Love Supreme
WE’ve helped europe’s biggest outdoor jazz festival love supreme deliver IMPECCABLE imagery that connect with their audiences for years.
One of our very favourite festivals to capture, Love Supreme, set in the hills of Lewes on the South Coast, has the strength of our service offering delivering content across the whole event weekend.
the challenge.
The festival space is a challenging place to be and the need to get cut-through is more important than ever.
Neapolitan Music and U-Live - the producers behind Love Supreme - needed a new approach to their visual content that showcased the talent across multiple days, stages and spaces.
Offering a raft of engaging features, vendors, activations and sponsors alongside a strong performance programme, it was crucial that content matched the desired audiences and put viewers in the moments. The festival needed a team which could capture all the varying aspects of show days and bring them into a single unified creative vision. Whether it was the food, the yoga or the headliner, it needed to feel Love Supreme.
Our experience in the live event ecosystem meant we knew the common overarching challenges Love Supreme faced and knew we needed to put responsiveness and agility at the forefront of what we’d do.
HOW WE MADE IT WORK.
Over the course of working together, we’ve grown how we work with the Love Supreme festival team by recognising what the pain points were for them, and finding solutions. Meeting the challenges, we:-

Made plans and removed stress through solid pre-production that takes the pain away from the festival team and gets everyone ready for shoot days

Set ourselves up to be responsive to the ever-changing environment of a major event. We designed the team and put communication in place so we could stay agile
Empowered the team to find those special moments and make our best work by giving them the freedom to play within a structure that supported them and the needs of the event

“I’ve worked with Alex and his team for a number of years across our events, from single stage shows like Nocturne to large scale multi-stage festivals like Love supreme and KITE. Working with the team has always been a delight - they’re really clear about their briefs, provide Art Direction which reflects the vision I have and takes it in a new creative direction I might not have thought of.
There’s just a level of trust in clarity and timing of communication that allows you not to worry. ”
