PROJECT
Finding the best solutions for Sports content
Sport is the golden goose in Australia, nothing quite like it has the same ratings or coverage, and from a local club, up to professional levels, coverage is important.
Whether its stepping into live stream, covering events, or getting content to build your local clubs member base, one thing is for certain, quality content is your resume, and equipment practical for purpose are essential to your media.

Problems to Solve
We constantly research the best mobile devices for producing content for sport, taking into account all of the issues above.
We saw HONOR phones and devices have hit the market running in Australia, and they caught our eye immediately.
The particular features that caught our eye were the insane battery life, storage, camera quality but particularly the pro models which have night performance improvements, anyone who films or streams night events would know the quality of footage significantly drops under low light, so we are keen to test these out.
We’re going to be testing 2 of HONORS mobile handsets, their headphones and watch. We’re interested to see how watches and headphones can be practical for purpose on competition days, such as taking calls while your main phone is streaming and editing on the go.
Bring in HONOR
Over the next 9 months, we are going to be exclusively using HONOR devices across all our projects and content, with the following scope:
Live Stream with Liveheats at Action Sports events with both devices
Live stream with Liveheats Action Sports events with both devices at night.
Slowmo and filming of high speed action with greyhounds, the second fastest animal on the planet.
Utilising watches and headphones to free up your device, first aid and on the go editing.
Outdoor Photography and content.
Outdoor Videography and content.
Measure Social media analytics against high and low quality video and imagery.
Project Testing
Pika loves a good sprint, and with top speeds of up to 72km/h, catching him having a run and testing slowmo is the ultimate indicator that the cameras will work a dream in sports.
To follow the Project, from next week, all of our content is going to be captured via the devices, so you can follow our 3 social channels to check out the quality and progress.
INSTAGRAM FACEBOOK YOUTUBE
We will also be creating detailed content pieces around the testing which will go up on the associated channels.
You can also search via social media using the tag #honoractionsports which will bring up any content filmed on the devices or in relation to them.
