Livestream & Recorded Multicam Production
Multicam & Livestreaming, Run by a Cinematographer
One compact system covers cameras, lighting, sound, vision mixing, graphics and streaming, and I'm on site running it. Smaller jobs are just me. For bigger ones, I bring in a small team of operators I've worked with for years.
I work with production companies, agencies, directors, producers, event teams and freelance filmmakers who need multicam support.
Live Event & Conference Filming
Remote-controlled cameras cover stages, panels and speakers discreetly, without big crews or camera positions that block anyone's view. Live, Recorded, or Both
How it’s used
Conferences, summits and keynotes
Panels, Q&As and fireside chats
Interviews and long-form discussions
Training and internal comms
Product demos and launches
It's the same kit either way, so you can decide based on your audience and timing, not technical limits.
Designed for Real Venues
The kit is quick to set up, quiet in operation and small, so it suits conference centres, hotels, theatres and client offices.
Live, Recorded, or Both
Live to YouTube, Vimeo, LinkedIn or any RTMP destination
Live-to-tape: a finished programme cut on the day, without the pressure of going live
Recorded for edit: clean recordings of every camera, ready to polish and publish later
A Cinematographer’s Eye on Your Production
Most livestream outfits start with the tech. I start with the picture. After 30 years as a camera operator and cinematographer, that means proper lighting, considered framing and clean sound, with a reliable technical workflow behind it. The result looks like a programme, not a webcam call.
Lean When It Can Be
I can run and vision mix up to three cameras myself. That keeps crews small, set-ups fast and costs sensible, without cutting corners on the result.
Scaled When It Needs to Be
For larger productions, I bring in operators and technical directors I trust. The workflow stays the same, with more hands on deck.
Watch: highlights from two 3-camera livestreams, cut live to YouTube.
The Technology: Smart Cameras, Human Direction
My PTZ cameras have AI tracking and auto-framing, which holds moving speakers smoothly in frame. The creative decisions stay with me: I watch every shot and direct the framing so it serves the content.
Fewer people, more angles: one operator can run a multi-camera production, which cuts crew costs and the footprint on site.
Unobtrusive: small, silent cameras that don't distract speakers or audience.
Consistent: steady framing from the first session to the last, however long the day.
Television Aesthetics
Broadcast quality, whatever the room. My setup turns an ordinary office or meeting space into something that looks like a studio.
Studio Lighting
I bring my own lighting kit rather than relying on office overheads, so skin tones are accurate and the picture has depth.
Discreet Audio
Lav mics are standard, so you get clean sound without desk mics cluttering the shot.
Rapid Rigging
Everything is flight-cased and pre-configured. I'm typically rigged and ready for checks within 90 minutes of access, and I clear out just as quickly.
Seamless Visual Integration
A professional stream needs more than camera cuts. I handle the full graphics package so your client's branding is front and centre.
On-screen graphics: animated lower thirds, logos and ticker messages, added live
Playback: VTs, intro stings and countdown timers
Presentations: PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides, full screen or picture-in-picture alongside the speaker
Holding slides: "Starting soon" and "Back shortly" as standard, so viewers never see a blank screen
Getting the Signal to the Audience
I handle the connection from the production to your viewers, whether that's a single platform or several at once through Restream.
Output Options
Direct stream to YouTube, Vimeo, LinkedIn or any RTMP destination
Simultaneous streaming to multiple platforms
Live programme output with a local recording running alongside
Live-to-tape when you don't need to stream
Built for Reliability
I stream over the venue's internet when it's up to the job, with bonded or backup connectivity when it matters. What's produced on site is exactly what your audience sees.
One operator, one compact kit, complete multicam productions: live or recorded.

Project-Specific Considerations
Some jobs need more: travel and accommodation, pre-rig or rehearsal days, set or staging, bonded internet, or extra crew, cameras or kit. We'll agree all of it up front. The aim is to scale the production to the job, nothing more and nothing less.
