London is home to some of the most iconic event venues, and when we were invited to film the Abbey Road Institute Global Graduation, Shootlab knew it was an opportunity to bring our expertise in event filming in London to an extraordinary setting. The event took place at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, and it was a privilege to document such a significant milestone for the graduates.
Held on June 12th in the iconic Studio One at Abbey Road, the ceremony brought together graduates, friends, and family from six international schools, including Miami, Paris, Sydney, Amsterdam, London, and Johannesburg.
A Special Event at a Legendary London Venue
Abbey Road Studios is a venue that needs no introduction—its history in the world of music is unparalleled. Filming an event here adds an extra layer of responsibility, not only to the graduates but also to the iconic location. As experts in event filming in London, we took this challenge head-on, ensuring that the footage captured both the grandeur of the venue and the significance of the ceremony.
Studio One where the actual event took place is renowned as the world's largest purpose-built recording studio and has been the birthplace of legendary recordings by artists like Noel Gallagher, Little Simz, and Harry Styles. It has also hosted acclaimed film scores such as The Lord of The Rings trilogy and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The venue provided a fitting backdrop for a ceremony that marks the beginning of promising careers in the music industry.
Highlights of the Ceremony
The evening commenced with a heartfelt address from Abbey Road Institute CEO, Luca Barassi:
"Each one of you has worked incredibly hard to be here today. You have embarked on a journey of many challenges, growth, and creative development. We are here to recognise this accomplishment, to celebrate your achievement, and to welcome you to the professional music industry. What you did is not easy, and we are very proud of you."
A special moment of the night was the recognition of Lester Smith, Abbey Road's esteemed microphone custodian, who is retiring after over 50 years of service. His invaluable contributions were acknowledged with a special award presented by none other than Sir Paul McCartney.
Shootlab's Role in Filming the Event
Our videographer team at Shootlab were on hand to capture every unforgettable moment of the graduation ceremony. From the inspiring speeches to the joyous celebrations, we ensured that the essence of the event was preserved for student graduates and their families to cherish for years to come.
