Westchester Country Club's Centennial Video Presentation

The Westchester Country Club in Rye, NY, is a regional, family-oriented club that has existed since 1922. Founded by John McEntee Bowman, it has served as a place of fun and relaxation for decades.

We were approached by the club's Communications Manager, who inquired about the possibility of making a documentary-style video. It would consist of B-roll of the grounds, archival videos and photos, and past and present interviews with longtime members.

After gathering the requisite assets and information in pre-production, the team scheduled two days to film everything needed. The footage was shot in 4K and LOG profile, maximizing dynamic range in color correction. Lavalier microphones were used to focus the audio on the club members.

The post-production team went right to work. The footage was laid out and divided into segments using Adobe Premiere Pro. The audio was leveled to reduce the varying volumes of natural speech, and the video was color corrected to a more dynamic style.

Working with the Westchester Country Club team was a pleasure — they were accommodating and collaborative.
