Dave × SA Tour

Capture the night the way the room felt it.

Dave's team wanted the tour on social while it was happening: the reactions, the crowd and the performance, posted fast and in a way that felt like being there rather than a polished promo. We live edited throughout, and more than 30 videos were shared within five hours of the performance.

We shot both the Johannesburg and Cape Town shows with two camera operators, one roaming the pit and one in the crowd, then synced the footage with the front-of-house audio so every clip sounded as good as it looked.

• Two camera operators covering the pit and the crowd in both cities
• Reactions and Dave's performance captured in the same set
• Footage synced to front-of-house audio for clean, usable sound
• Live editing on the night, with 30+ videos shared within five hours of the performance
• Short social clips delivered for Instagram and TikTok on the tour's channel

Shot handheld, on purpose.

The performance came first. We were not allowed on stage and could only shoot from the pit and the crowd, with no stabilisation and no Ronin.

So every frame is handheld and every operator kept a low profile. We kept the kit light to stay out of sight and out of the audience's way, which also keeps the footage raw and authentic.

• Pit and crowd only, with no stage access
• Handheld throughout, with no gimbal or stabiliser
• Minimal kit to keep visibility and distraction down
• Two operators moving independently through the venue
