With a humble two-camera beginning at Kassia's bellydance hafla, we've grown into a full-time production company specializing in post-edited and live-streamed multi-camera productions for:
- stage events (dance, musicals, theatre, concerts, etc.)
- life events (weddings, bar mitzvahs, parties, etc.)
- corporate events (presentations, galas, etc)
- promotions (commercials, training & instructional
videos, promo reels, etc.)
- film production (planning, shooting, resource acquisition, post-production, etc.)
- life biographies (living legacies) using existing content (photographs, movies, etc) or a more personal and interactive interviewing approach
Started by founder "Red-Rob" Rothkopf, Candlelight Productions, LLC collaborates with a team of like-minded experts who hold their quality-bar high. Whenever possible, shoot with multiple cameras, otherwise we're retelling events in just 1 dimension
- Sound matters! If it doesn't sound good.. it ain't good
- Collaborate Creatively. Most of our clients are VERY creative.. keep an open mind, work together, and understand what is wanted and needed.
- Play! Stay engaged with the subject matter, and shoot passionately. What you put in, is what you get out, and this will show in the work. HAVE FUN.
- Edit Appropriately. We are storytellers, retelling life, or retelling visions (in the case of original creation). Good editing enhances and makes for a compelling retelling. Bad production will alter the event, and the intent. This is particularly true with theatre and dance productions where preservation of choreography is key, while audiences also want to be entertained, see faces and get in close for technique.
- Trust the crew, and understand each person's strengths
As CP grows its connections, we intend on dispelling all fears about multi-camera productions, whether they be about affordability, suitability, artistic preservation, whatever. And we look forward to the continued journey, meeting and collaborating with more of the AMAZING, Talented, Creative people who keep crossing paths...
because afterall... Life.
