Producing video content at Al Wasl Plaza—the iconic heart of Expo City—requires absolute technical perfection and innovative creative solutions. For the immersive
Holiguard Fire show, our company handled the entire video production cycle, providing the complete creative and technical crew.
A major challenge of this project was not only capturing the massive performance but also engineering the live video feed that was projected in real-time directly onto the giant Al Wasl dome, seamlessly blending live action with the audience's immersive experience.
Technical Execution & Scope:- 12-Camera Fleet: We built a complex multi-angle architecture, deploying a camera dolly for smooth, cinematic tracking shots and a steadicam to capture the raw energy of the dancers up close.
- Aerial Cinematography: To showcase the sheer scale of the event, we utilized 2 drones, including a specialized FPV drone that delivered breathtaking, high-speed dynamic fly-throughs.
- EVS Highlight System: We integrated an industry-standard EVS server, utilizing it not for traditional instant replays, but as a powerful workstation for rapidly cutting and compiling spectacular slow-motion highlight reels of the dancers' choreography on the fly.
- ISO Recording: The massive data output from all 12 cameras was simultaneously recorded in isolated multi-track (ISO) format at high resolution for advanced post-production.
The result was a technologically advanced and visually stunning production where live cinematography and curated highlights became an integral part of the dome's projection mapping environment.
