mapped out a shot list and timeline to ensure coverage across both events.

Production

To keep the visuals dynamic and engaging, we used a mix of shooting styles:

  • 360 camera for unique and immersive angles

  • Timelapse shots to show the scale and flow of the crowd

  • Handheld footage for close-ups and candid student interactions

  • Gimbal shots for smooth movement across tents and activities

This mix allowed us to tell the full story of O-Day — from wide shots of the crowd to the small moments that make the day feel personal and fun.

During the After Party, our focus shifted to capture the atmosphere. Knowing the space would be tight and full of movement, we scaled down our equipment to using just handheld and gimbal shots, This allowed us to move quickly and freely through the crowd without getting in the way of the party.

Post-Production

Both videos were edited as high-energy event highlights, using feel-good music, fast cuts, and dynamic transitions to reflect the excitement of the day and night.

Our goal was to create visually engaging recaps that captured the overall vibe.
