Capturing the magic of Sydney’s biggest light festival

The problem Two precincts, one festival, no time Darling Harbour and The Rocks both had to look irresistible while the festival was still running.
What we did Shot and cut inside the event Fast-turnaround films per precinct: handheld and gimbal, vibrant edits, immersive sound, built for FOMO.
The outcome Recaps that worked as invitations Posted natively to each precinct’s accounts while the festival was still trending.

The challenge

  • Name: Vivid Sydney (Darling Harbour & The Rocks precincts)
  • Industry: Events & Tourism
  • Platform: Instagram & Facebook

Vivid Sydney is one of the most iconic festivals in Australia, drawing millions of visitors each year. Our brief was to showcase the energy and magic of the festival in two key precincts — Darling Harbour and The Rocks — with videos that would engage online audiences and boost awareness in real-time.

What we did

We created multiple fast-turnaround, high-impact videos tailored to each precinct. These videos highlighted light installations, crowd reactions, and the overall atmosphere, using a mix of handheld and gimbal footage, vibrant editing, and immersive sound design. The goal was to give people serious FOMO and drive foot traffic.

We shot and delivered content during the event to keep it relevant and trending. By focusing on storytelling and emotion — the “wow” factor of the installations, the joy of attendees, and the energy of the crowd — we made the videos more than just recaps. We made them invitations. Posting natively to each precinct’s social accounts helped maximise engagement.
