For Richard Quinn's Spring/Summer 2027 show at London Fashion Week, we supplied a 3-camera PTZ package, a PTZ operator and a camera assistant to record the show at Lindley Hall.
The cameras were rigged high on the venue's truss, alongside the crystal chandeliers that defined the set.
The Brief
Richard Quinn showed his Spring/Summer 2027 collection on September 19, 2026, with Helena Christensen closing the show.
The collection of more than 40 looks centred on the ritual of dressing, with ball gowns, crinolines, feathers and crystal embroidery.
The set turned Lindley Hall into a mirrored salon, with huge crystal chandeliers hung from a large truss above the runway.
The show needed recording from angles that worked with that set, without cameras or crew getting in the way of the room.

How It Came Together
The venue had a massive truss running above the space, with the show's chandeliers rigged from it.
That gave us the perfect spot for the cameras.
We rigged the FR7s on the truss too, giving the recording high angles over the runway that a tripod on the floor could never reach. PTZ cameras made that possible.
Once rigged, nobody needs to touch them: our PTZ operator ran all 3 FR7s remotely from the RM-IP500 over an ethernet network, panning, tilting and zooming from the ground.
Every FR7 carried a power zoom lens, which is what lets the FR7 zoom remotely.
The 28-135mms reached in for close-ups on the embroidery and feathers, and the 16-35mm took in the full sweep of the set.
Each camera recorded to its own Shogun Inferno, and the MD-QUAD put all 3 feeds on one screen so the team could watch every angle at once.
