We have been busy finishing up our Dance Recitals shoots and Graduations as well as editing all of the Recital and Showcases we filmed. Want to see what our livestreams look like? Check out any of the 6 graduations we live-streamed. NOTE: In many cases, we start streaming 30 to 60 minutes early so you may have to fast forward to get to the actual Graduation Ceremony.

We use a combination of video cameras and PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom) cameras that are robotically controlled. PTZ cameras can often be put in places that it may be difficult to have a live operator.

Often our sound comes from a mix of what the school provides us for audio and some of our own mics that we might put out. It all depends on the school and what is available.

Graduations can be a challenging environment to capture and livestream. Often you are restricted to where you can set up and sometimes you can be in high vibration environments. To help make a stream successful, we are always interfacing with the onsite IT departments that handle the network at the location.

Inspire Dance Studio (IDS) videos have been delivered to the Foxwest YMCA and can be picked up there. If you ordered a video and they don't have one there for you, ask them to check under your maiden name, spouses name, and/or business name. We print labels to identify each person's order but we go off of the data that is reported to us on your order. Because we use PayPal to securely process our orders, it may default to a name like your business or spouse. If they still can't find your order, please contact Champion Video directly and we can trace down if we received an order for you and whether or not that has been delivered to Foxwest YMCA. If we have missed your order, we will ship it directly to you.

If you ordered a digital file, those emails have been sent out today. Remember to download your video to your own device. We will leave the video on our server (which allows you to stream your video to a smart TV) for the period of one year. If you ordered the combo deal you will get two separate emails from us.

Thank you for trusting Champion Video to capture these dancers great moments on stage in 2024!!!

Good news! Our online ordering page is back up and running. We apologize for the short interruption and realize that people may have been trying to order videos for the Fox Crossing Parks & Recreation Department Dance Recital and the ALL RISE Northeast Wisconsin Passion Play before the deadline for early bird pricing expired. We will leave the early bird pricing active for another week so that if you wanted to order before the deadline but couldn't, now you still can!!!

It has been brought to our attention that our website is currently down so if you are trying to order a video for an event we are covering, please be advised that our online store is currently unavailable. I will post here when it is back up and running. Make sure to "follow" Champion Video so that you can get notified.

We are happy to report that our online webstore is once again displaying correctly as a secure website. NOTE: Our online credit card processing is ALWAYS secure because we use the PayPal portal which is inherently secure. However, because of a problem during the renewal process of our SSL (security certificate) for our website, our website itself appeared to be "unsecure" which caused some browser such as chrome to give warnings.

03/11/2024

Our website and online ordering site is temporarily down. If you are trying to place an order for a video, please be patient until we can get it up and running again.

(If you are a geek like us and want to know why, it has to do with a challenge in updating our SSL. We were told because the hosting company migrated their servers this past year that SSL renewals sometimes require a complete reset to make work properly and thus we have a 6 hour wait for that to be propagated. Seems a little fishy to us, but we will wait the time frame and hopefully be back up and running!)
