In today’s world, events aren’t just about getting people in a room. Whether it’s a global conference with thousands of online attendees, an internal town hall, or a hybrid product launch broadcast from a unique location, delivering a seamless, engaging experience requires more than just a good internet connection. It takes a creative team, the right tech, and a plan built from the ground up.
At Stream7, we don’t just show up with cameras on the day. We partner with you from the very beginning, helping to shape your event from concept to stream. Here’s how we take an idea and turn it into an unforgettable experience for both in-room and online audiences.
Understanding Your Vision
Every great event starts with a conversation. Before we start talking kit lists and streaming platforms, we take the time to understand what you’re trying to achieve. Are you launching a new product to a global audience? Sharing company updates with your team? Running a training session, awards ceremony, or a live Q&A?
We’ll ask questions like:
- Who is your audience, and how will they join?
- What’s the key message you want them to take away?
- How do you want the event to feel?
- Are you thinking in-person, hybrid, or fully virtual?
- How interactive do you want it to be?
Sometimes our clients come to us with fully-formed event plans. Other times, it starts with, “We think we should do something… but we’re not sure what.” Either way, we love collaborating from the start and helping shape the right solution.
Our aim is always the same – to take the pressure off you, and make the technical side feel easy.
Designing a Tailored Solution
Once we’ve got a clear picture of what success looks like for your event, our team gets to work designing the right technical setup.
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. The tech for a high-energy product launch with multiple camera angles, dynamic graphics, and interactive polls is very different from what’s needed for a simple panel discussion or internal update.
This stage includes:
- Choosing the format: Should it be hybrid, virtual, or fully in-person with a broadcast element? We’ll guide you through the pros and cons.
- Venue considerations: We’ve worked everywhere from hotel conference rooms to historical buildings and purpose-built studios. We know how to turn any space into a professional-grade broadcast environment.
- Platform selection: Whether you’re using Zoom, Teams, a custom microsite, or something bespoke, we can recommend what will work best for your goals.
- Technical planning: Cameras, microphones, lighting, vision mixers, encoders, graphics packages – we plan it all out, ensuring nothing is left to chance.
At this stage, we’ll also help you think beyond the technical. We often advise on staging, presenter delivery, visual branding, and ways to make the audience experience memorable – whether they’re watching from the room or from their sofa.
Pre-Production and Preparation
With a plan in place, the real work begins. Pre-production is where we make sure every moving part is perfectly aligned before show day. This often includes:
- Developing detailed running orders and scripts
- Holding technical rehearsals with your presenters
- Designing and testing on-screen graphics and slides
- Preparing any pre-recorded video content
- Setting up streaming platforms and audience engagement tools
This stage is crucial. The more we rehearse and refine before the event, the smoother it will run on the day. We like to eliminate as many surprises as possible – and we always have backup plans in place, just in case.
One of the things clients tell us they love about working with Stream7 is that we don’t just handle the tech. We become an extension of your team, thinking through the entire event journey with you, spotting potential issues before they arise, and offering solutions you might not have considered.
Live Event Delivery
When the big day arrives, it’s time to put the plan into action. Our crew will arrive early to get set up, whether that’s rigging lights, testing microphones, or configuring vision mixing desks. From the moment doors open (virtually or physically), we’re on it – monitoring every aspect of the production so that your audience gets a polished, professional experience.
Behind the scenes, you’ll find us:
- Switching between multiple camera angles
- Balancing audio levels to ensure crisp, clear sound
- Running video content and on-screen graphics
- Monitoring the stream health to catch and fix issues fast
- Managing live audience interactions, such as Q&As and polls
All you need to worry about is delivering your content. We’ll handle the rest.
And if something unexpected happens? Don’t worry. We thrive on problem-solving and always have contingency plans ready to keep things running smoothly.
Post-Event Wrap-Up and Content Creation
Just because the livestream ends doesn’t mean our work does.
In fact, for many of our clients, the post-event phase is just as important as the live moment. We offer a range of post-production services to make sure you get lasting value from your event, such as:
- Providing high-quality recordings of the full event
- Creating short highlight reels or social media snippets
- Editing individual sessions into standalone videos
- Supplying analytics on audience engagement and stream performance
That way, your content keeps working for you long after the applause dies down.
