Ernst & Young - Lions' Lair

A pastiche of the TV programme Dragons' Den, produced for global accountancy firm Ernst & Young. The concept was to enable staff to present new ideas to a group of Partners (the Lions), who then chose whether or not to invest their own time and money in those ideas. The programme was screened in three "episodes" to an audience of three thousand at the firm's 2007 London Academy conference at ExCel in Docklands.

This was a 2-day, multi-camera shoot, shot "as live", resulting in 25 hours of footage from three sources with eight "iso" audio feeds. My challenge was to edit this down to three 4 minute 'episodes', that demonstrated the clarity of the best presenters' thinking while retaining the excitement, vibrancy and unique style of the original "Dragons' Den' idea.
