First arising as a niche marketing gimmick, livestreaming has grown to be a mainstream media asset used worldwide. Everyone from the local bakery through to global brands are embracing the power of livestreaming en masse.

What makes a great livestreaming production service?

Great livestreaming productions services unite expertise with state-of-the-art equipment to create engaging livestreamed content tailored to specific needs. If you’re looking for a livestreaming production crew, the following may be helpful to keep in mind:

  • Livestream experts. While most production studios know how to make great video content, few are livestreaming experts. Look for teams with a sound knowledge of both production and streaming techniques, along with demonstrable experience in each. Moreover, ensure they are well versed in event logistics and know how to capture the moments that matter. To assess, request examples of previous live productions, along with past client references or testimonials. Importantly, understand backup plans and their troubleshooting approach in the event of a livestream mishap.
  • Sector speciality. Much like all production studios, livestreaming teams tend to specialise in an area or two. Some cover predominantly corporate clients for things like conferences, product releases, training and more. Others lean into the lifestyle space specialising in music, fashion, art, food, and culture. Ultimately consider your needs, your audience, and event type and filter your search accordingly. Often, the most well-suited team will specialise in your area of need.
  • Fully equipped. The best livestream production teams are equipped with everything needed for end-to-end servicing. They typically boast well-staffed crews, top notch equipment, comprehensive services, and the latest in-stream technology. Equally, consider the studio’s depth when it comes to overall production capability. Look for full-service teams who can plan, execute, and deliver all elements from start to finish.
  • Packaged options. Livestreaming coverage need not cost the earth. That is why the best production studios bundle all the essential services to deliver maximum value for clients. While reviewing packages look for those that are affordable, flexible, and scalable. Furthermore, consider the number of camera operators needed, filming duration, sound, lighting, distribution, and any extras. Finally, review inclusions like usage rights, footage ownership, and how files are shared post shoot.
