The equipment captured the video directly from the camera via wirefire into Edward Martin III's laptop so that editing could begin immediately after production wrapped.
For most of the shots, the camera was mounted on the convention's A/V cart which meant not only could it be easily moved about the room, but smooth dolly shots were executed using it.
The only thing to go wrong was during the editing workshop when Premiere Pro refused to load the project in front of a room of patient viewers.
The official premiere was Sunday at the Fandance Film Festival at Norwescon.
Filmed using a mini-DV videotape two and half hours on 30 March 2013.
