Behind the Scenes: Live Recording Setup at Borderland Music Festival 2025

Borderland Music Festival is all about energy, music, and unforgettable vibes. But to make sure those moments last beyond the festival, our team set up a dedicated live recording system to capture every beat, every cheer, and every drop.

The Setup

MAIN CAM - Sony FS5

We use direct power instead of batteries.

No batteries stress yall!

📍 Supporting Equipment – Tripods and stabilizers for steady wide shots, plus careful cable management for smooth operation.

HANDHELD FAN CAM - Sony FX3

Used as our main “fan cam” to move through the crowd and capture raw, energetic reactions, plus close-up moments of the DJs on stage.

INSTA 360

Giving a full view of the DJ and the stage atmosphere!

How We Worked

Angles Planned – Wide shots for the crowd, close-ups for the DJs, and roaming handheld for those in-the-moment festival vibes.

Live Recording – The FX3 handheld gave us freedom to move, catching both the hype on stage and the excitement from the audience.

Festivals like Borderland Music Festival are full of unforgettable moments—and with live recording, those moments don’t fade when the lights go off. From the DJs behind the decks to the fans jumping in front of the stage, everything was captured for memories, highlight reels, and future stories.
