Top 5 Events You Should Always Hire a Videographer For

Ever wonder what it’s really like to be a videographer capturing special moments across Edmonton and Alberta? At Focused Energy Productions, we live for the energy, the creativity, and yes — even the occasional chaos — that comes with turning events into lasting memories. Come with us behind the scenes for a day in the life of a professional videographer! 7:00 AM – Gear Check and Coffee Before anything else — coffee! ☕ Then it’s straight to prepping our gear: Cameras and lenses ✅ Microphones ✅ Lighting kits ✅ Backup batteries and SD cards ✅ ✅ Tip: Preparation is key. We double-check every piece of equipment the night before and again in the morning to avoid any surprises on location. 9:00 AM – On the Road to the Venue With everything packed, we hit the road. Whether it’s a wedding in Edmonton, a corporate event downtown, or a birthday party in St. Albert, being early is non-negotiable for us. We like to scout the location and find the best lighting and angles before guests arrive. ✅ Fun fact: Natural light can make or break a shot — we're always hunting for those perfect bright spots! 11:00 AM – Capturing the Setup and Pre-Event Moments Before the real action starts, we capture the small but meaningful details: The venue décor Candid staff preparations First looks and nervous smiles These little moments help tell a complete story later on during the editing process. 1:00 PM – Event in Full Swing Once the event kicks off, it’s game time! We’re constantly moving, switching lenses, adjusting settings, and positioning ourselves without interrupting the flow of the event. Whether it's a keynote speech, a first dance, or guests laughing over cocktails, we aim to capture it all naturally. ✅ Pro tip: A great videographer anticipates moments before they happen, not just reacts to them. 5:00 PM – Wrapping Up and Backup Once we’ve captured all the important footage (and a few bonus surprises), it’s time to back everything up. We immediately save copies of all footage to two separate drives — because when it comes to your memories, there's no room for error. ✅ Important: We also begin rough sorting clips that same night while the event's energy is still fresh in our minds!

When your company hosts a corporate event, a lot of time, planning, and resources go into making it successful. But what happens after the event is over? A professionally produced highlight video can help extend the impact of your event long after the last guest has left. At Focused Energy Productions, we specialize in turning your corporate milestones into memorable visual stories. Here’s why investing in a highlight video is one of the smartest moves your company can make. 1. Showcasing Company Culture Highlight videos are the perfect opportunity to showcase your company's values, energy, and team spirit.
