Why Start with a Consultation?

When you engage BMG for live event consultation, you receive strategic planning that eliminates surprises and reduces execution risk:

  • Run of show plan – Detailed rundown with segment timing, technical cues, and contingency protocols mapped to your event objectives.
  • Crew and AV/staging plan – Complete staffing requirements, equipment specifications, and logistics coordination so you know exactly what’s needed.
  • Multi-platform streaming approach – Distribution strategy for corporate portals, social channels, and broadcast outlets with quality and bandwidth considerations.
  • Transmissions and logistics checklist – Documented network requirements, backup connectivity, and critical path dependencies to prevent last-minute failures.

What’s Included: Live Event Consultation

BMG’s broadcast engineers and production managers provide comprehensive event planning that covers every technical and creative element:

  • Venue selection and permits – Site evaluation for production requirements, power capacity, network connectivity, load-in access, and permitting coordination.
  • Run of show (rundown) – Minute-by-minute event timeline with technical cues, speaker transitions, video playback, graphics triggers, and backup scenarios.
  • Graphics creation and integration – Lower-thirds, branded overlays, presentation slides, data visualizations, and animated elements designed to your brand standards.
  • Multi-screen assets, file formatting, delivery – Content optimized for in-room LED walls, confidence monitors, broadcast & livestreaming, social clips, and post-event distribution.
  • On-site AV/staging and crew planning – Camera positions, audio mixing requirements, lighting design, staging layouts, and complete technical staffing plans.
  • Live transmissions; multi-platform encoding – Simultaneous streaming to multiple destinations with adaptive bitrate delivery, backup encoders, and failover protocols.
  • Talent booking and management – Speaker coordination, rehearsal scheduling, green room logistics, prompter operation, and day-of talent support.
  • Social media needs – content distribution – Real-time clip creation, platform-specific formatting, caption generation, and scheduled posting for maximum engagement during and after the event.
  • Post-event – VoD – On-demand archive setup, highlight reel editing, chapter markers, searchable metadata, and distribution to internal portals or public platforms.
  • Content relevance and storage strategy – Retention planning based on content lifecycle—determining what stays accessible, what archives deep, and what can be deleted to manage costs.

How It Works

  1. Assess – Led by one of our Project Leads, our broadcast engineers and production managers work with your team to understand event goals, audience expectations, venue constraints, and risk factors. We document current capabilities, identify gaps, and define success criteria.
  2. Plan
    • Production Planning – We develop comprehensive rundowns, technical diagrams, crew assignments, and contingency protocols. Every camera angle, audio source, graphics cue, and streaming destination documented before event day.
    • Budget – Transparent cost breakdown covering venue, crew, equipment, connectivity, post-production, and contingencies. One budget, one partner—no hidden costs or vendor coordination surprises.
  3. Pilot – For recurring events or high-stakes productions, we recommend pilot runs—testing workflows, validating network capacity, rehearsing talent, and identifying issues before the main event. Lessons learned get incorporated into final plans.
  4. Launch – BMG executes everything. From load-in through final strike, our team manages technical setup, rehearsals, live show execution, multi-platform distribution, and real-time troubleshooting. You focus on content and audience—we handle the rest, backed by our 24/7 Cloud NOC.
