Producing Livestreams

I have been live-streaming video on social media since 2015 and I still get nervous.

Before the start of a livestream the producer meets with the client to outline the show, write scripts for the teleprompter and pre-produce any videos that will play as part of the live-stream.

Even with the best plans I still need to be able to adapt to challenges.

The internet can go out, a cable can have a short, the mic cable can get broken, the host may need to be replaced last minute.

Hiring professionals that understand how to troubleshoot these problems and have backups to their backups are vital to a successful livestream.

Focus on what you do best – running your business – and let the production team take care of your show.
