About the event
An exclusive, hands-on Sony photo and video experience with media access to a real live Muay Thai tournament. Only 5 spots available!
Forget staged setups. This is your chance to get behind the lens at a real Muay Thai fight night.
Join Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Jo Stephan for an exclusive, hands-on photo and video workshop at SRG Thai Boxing, where you'll get the rare opportunity to capture a live fighting tournament from an authorised media position, with a crowd, atmosphere, adrenaline and all the action that comes with fight night.
With exclusive access arranged for this experience, participants will receive a media pass to photograph and film the event alongside Jo, learning how to anticipate the action, capture split-second moments and tell a powerful story through both stills and video.
We'll meet at 4:00 pm for registration and media pass collection, followed by a safety briefing, venue guidelines and a practical walkthrough of camera settings and shooting techniques before the fights begin. Once the action gets underway, it's time to put those skills into practice in a real-world sports environment.
From sharp action shots and dramatic portraits to slow-motion footage, crowd reactions and behind-the-scenes moments, you'll learn how to work quickly, adapt to changing light and capture the energy of a live sporting event.
This isn't just about camera settings. It's about learning to think on your feet, anticipate the moment and come away with images and footage that tell the story of fight night.
Only 5 spots available. This is an intimate, small-group experience with exclusive media access, so you'll get the opportunity to learn, shoot and receive guidance alongside Jo throughout the event.
Bring your camera, get ready to move and experience fight night from behind the lens.
