The concert footage featured on the standard edition of the set was directed by Paul Becher, who has overseen live visuals for McCartney for over 200 performances. The performances were shot in high definition using 15 cameras and digital footage incorporated from 75 flipcams handed out to fans over the course of the three night stand.[ The audio mix, in both stereo and 5.1, was handled by longtime Beatles engineer Geoff Emerick, and also longtime McCartney engineer Paul Hicks, whose credits include the recent Beatles remasters, The Beatles Anthology and Let It Be... Naked, and two Grammy awards for his mixing work on the Beatles' Love album.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Geoff Emerick engineered the original 'Sgt. Pepper's' — this concert marks his return to mixing McCartney live after decades.
The 2009 Citi Field shows were McCartney's first NYC concerts since 2005 and deliberately echoed the Beatles' 1965 Shea Stadium show — same borough, bigger stadium, infinitely better sound system.
