    What to Capture

    High-quality images and videos help tell the story and can be used in recaps and media.
    Wide shots of [BUILDING | BRIDGE | LANDMARK] fully lit in blue
    Close-up shots showing architectural details in blue
    Optional: People viewing or photographing the lights (with consent where applicable)
    Short video clips (5–20 seconds) panning across the lit landmark

    Simple Tips

    Timing: Shoot at dusk or early night so the structure and sky are visible.
    Orientation: Capture both horizontal and vertical formats for different platforms.
    Stability: Hold the camera/phone steady or use a tripod if available.
    Credits: Keep track of who took the photo/video so we can credit properly.
