LIVE STREAMING

We offer live streaming services for corporate, sporting and musical events, using broadcast quality cameras and bonded cellular connectivity to share your event with the world on the platform of your choice. Using the Blackmagic Television broadcast system, we can supply multiple cameras to cover all angles of your event, plus supply you with a file of the final mix for archiving your event or further distribution.

Why use us?

We’ve invested in Blackmagic television broadcast quality equipment and the latest Sony broadcast quality cameras to stream your event in full HD with professional sound equipment to match. Our stream team has more than ten years experience in hosting live stream events and we offer options of up to ten independent camera angles. We also have the ability to stream via a mobile camera with a dedicated mic for interviewing on the move as well as streaming via our drone for aerial footage. For sporting events we can offer instant slow motion replays as well as a highlights package between events.

How does it work?

Before the event we’ll do a site inspection to check the venue for power, connectivity, lighting and other practical considerations. On the day we’ll arrive at your venue at least two hours before the event to set up and test our equipment and connectivity to ensure your stream runs smoothly to your preferred social media platform or RMTP server. We can integrate live messaging for colleagues, friends or family to comment on the stream. We can also include graphics, lower thirds, holding screens, copyright-free music and countdown timers to add to your stream. Post event we’ll supply you with a recording for you to download and keep.

We always live stream your videos as private or unlisted so that only the people you share the video link with will have access to the live stream. Should you prefer to have the video publicly available please let us know.

What happens if there is load shedding?

We have our own independent, silent power which will run our stream equipment for up to 8 hours, giving you peace of mind that there will be no interruptions.

What happens if there is no internet?

If your venue is unable to supply a good internet connection we’ll stream via our bonded (4 independent SIM cards) cellular connection, the same used by SKY News, CNN and most other broadcast companies. Should there be a complete lack of cell connectivity we will record the live event and upload to the required social media platform as soon as we’re back in a connected area.

What happens if the stream drops during the event?

Should there be an unforeseen technical problem, or the social media platform goes down, the event will continue to be recorded, and uploaded at the earliest convenience.

Do I need a sound system or projector?

Depending on the venue, you may still require a Sound System or Projector for playback of music, videos, tributes, etc. We have a suitable sound system that will work in most venues which can be rented for an additional amount. Always remember, when streaming to social media platforms, if you play any copyrighted music there’s a strong possibility the stream will be blocked.

Do I need a Photographer or videographer?

Yes, if your event is a wedding or special occasion, we would only stream the ceremony, not the entire event, as any copyrighted music played during the dancing would result in the stream being blocked on social media. Should you require a photographer, we have one available on our team, but this would be a separate cost.

How reliable is video streaming?

Our streaming equipment setup is very reliable. The only limiting factor is internet speed at your venue which we will assess before the day of the event.
