Capturing the Energy of Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul Festival 2024

A Weekend of Music, Fun, and More

This summer, I had the incredible opportunity to shoot and edit the highlights video for the Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul Festival in Moseley, Birmingham. Spread over three unforgettable days in July, this vibrant festival has become a true celebration of ground-breaking UK talent and international trailblazers. As part of Big Blue Whale, we specialize in Event Video Production in Leeds and beyond. And while this was a one-person team across the entire weekend, we still managed to capture every magical moment on film.

Partnering with Class Dynamix was an absolute pleasure. They provided a compelling concept and original music that aligned perfectly with our goal of producing a high-quality school music video. From brainstorming sessions to final edits, Danny brought a high level of enthusiasm and expertise that elevated the project to new heights. The synergy between our team and Danny’s creative vision was exceptional, and the results speak for themselves.

Our focus was on creating a school video that not only engages but also delivers a powerful message to students worldwide: Dream big, work hard, and achieve anything you set your mind to. This message is universal, and through our video we brought it to life in a way that resonates with students and educators alike.

The Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul Festival is more than just a music event—it’s a diverse and immersive experience that blends performances with workshops, award-winning food, and much more. This year’s lineup featured a stunning mix of innovative UK artists alongside international icons. I had the chance to film live sets from artists like Greentea Peng, Kurupt FM from People Just Do Nothing, Yussef Dayes, The Blackbyrds, Craig Charles, Nubiyan Twist, and the legendary Kool & The Gang.

Despite being a solo videographer for the entire weekend, I ensured that no moment was missed—from the mellow grooves of jazz to the high-energy beats of funk and soul. Every performance brought something unique, creating a truly eclectic mix of sounds, and it was my mission to capture it all.

The Highlights Reel: Bringing the Festival to Life

After three days of non-stop music and good vibes, I dove into the editing process back at Big Blue Whale. Setting the visuals to the perfect soundtrack—Wonder 45 – Make It Happen—I crafted this highlight reel to reflect the joyful, upbeat essence of the festival itself. It’s a celebration of the energy and vibrancy of Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul Festival, capturing not just the music, but the spirit of the crowd, the beautiful surroundings of Moseley Park, and the moments of pure joy throughout the event.

Even with a one-person team, we were able to capture every aspect of the festival’s excitement. Whether you were there and want to relive the magic, or are watching for the first time, this highlights video brings the festival’s energy back to life.
