What are hybrid events?

Hybrid events

In general, this refers to events in which people can participate live on site and virtually. There are various forms of hybrid events. These differ primarily in how viewers can interact in the stream and on site. It also depends on the platform used.

We explain how they work from the perspective of different roles.

Viewers in the stream

  • Can follow the stream
  • Cannot ask questions
  • Can ask questions via text chat
  • Can contribute directly via video image and audio

Spectators on site

  • Can ask questions directly via microphone
  • See the PowerPoint on a screen
  • Listen to the speakers via loudspeaker

External speaker

  • Can follow the event live incl. PowerPoint
  • Sees other external speakers
  • Hear the sound from the hall

Speaker on site

  • Can see the external speakers and viewers on a separate screen at any time
  • Questions from a text chat are played or read out to the person
What kind of microphones can be used?

Depending on the requirements of the event, there are various options to choose from. For example, not all microphones can also be used for live sound reinforcement on site. We will be happy to select the right solution for you.

Microphone systems

  • Lapel microphones / lavalier microphones
  • Headsets
  • Table / stand microphone
  • Handheld microphones

We also have audio mixers and loudspeaker systems for live sound reinforcement on site.

And if things get bigger, we have partner companies on hand.

Internet connection and recommended data rate

Internet connection

The internet connection is almost the most important thing for reliable live streaming. A data rate of at least a constant 20Mbit/s in upload should be available.

We highly recommend a connection via network cable. We also use WLAN/Wifi. However, it can happen that there are dropouts in the transmission. Wifi in the 5GHz range is best.

And if there is nothing at the location, we have a special router with a mobile connection. We can also use this router as a backup. If, for example, the internet connection via cable fails, we automatically switch to the mobile network.

What is the quality of recordings?

Quality of recordings

We can record the streaming locally. Compared to recording in the cloud of the streaming service, the quality is many times higher. This means you can publish the event as a whole afterwards or edit individual elements. We are happy to support you with this. It is also possible to record all cameras and microphones individually. This allows even more extensive adjustments to be made in the edit.

Maximum quality of the director's shot: FullHD (1920×1080)

Maximum quality of the cameras: UHD/4K (3840×2160)

General provisions

The duration of a live broadcast is based on the agreed hours. Breaks are not included. If the stream lasts significantly longer, each hour or part thereof will be charged in full.

The offers refer to one event on one day at one location.

Set-up and rehearsals will take place on the day of the livestream. If this is not possible or if set-up the day before is desired, additional costs will be incurred at least for the additional travel time.

These offers only apply to direct end customers.

Should an agency be involved between us as the production company and the end customer, an individual offer will be made. From our experience, there is significantly more coordination effort in all production steps.
