Flywheel Festival 2016

Our event style videography is a popular choice in our home town with the Bournemouth Wheels Festival and Bournemouth Air Festival. In 2016 and for the first time, Plato Video is now working beyond its home territory. At the end of April we worked at the Donington Historic Festival in the East Midlands and captured the action and surrounds of the event, and now we're gearing up for our debut at the Flywheel Festival at Bicester Heritage in Oxfordshire. 

Throughout the weekend of the 2nd and 3rd July, Flywheel will be entertaining crowds with vintage thrills and displays including all things motoring, military machines and air displays from some classic aircraft. Full details at www.flywheelfestival.com

We can't wait to get started and share our highlights footage! 

Bournemouth Wheels Festival 2016

We’ve just completed our 3rd year working at the fantastic Bournemouth Wheels Festival. As official videographers we get to see every inch of the show from the small displays and collection of car clubs to the actioned packed thrills to be found in the monster truck arena and up on the demonstration straight where Paul Swift returned with his tribute to The Italian Job. 

We were on site for the 3 days of the festival’s duration. We’ve never tracked the mileage we clock up by foot but would be fascinated to know. It must be several miles between us. 

Now complete with several hours worth of footage, we’re almost done compiling our highlights montage which we’ll have up to share very soon! 

Festival Success for Plato Video

Bournemouth based video production company, Plato Video, has added two new festivals to its event portfolio for 2016, building on the success of producing the official highlights videos of both the Bournemouth Wheels Festival and Bournemouth Air Festival.

The Donington Historic Festival in the East Midlands and the Flywheel Festival in Oxfordshire are the latest events to have commissioned Charles & Harry Fynn from Plato Video to produce their official video content.

Richard Grafton of Historic Promotions, organisers of the Donington and Flywheel events said “We’re delighted to have Plato Video on board with us this year after seeing their festival video production work in Bournemouth. We’re very much looking forward to working with them.”

Charles Fynn of Plato Video said “It’s an exciting opportunity for us to bring our unique event style videography to Donington and Flywheel. We’re thrilled to be involved and can’t wait to show off the results!”

The Donington Historic Festival runs from Saturday 30th April until Monday 2nd May 2016 and the Flywheel Festival operates on Saturday 2nd July and Sunday 3rd July 2016. Both are ticketed events. 

Press Release - Dragon Awards Video Firm

Plato Video, a Bournemouth based video production company, has collected an award from entrepreneur and Dragon’s Den star, Theo Paphitis.

Charles and Harry Fynn of the family owned video firm, travelled to the International Convention Centre in Birmingham to accept the award at the #SBS Event 2016, which was held on 12th February.

The event was a culmination of the retail magnate’s regular Small Business Sunday (#SBS) event on Twitter, where every Sunday he invites small businesses to tweet him between 5pm and 7.30pm with a description of their business within the 140 character limit, which must include the important hashtag #SBS.

The following Monday, Mr Paphitis reviews the entries from across the country and selects his favourite six to retweet to his near 500,000 followers.

Plato Video’s (@PlatoVideo) successful entry was retweeted in June of last year, with the business since enjoying plenty of perks from joining the #SBS winners community, including an invitation to the official winners event in Birmingham.

Charles Fynn described the day as “a truly inspirational event for small businesses”.

“Not only did we have the opportunity to meet Theo personally but the event he organised and hosted was fantastic. We networked with like minded businesses and gained invaluable insights and advice from the Question Time panel that was arranged. Anyone with a small business should give #SBS a try”.

Plato Video captures and produces a variety of video content including promotional corporate videos and event highlight montages, with Harry Fynn offering his own contemporary and vintage style wedding videography as part of the business.
