Multi-camera coverage of your conference, fundraiser, or product launch. We hand back highlight reels, social cuts, and the raw footage, which stays yours.
This presentation series was part of OSNexus' Ceph Days 2025, this year in Seattle.
These live streams were part of the TDHS Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah services in 2024.
The City of Beaverton asked Sandpiper Video to produce the State of the City video for 2023's live broadcast. This production had to be
We pull up to your venue with a two or three person crew, professional Canon cameras on gimbals (and tripods), wireless audio, a very capable lighting kit, and a backup of every piece of gear that matters. We capture the day. A week or two later you've got video you can use, and the raw files sit on your drives, not ours. That's the whole arrangement.
We've covered events for Microsoft and Google, shot keynotes with REI and a range of software startups, cut fundraiser highlight reels for nonprofits, and handled product launch coverage that ran on social the same week. But there's so much more. The event day is everything around the stage: the B-roll and the on-site interviews that turn a room full of speakers into a story.
The Pacific Northwest is home base. Seattle, Tacoma, Bellevue, Portland, and the stretch between them are a day trip. Anywhere else in the country, we handle the travel logistics and bring on local supplemental crew when the kit list calls for it.
We get there early. The crew sets up a few lights for whatever interview corner we'll use later. Sometimes we put the light on a wheeled stand to do roaming interviews. Cameras come up on sticks for wide and tight coverage of the stage and a third body goes on a gimbal for B-roll.
We back up to a second set of drives before we leave the venue. Cards stay with the producer until the footage lands on our edit system the next morning.
And if the lights and cameras are already up for interviews, we can grab more testimonial content while the gear's in place. Same production day, more usable footage out of it.
On the intro call we'll ask what you plan to do with the content. The answer points to one of three packages. Every one of them ends with you owning the raw files and the copyright, no matter how much or how little post happens in between.
Organized files, named the way an editor would name them. Audio levels cleaned up. Full copyright ownership. Your internal team handles the cuts.
Best takes pulled, color corrected, audio matched and synced. Your editor starts on hour one instead of day three.
Highlight reels, multi-angle presentation cuts, short-form social. Ready to publish, ready to send out.
Most clients land on the middle package. It gives an internal video team a real head start without locking us into weeks of finish work they'd rather keep in-house. When the calendar's tight or the team is lean, full post is the difference between content that ships and content that sits on a hard drive.
Multi-camera Canon cinema bodies on sticks and on DJI gimbals, Sennheiser wireless audio, professional lighting for interview corners, and DJI wireless video for monitoring. A backup body and a second wireless system come along on every shoot.
For bigger productions we scale the kit and crew up. More operators, extra cameras, jibs, a dedicated audio engineer, specialty optics, all pulled from our network of Pacific Northwest collaborators. We scope that in on the intro call so what shows up on the day matches the event.
Multi-camera switching to YouTube, LinkedIn, Vimeo, or your platform of choice. Guided walkabouts, all-day presentation streams, and in-studio broadcasts from our downtown Seattle space.
We're based in Seattle and cover events throughout the Pacific Northwest including Tacoma, Bellevue, Portland, and surrounding areas. For events outside the region, we handle travel logistics and crew sourcing nationwide.
Our standard event setup uses 2 to 3 cameras with operators, plus unmanned angles when the venue allows. This gives us enough coverage to produce multi-angle edits of presentations and capture audience reactions, B-roll, and interviews simultaneously.
We recommend booking at least 3 to 4 weeks ahead for standard events. Large conferences or multi-day events should book 6 to 8 weeks out so we can plan crew, equipment, and logistics properly.
That depends on your needs. Options range from organized raw footage with copyright ownership, to first-pass selects with color and audio cleanup, to fully produced highlight reels and presentation videos. We'll recommend a deliverable package based on how you plan to use the content.
