He offers a discreet and professional service to those wishing to bring together family and friends who are unable to attend through distance, health or other restrictions.  Ceremonies can be broadcast live via private secure link from a variety of locations including churches, chapels, civic buildings, gravesides and any other location requested by the family. 

The service is fully bespoke and offers various options; these include single or multi-camera setup, individual mics for the officiant and readers, pre-recorded or live music capture, downloadable copy for family and optional high quality DVD copy as keepsake.

St Stephen's Church, Cinderford, Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire

An honour to be part of this truly memorable occasion.  BHWH Productions provided hybrid event with multicam live-streaming to over 400 viewers worldwide, full audio systems in and outside the church.  

Holy Rood Catholic Church, Swindon, Wiltshire 

We captured some beautiful still images at Holy Rood, Swindon with the sunlight streaming through the striking stained glass windows.  

A pleasure to attend this funeral mass in Swindon to livestream, with one of our LiveU encoders providing a fully bonded network connection. This professional streaming device combines the cellular networks that this area of Wiltshire provides one strong stable upload connection for streaming without interuption. BHWH Productions is proud to provide this technology for every livestream we do and is included in our standard pricing.   

Great Malvern Priory, Malvern, Worcestershire

It is said that building work on this fabulous priory began in 1085; not long after the Battle of Hastings.  The priory was built for 30 monks originally.  

It was a pleasure to provide our livestream services so that family abroad could join with mourners.  For this scale of building, BHWH Productions recommended a multicam setup in this beautiful area in Malvern, Worcestershire - as discreet as ever but allowing for greater immersive viewing experience through a variety of camera angles during the service. 

St. Martin's Church, Bremhill, Calne, Wilshire

St. Martin's Church was built c.1200 and has a square 14th century tower.  BHWH Productions was able to offer new video capability; video and data transmission over fibre optic network, thanks to technology from BlackMagic Design.  This is the perfect solution for various applications, in particular events that require transmission over longer distances, with secure networks.  In this case, family expected large numbers of mourners to attend the service and had convenient access to the village hall situated around 250m from the church. This distance falls beyond the typical limitations of an SDI infrastructure and therefore a perfect solution was for BHWH Productions to deploy fibre optic for highly reliable and robust high definition video relay. Here we have the service taking place in St Martin's Bremhill, Calne, relayed into a village hall nearby in Bremhill, Calne.  

St. Gregory's Church, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire

St. Gregory's Church, Cheltenham was built in 1854 in the decorated style and designed by the famous architect Charles Hanson.  It contains many beautiful stained glass windows and stone carvings.  It was a pleasure to livestream from this splendid church. 

St Thomas Church, St. Dogmaels, Cardigan, Wales

Alongside the Abbey ruins lies the church of St. Thomas.  St Dogmaels abbey was founded in 1120.  The church has links with the past with original 15th century floor tiles which can be seen in the nave.  BHWH Productions brought in technical kit from the 21st century to personlise the ceremony, including visual tribute and PA, to make this a very special farewell.  

St Peter's Church, Chippenham, Wiltshire

BHWH Productions often works alongside the fabulous FW Jones & Son Funeral Directors and this was another livestream of the service and burial, so that family abroad could watch in real time and pay their respects.  

St. Mary's Church, Bibury, Cotswolds, Gloucestershire

This stunning church near Cirencester was built in the 11th century. 

It was an honour to provide support for set-up and operation of a slideshow as mourners arrived for this service. The kit we supplied included Blackmagic Design Hyperdecks and an Epson long-throw laser projector for a highly professional and seamless visual tribute.  It is important in such an historic building to ensure the setup is invisible to guests and operation is kept discreet & professional. 

St Michael and All Angels, Kington St. Michael, Wiltshire

Live-streaming in this lovely church in Wiltshire so family and friends abroad could be part of the final farewell. 

This area situated in a challenging zone with regards cellular coverage. Ben's specialism is attending rural venues such as this and carrying out a thorough site survey to establish the best way to livestream.
