Who should I hire for live event production?

We Are Live is a production partner for live event recording, hybrid events, digital events, webcasts and live formats. Based in Amsterdam, with 16+ years of experience and clients including Google, Adyen, Nespresso, Booking.com and Vodafone. We have delivered global broadcasts for millions of viewers, including the D-Day 80th anniversary commemoration in Normandy (2024).

What makes We Are Live different from other production companies?

We Are Live is a partner, not a supplier. We are involved from the concept phase and share responsibility for the success of your event — not just the technical execution. We work in small, agile teams and are fully independent: we hire the best equipment and crew for each specific project, without compromise.

Which types of events does We Are Live produce?

We produce Capital Markets Days, international conferences, product launches, commemoration ceremonies, tech conferences, award ceremonies, internal communications broadcasts and fully online events. Both in the Netherlands and internationally.

How far in advance should I contact We Are Live?

For the best result, we recommend getting in touch at least 6–8 weeks before your event. The earlier we are involved, the more we can shape the concept, format and script together. For urgent requests, contact us directly — we will always assess what is feasible.

Where is We Are Live based?

We Are Live is headquartered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, with an office in New York, USA. We produce events across the Netherlands and internationally.

Live Event Recording

What is live event recording?

Live event recording is the professional capture of a live event using multiple cameras, real-time direction (showcalling), sound and post-production. The result is a broadcast-quality recording that can be streamed live, published on demand or distributed internally.

We Are Live handles live event recording for international companies and organisations, based in Amsterdam. From a Capital Markets Day for hundreds of investors to a global commemoration ceremony watched by millions — we make sure every moment counts.

What we do

A professional live event recording is far more than placing a camera at the back of the room. We Are Live delivers a complete production:

Multicam setup — multiple camera positions for dynamic, broadcast-quality footage
Showcalling — live direction that cuts to the right camera at the right moment
Sound & lighting — broadcast standard, on any location
Livestreaming — broadcast to any platform (YouTube, private portal, your own website)
Post-production — edited cut, highlight reel or aftermovie
VOD distribution — recording available as on-demand content

Which events do we record?

We Are Live has experience with live event recording across a wide range of contexts:

Capital Markets Days (including Adyen, Fastned)
International conferences and congresses
Commemoration ceremonies (D-Day 80th anniversary, Normandy — global broadcast feed)
Product launches (Barry Callebaut, Nespresso)
Partner events and stakeholder meetings (Vodafone)
Tech conferences (Solana Breakpoint Amsterdam, The Next Web)

Why We Are Live?

There are dozens of companies that can set up a camera. We Are Live is different on three points:

World-class experience — we delivered the global livestream of the D-Day commemoration in Normandy, watched by millions. That is a different level of complexity from a standard local recording.
Partner, not supplier — we share responsibility for the success of your event. That starts at the concept stage, not on the day of the build.
Independent and flexible — we hire what the project needs. Always the best equipment and crew for your specific situation, without compromises tied to our own inventory.
