When Ancestry launched the Finding Heroes podcast — a powerful series uncovering lost military stories through family history — they needed a production team that could deliver high-quality mobile video podcast services on-location in downtown Toronto.
That’s where Popcast stepped in.
🎥 A Fully Mobile Podcast Studio in the Heart of Toronto
Shooting in a traditional studio was never part of the plan. The Finding Heroes team wanted an immersive, documentary-style conversation — filmed on-location to match the raw, emotional depth of their World War I storytelling.
We brought our pop up podcast studio straight to their set — a flexible, cinematic-grade production rig built for fast deployment anywhere in the city. With Toronto’s dynamic downtown as the backdrop, we transformed a remote environment into a fully optimized content space featuring:
✅ 3 Sony FX3 cinema cameras
✅ Shure MV7 microphones for clean, professional audio
✅ On-site lighting + live sound monitoring
✅ Multi-angle 4K footage ready for broadcast and YouTube syndication
💡 Why Mobile Video Podcast Services Work for Storytelling Brands
Brands like Ancestry choose mobile video podcast production because it offers:
-
Authentic environments that match the narrative
-
High-end production quality without renting expensive studios
-
Speed and flexibility for documentary, interview, and branded content
It’s storytelling without the red tape. All we need is a few feet of space and a few hours of your time — we’ll bring the gear, crew, and creative direction.
🔎 Capturing History, Connection, and Legacy
This episode of Finding Heroes featured military historian David O’Keefe and filmmaker Wayne Abbott exploring Canadian soldiers’ graffiti carved into the walls of a WWI cave near Vimy Ridge — connecting present-day families to names lost in time.
Our job? Make the voices, emotions, and legacy feel as real onscreen as they do in-person. From mic placement to camera angles to lighting setups — every detail was designed to amplify the human experience behind the history.
