Absen, SC Media, and Solotech had just finished installing brand new digital signage across the stadium, and I was brought on to document the project as a case study for future clients.

We covered everything from wide drone passes across the bowl to close-up shots showing just how accessible and modular the new screens are. The signage was live during our shoot, so we were able to show it in full operation — not just static installs.

I assembled a small team for this one and handled shooting, drone operating, and editing. Interviews were filmed inside the stadium framed with the new signs active in the background. Flying a drone inside one of Canada’s most iconic arenas? Definitely a career highlight.
