Do You Have Questions About Live Event Production?
Explore Expert Answers to Common FAQs About Event Production
There are many moving parts when planning a corporate event. That’s why companies hire event planners to help with guest lists, the content of the presentations, seating arrangements, and bookings. Rarely, however, are they experts on the AV production for the event. That’s where live event production companies take over.
Distinguishing between the two is important, yet many people are unaware of the latter and their impact on an event’s success.

What is Live Event Production, and Why is it Important?
A typical live event production includes planning, coordinating, and executing aspects of a live, streamed, or hybrid event. This includes helping with overall concept development, technical setup of AV and lighting (sometimes with rentals included), on-site coordination and management, and help with post-event clean-up. Professional event production enhances engagement, yields a high-quality output, expands flexibility and customization, and allows for elevated technology like live streaming and interactive elements.
How Can Professional Live Streaming Enhance My Event?
Today, most events include live streaming to incorporate remote participants. Streaming allows for increased reach (and revenue) by allowing you to invite people in other geographical areas or anyone unable to attend in person. When done properly, live streaming allows real-time engagement between virtual participants and the event via things like live chats and question queues. Recordings of live streams also make for vital content to be repurposed either for marketing campaigns or as on-demand content for future participants.
What Should I Consider When Choosing AV Equipment for My Event?
As a live event production company, we’ll provide all necessary AV equipment. We’ll review your venue size and layout, the type of event you’re running, and the audience size to find speakers, displays, and microphones that will best fit your needs. Once we gauge your event’s AV needs, we’ll look for ways to fit them into your planned budget without sacrificing quality (cheap equipment may be costlier over time due to maintenance issues), particularly through AV and lighting rentals.
