Hybrid and virtual event production
We’ve been delivering hybrid and virtual events for almost 12 years, although back when we first started, of the connected UK population more than 50% still had dial-up internet.
Since then, we’ve provided technical and creative solutions around the globe, taking events to remote attendees, and bringing remote presenters into in-person and virtual events.
Irrespective of the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on real-life events, there seems little reason to doubt that online participation is here to stay, either in the form of the hybrid or completely virtual.
With so much video content online, the challenge for organisers is to produce visually engaging, immersive content that goes far beyond a Zoom or Teams meeting, and to create active participants, not just viewers.
Our remote video production and broadcasting services can transform the look and feel of a livestream, webcast, or virtual event, and an example of what that can do for a conference is in the 01:40 video below, taken from a 2020 project.
We’ve also seen for many years how hybrids extend the reach of events and with so many people now familiar with joining-in online, there’s an opportunity for organisers to increase attendee numbers and produce new income streams from fees and sponsorship.
Going online has benefits for attendees too, such as the elimination of travel and accommodation, and the convenience of being able to view on-demand at any time after the event.
And it's not just conferences that can be an engaging online experience, other types of events such as awards can still deliver a true sense of occasion, as shown in the highlights video further below.
We provide full production and technical support for virtual and hybrid events, alongside physical services that we've been carrying out in venues across the world for nearly 25 years. Those services include:
-
Help and advice on choosing a virtual platform
-
Event design and content creation
-
Set-up, and testing of virtual spaces
-
Livestream hosting
-
Creative, graphics, and branding
-
