The whole event was handled expertly - a tremendous success.
The Sydney Catholic Archdiocese wanted to live stream the Palm Sunday Mass and the handing over of the World Youth Day Cross and Icon from the Vatican.
A team of four crew members were stationed in the Vatican to record the ceremony and capture other footage to create an on demand video for after the event.
Live events in Australia, Europe and Asia were set up so parishioners could celebrate this important day together.
Thousands of viewers all over the world were able to participate in this important event, for which the Catholic Archdiocese received praise from the Pope himself!
