For videographers who shoot dance festivals

Three days of filming. One fee. Get paid twice.

Dancers will ask you for their clips — and right now you send them for free. The bag, the system and your own store turn that same weekend into a second payday.Dancers ask for their clips and you send them free. Three steps turn the same weekend into a second payday.

Illustrated — the festival life this kit is built for

One reel we filmed: 12.1M organic views on the organizer’s Instagram. A past result, not a guarantee. See the post

Where it hurts

The festival ends. The unpaid work starts.

Pick the one that sounds like your last weekend — we’ll show you where to start.

Three steps

From what’s in the bag to a business of your own.

01The Backpack

$35 one-time

You stop buying gear you won’t use — and you change one thing before your next festival.

  • The Bag — every item and why it earned its place
  • The Failure Log — what broke on the road, what replaced it
  • The Unpacking — the real bag, opened on video
  • The Buy List — direct links, no affiliate padding

Didn’t change how you pack or shoot? 14‑day refund.

02The System

$250 one-time · $35 credited

You shoot a festival like a media team, not a freelancer with a camera.

  • Everything in The Backpack
  • The Organizer Brief — what to ask before you arrive
  • Shot Logic — what to film for hype, FOMO and proof
  • The Three-Day Workflow — cards, backups, naming, delivery

Didn’t change how you pack or shoot? 14‑day refund.

The Studio · $900

You shot the festival. The system does the rest — under your name, with your money.

Not a look inside SDTV's account — your own workspace on the same rails: gallery, search, checkout, delivery. Running for your festivals, your dancers, your revenue.

You do three things. The rest runs by itself.

01

Your part: Create your event

Your festival, in your workspace — not ours.

02

Your part: Upload the weekend

Material goes in, previews generate themselves.

03

Runs by itself: Name it once

Automation tags clips by dancer instead of you renaming files at 3am.

04

Your part: Publish the gallery

Your link, your QR code on the floor, your branding.

05

Runs by itself: They find themselves

Dancers search by name — or by a selfie — and land on their own moment.

06

Runs by itself: They buy

Cart and card payment, built in. No invoices, no DMs, no chasing.

07

Runs by itself: They get the files

Secure download links go out automatically.

08

Runs by itself: You see the money

A ledger of what sold and what’s yours — paid out to you.

Five founding seats, set up by hand.

It starts with a call: your market, your festivals, whether this earns you money. Payment after, not before. When the five seats are taken, the price and the format change.

Right fit

  • You already film festivals, or you’re about to.
  • You’re outside SDTV’s active markets (we check this on the call).

Not for you if

  • You expect clients to be handed to you. The Studio gives you tools, not bookings.

Real frames from festivals SDTV filmed.

15 years

Inside social dance — dancing it before filming it.

Global circuit

Istanbul, Benidorm, Miami, Amsterdam, New York and beyond.

Built, not theorised

The Studio is the same machine Social Dance TV runs on.

After the machine

The system sells what you shoot. Your profile still has to sell you.

Bookings are lost before anyone sees the work — the profile doesn't say what to book you for. Brand Bureau is Kirill's positioning studio; it starts with a free profile check: five honest points and three quick wins, by hand, within 48 hours.

Brand Bureau is a separate studio with its own prices. The check is free and carries no obligation.

Straight answers.

Is this a course?
The first two steps are knowledge — the bag and the system. The third isn’t a course at all: it’s software you operate. You get a working surface, not videos about one.
Do I need my own website or payment setup?
No. The gallery, the checkout and the delivery are part of it. You bring the footage and the festival.
What happens after the 12 months?
The software stays yours. Keeping your galleries live and selling continues on a simple ongoing arrangement, which we agree on the call before you pay — no surprise bill later.
Whose customers are the dancers who buy from my gallery?
Yours. Your gallery, your audience, your list. We see aggregate platform numbers, and we don’t market to your buyers.

Free, no purchase

One list, for creators only — never shared, never sold. No festival sales pitches.

Start with the bag. Or skip to the business.

Thirty-five dollars: fifteen years of packing decisions. Nine hundred: the machine that sells what you shoot — under your name.
