Torrens University Hamilton Island

IPER worked closely with Torrens University to plan a highlight film that would capture the energy and experience of a unique university event held on Hamilton Island. Pre production focused on understanding the purpose of the event and identifying the key moments that would best reflect Torrens University’s culture, student engagement and sense of community. Planning also involved coordinating travel and logistics for an island location, as well as developing a flexible shooting approach that allowed us to respond naturally to live moments as they unfolded.

Production took place on location on Hamilton Island, capturing the event across multiple settings and activities. We filmed a mix of candid interactions, presentations and atmospheric visuals that showcased both the people and the location. Working in such a visually striking environment allowed us to lean into natural light and scenic backdrops, helping elevate the energy of the film. The focus was on capturing genuine moments between students and staff, giving the highlight video an authentic and immersive feel.

In post production the footage was shaped into a fast paced and engaging highlight film designed to reflect the excitement of the event. The edit focused on rhythm, visual flow and emotional impact, bringing together people, place and experience into a cohesive story. Colour grading enhanced the tropical environment while sound design helped drive momentum throughout the film. The final video serves as both a memorable recap for attendees and a promotional asset that showcases Torrens University’s commitment to experiential learning and student connection.
