Case Study
BUCS Outdoor Athletics Championship — UEL, 2019
Three-day event videography for the BUCS Outdoor Athletics Championships with University of East London athletes — capturing competition, results, and team spirit across the full championship.
Brief
The University of East London commissioned Vivid Squad to cover the BUCS Outdoor Athletics Championships 2019 — a three-day national university athletics event. The brief covered all three days: Day 1 opening races, Day 2 mid-competition results and team moments, and Day 3 finals.
Sports championship coverage requires adapting in real time as the day unfolds — medals, personal bests, and team celebrations that the client and athletes will want to remember. Four videos were produced across three days.
What We Delivered
- Day 1 event highlights video
- Day 2 competition coverage (Parts 1 & 2)
- Day 3 Finals highlights video
- Athlete and team footage across all disciplines
About the Project
Sports event video captures moments that can't be staged — the effort, the competition, the result — and turns a single fixture into promotion that drives engagement and participation. It gives an organisation evidence of the spectacle that statistics cannot convey.
A strong edit gives organisers and partners a promotional asset for social, press, and marketing, communicating the energy and credibility of the event to athletes, supporters, and the wider community.
Across three days, UEL athletes achieved medals, personal bests, and high placements across multiple disciplines. Four videos gave UEL a complete archive of the 2019 championship — performance record, team spirit documentation, and recruitment material for the university's sports programme.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you film athletics and sports competitions in London?
Yes — we cover athletics, competitions, and sporting events across London, capturing action and atmosphere for press, marketing, and social. For the BUCS Outdoor Athletics Championship at UEL we produced sports event video.
Can you cover a multi-day sports championship?
Yes — the BUCS Outdoor Athletics Championships ran across three days and we produced daily video content from each: Day 1 opener, Day 2 competition (two videos), and Day 3 finals. Multi-day coverage requires planning per day and adapting to results and narrative as they develop.
