Powered by Fame OS

Three tools your last videographer didn't have.

Most crews hand over a drive and a link. Every Fame Crew shoot runs on our own software, so you can see what is happening before the shoot, find any clip after it, and approve edits without a single email thread.

  1. 01

    Footage Log

    Every clip from the shoot, organised and labelled, with the whole log searchable - and every clip transcribed, so you can find the moment someone said the thing by typing what they said. No scrubbing through hours of rushes.

  2. 02

    Shoot Status

    One page per shoot showing exactly where things stand: crew confirmed, brief signed off, kit list, call time, payment status. You never have to email to ask what is happening.

    See a live example →
  3. 03

    Asset Review Tool

    Review every edit in the browser and leave comments pinned to the exact second. No download, no version confusion, no thread of timecodes pasted into email.

    Try the review tool →

All three come with every shoot. There is nothing to set up and nothing extra to pay.

How It Works

Our growth-focused team of global event video ninjas will guide you through the following process:

  1. 1

    The Brief 📝Tell us where, when, and what. Whether it’s a keynote in London, a panel in New York, or a client testimonial in Singapore, we’ve got boots on the ground.

  2. 2

    The Shoot 🎥A Fame-vetted videographer arrives on site. They don't just stand there; they understand B2B angles, audio hygiene, and how to capture content that converts.

  3. 3

    The Assets 🚀We don't just dump raw files on you (unless you want us to). We deliver polished, brand-ready assets within 48 hours so you can promote the event while the buzz is still fresh.

Happy Clients

Jemma Stevens Client Partner

"Amazing 😀 Will definitely keep you in mind for upcoming shoots, would love to work together again!"

We worked with Jemma to capture content for a number of events in Los Angeles surrounding a new product launch. Our crew member Angelou and his assistant covered all events, capturing compelling video and epic photos to ensure the impact of the campaign lasts long past the end of the event. The result? Epic content for an epic business.
