Before I started my professional music career, I was a corporate buyer while moonlighting as a musician, so I am very familiar with the requirements and decorum of the corporate world.

ProEvent Video
ProEvent Video
Multi-city
ProEvent Video provides professionally managed event video and photography through a vetted local professional network in major U.S. event markets. Local videographers and photographers handle on-site capture, while ProEvent centrally manages planning, production oversight, editing, and final delivery to ensure consistent quality from market to market. We support corporate events, conferences, trade shows, activations, and live experiences from pre-production planning through final post-production. Services include conference and keynote coverage, trade show and in-booth video, social media content, interviews and customer testimonials, event photography, executive portraits, and branded photo and video booth experiences. Every project begins with the client’s brief. We align on goals, shot priorities, and deliverables in advance, coordinate the appropriate local professional for the assignment, and oversee production to keep the project organized, on brand, and on schedule. Because our model uses experienced local professionals rather than flying production teams from market to market, clients benefit from strong local talent, reduced travel costs, and one consistent point of contact managing the entire process. Final deliverables can include highlight reels, recap videos, social clips, event photography galleries, executive and team portraits, slideshows, branded content assets, and other post-event media for marketing, PR, internal communications, sales, and future promotion.
