EVENT CAPTURE & VISUALS

GATHER & GRAZE 2024

Bringing Gather & Graze to Life with Visual Storytelling

Gather & Graze began as a heartfelt gesture to support a friend through a challenging time, it quickly blossomed into an annual charity event that unites the community in celebration and solidarity.

Our team was honored to produce the event visuals, crafting an immersive visual experience that reflected the event’s mission of hope and togetherness. From dynamic motion graphics to striking filmmaking, every element was carefully curated to amplify the event’s message and enhance the atmosphere.

The impact of our visuals extended beyond the screens—they set the tone for the evening, inspired meaningful engagement, and left a lasting impression on attendees. By elevating the visual storytelling, we helped "Gather & Graze" raise both awareness and vital funds for Protea Place - a women’s support shelter based in Toowoomba, QLD.

We’re proud to be a part of such a transformative event and to see our visuals play a role in turning a vision of community support into reality.

How we created this project

This event is very unique and nationally recognised for its generosity. We felt the event could benefit from elevating the quality of its visual marketing content in the lead up to the event as well as the recap content captured throughout the night. The visuals on the night (presented on large LED screens) captured design elements from the styling and decor, and the recap content utilised a lot of a native SFX captured which filming.

Behind the scenes, this project came to life through a seamless blend of creativity and technical precision.

  • Creative Concepting: We collaborated closely with the event organizers to understand their vision and the emotional tone they wanted to convey, ensuring the visuals resonated with the event’s purpose.

  • Custom Motion Graphics: Using tailored animations and custom LED elements we helped the screen content complement the design and styling choices made by the organisers.

  • Event Marketing: We worked closely with the event sponsors to ensure content was produced and made sure they all felt that their donations were money well spent.

  • Recap Content: Our team of 3 captured stills and video of the event to produce announcement content after the event and a gallery of stills of all guests who attended.

  • On-Site Support: Our team was present during the event to oversee the execution, troubleshooting, and live adjustments, guaranteeing everything ran smoothly.

  • Post-Event Reflection: Following the event, we collaborated on analysis to refine future productions, helping Gather & Graze continue to grow in impact year after year.

This project was a true labour of love, and we’re proud to have contributed to the success of such an inspiring event. By combining heartfelt storytelling with cutting-edge visuals, we helped create an experience that attendees will never forget.
