Capturing Innovation: Skillman Video Group at MIT Enterprise Forum Events
A Decade of Partnership
The MIT Enterprise Forum, based in Cambridge and with chapters worldwide, is a non-profit networking organization passionately dedicated to the entrepreneurial community.
Their mission statement encapsulates their goal: “We inform, connect, and coach technology entrepreneurs—enabling them to rapidly transform ideas into world-changing companies. We are a global network of local organizations, inspired by MIT, and open to the world.”
Since our first collaboration in 2011, it has been an honor to work with them on multiple occasions, documenting their pivotal events that bring together venture capitalists and startups.

Preparation: Capturing the Essence of Live Events
Shooting video at a live event like the one hosted this week by the MIT Enterprise Forum presents unique challenges.
Live events are inherently dynamic and unpredictable, offering limited control over the environment.
Our primary role isn’t to direct but to capture the essence of the moment authentically and compellingly.
In preparation, we conducted extensive consultations with the client to align our strategies with their expectations, ensuring a smooth operation on the day of the event where precision and adaptability are paramount.
Videography: The Art of Live Coverage
On-site, the logistics of setting up without disrupting the event were crucial.
With two cameras in play—one for steady coverage close to the action and another for dynamic, roaming shots—we ensured comprehensive coverage that allowed for creative and engaging perspectives.
This dual-camera approach not only provided a safety net but also enriched the breadth of footage available for the final product.
Expertise in Action: Skillman Video Group at Work
Navigating the complexities of a live event requires more than just technical skill; it demands an acute awareness of the environment and the ability to anticipate moments before they unfold.
Our team’s expertise allows us to operate efficiently, capturing high-quality content while remaining unobtrusive.
We pride ourselves on our ability to not just attend these events but to enhance them through our videographic storytelling, bringing out the vibrancy and significance of the interactions and presentations.
Reflecting on Our Role in Entrepreneurial Journeys
Over the years, our partnership with the MIT Enterprise Forum has allowed us to be a part of numerous groundbreaking discussions and innovative showcases.
Each event is a testament to the thriving spirit of entrepreneurship that the Forum nurtures.
For us at Skillman Video Group, these opportunities are not just projects but are also a portal into the cutting-edge ideas shaping our world.
Capturing these moments is a responsibility we cherish, providing a window for the wider community to witness the future as it takes shape.
Looking Forward: Continuing the Legacy
As we look to the future, our continued collaboration with the MIT Enterprise Forum remains a cornerstone of our commitment to excellence in videography.
With each event, we refine our craft and deepen our understanding of the dynamic world of technology entrepreneurship.
We are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead, ready to capture the next big idea that emerges from this vibrant community.
