Scott Brash is one of the most decorated show jumpers in the world. The only rider ever to hold all five major Grand Prix titles simultaneously, his record in the sport is virtually unmatched. When he decided to launch an equestrian training app, he brought us in to handle the production.
The brief was seventy instructional videos, a library of content covering every aspect of Scott's training methodology, filmed at his yard and delivered within a tight timeframe. We were shooting four to five videos per day across three weeks with a four-camera setup. Each instructional piece ran to around an hour of raw recording, which meant the data management alone was a significant undertaking.
With three weeks of footage from four cameras to produce seventy deliverables, the post-production pipeline has to be planned as carefully as the shoot itself. The entire project, from first shoot day to final sign-off, was delivered within six weeks.
Thankfully the weather held throughout, which on an outdoor equestrian shoot over three weeks in the UK is not something to take for granted. The horses had other ideas on occasion, but that's the nature of working with animals.
The result is a comprehensive, professional content library that sits at the heart of Scott's training platform.
Yes. Large volume projects require a production pipeline that's as carefully planned as any individual shoot. Scheduling, data management, consistency of look across every piece of content, and a post-production workflow that can handle the throughput, all needs to be in place before the camera rolls. We've delivered projects running to dozens of individual pieces and know what's involved in making them run smoothly.
Yes, and we do so regularly. We’ve worked with globally recognised athletes, presenters, and c-suite executives across a range of sectors. We understand that world, and we know how to operate within it. Time is invariably the biggest constraint as high-profile people have limited availability, so making the most of every minute on set is something we plan for long before the shoot day arrives.
Yes, training and instructional content is a specific discipline as the priority is clarity, consistency, and making sure the subject matter is communicated in a way that's genuinely understandable to the viewer.
Yes. When the content lends itself to it, a multi-camera setup is the most efficient way to capture a significant volume of material, particularly for instructional or interview-led work where coverage and consistency matter. We plan the camera setup around the brief and manage the additional data and post-production complexity that comes with it.
