Captioning live meetings seems to be the most sought after skill that our customers have asked for this past month. Some meetings are broadcast in English and some are broadcast in Spanish with English captions. We use some unique tools and tricks to allow our customers to specify font style size and color as well as the background behind the captions. It all works very smoothly with our crews at the controls, but the technical underpinnings of getting it done ...

We did a little math this month and discovered that we have produced and live streamed more government meetings for the State of California than any other contractor. Over the past two years alone that encompasses more than 300 days of broadcasts and this year isn’t over yet.

We make it look easy. To top the month of June off we were notified that we were competitively selected to provide video, audio, streaming and film production services on a statewide ...

The five minute PSA is intended to help raise funds for a new War Memorial for the northern California region. These folks are putting their hearts into it and we are proud to have been asked to support their efforts. We have also been engaged in meetings with the City and County of San Francisco to help define a ...
