Hybrid event production case studies
True Global Innovation Showcase Hybrid Event
We worked with True Global on their annual Innovation Showcase which highlights a small selection of the most exciting technology and innovations of the past 12 months. We live streamed the event content to the Slido event platform for virtual attendees, Q&A, polls and surveys. True also had remote speakers who presented via Zoom and we added branded graphics in vMix to elevate the production of the pitch event. Additionally, our videographers captured interviews and footage of the live production for a highlights video of the event.
We were enlisted to help PA Consulting on their 5-day global hybrid event, the ‘Ignite Design Festival’, which was live streamed across three locations in the UK and USA.
As a multi-site hybrid event, happening concurrently in the USA and UK, the main priority of the client was that the event was cohesive and slick across the three locations and with the remote contributors located around the world. The live production at all sites needed to work together to create a seamless hybrid event with a flawless and consistent live stream.
What do our hybrid event production clients think?
It was an absolute pleasure working with London Filmed. They were professional and friendly. They were patient whilst we figured out our requirements, flexible and delivered a fantastic conference on the day. Highly recommend!
The quality of the live stream was excellent. LF are professionals at the top of their game and everything is top spec. They were able to work collaboratively and responsively with the various stakeholders in the room, including the venue staff, which helped massively. They also sent over the video file of the live stream promptly after which was excellent. I also appreciated LF’s general attitude to work: stress-free but proactive and deeply capable.
London Filmed always provide an excellent service. They are thorough, have a good understanding of the events we deliver and always work to a high standard. They are great to work with.
London Filmed exceeded our expectations in every aspect of their service during our recent engagement with them for a day-long workshop. From the initial contact to the final delivery, they exhibited professionalism, patience, and a genuine eagerness to meet our needs.
Their team was exceptionally patient with our feedback and revisions, ensuring that the final outputs were nothing short of excellent, barring slight technical challenges that were mostly not their fault. The quality of both the videos and photos captured throughout the workshop was outstanding, capturing the essence of the event perfectly.
Fantastic team at London Filmed, always flexible and willing to assist with projects and deliver an incredible outcome. At each event that I’ve used their services, they have delivered to impeccable standards and I look forward to continuing our partnership with them

Hybrid event services FAQs
What is a hybrid event?
A hybrid event combines a live event and a virtual event. At a hybrid event, there will be an in-person audience and in-person speakers as well as a virtual audience and virtual speakers or contributors. The content from the in-person event is live streamed to an event platform for your online audience, and your online speakers will be managed virtually in sync with your event agenda for both audiences to enjoy.
How does a hybrid event differ from a virtual or in-person event?
A hybrid event combines both in-person and virtual elements, while a virtual event takes place entirely online and an in-person event takes place entirely in a physical location.
In a hybrid event, attendees and content contributors have the option to participate in person or remotely through a virtual platform. This allows for a wider audience reach and the ability to include international speakers.
Additionally, hybrid events require a different level of planning and technology as compared to in-person or virtual events. The event production team needs to ensure seamless integration between the physical and virtual components, such as incorporating interactive features for remote attendees and managing technical aspects like live streaming and video conferencing.
What is the difference between a hybrid event and a live streamed event?
A hybrid event combines a live event and a virtual event, so you will have both in-person and an online audience and you will have virtual speakers or contributors as well. The content from the in-person event will be live streamed to the online audience. In comparison, a live streamed event will not have any virtual speakers or contributors, it will simply be a live stream video of the in-person event or content to a channel of your choice for your online audience to view and interact with.
What technology is needed for a successful hybrid event?
The minimum technology needed for a successful hybrid event includes:
Reliable wired internet connection with high-speed bandwidth for streaming and video conferencing.
An event platform that can host virtual attendees and allow for interactive features such as live polls, Q&A sessions, and networking opportunities.
Reliable video conferencing software and high-quality web-cameras and microphones for remote speakers.
A projection system and/or TV screens for displaying virtual speakers and content to the in-person audience.
A return monitor displaying the virtual speakers in front of the moderator and/or panelists so they can speak to them naturally and to focus their energy towards the in-person audience.
Additionally, to increase engagement at your hybrid event, you might want to consider:
Mobile event apps that can provide attendees with personalised schedules, session details, and networking opportunities.
Audience engagement tools such as live polls and chat features that allow remote attendees to interact with in-person participants.
Hybrid event solutions are a great way to lower your carbon footprint and create a more sustainable and inclusive event. By including an online option for your audience and your speakers, you can dramatically reduce the need for carbon-intensive travel, ground transport, and hotel/venue energy. With consumer demand increasing for more sustainable approaches to business, hybrid and virtual events offer a solution that helps us reduce our carbon footprint and head towards net zero.
Do I have to create a different experience for the virtual and in-person audiences at a hybrid event?
Yes, creating a separate experience for your virtual and in-person audiences is one of the most important aspects to get right for a successful hybrid event. You need to treat your virtual audience as if they were attending a virtual event. Put yourself in their shoes and create an easy-to-navigate, enjoyable online experience for them. Your in-person audience can then be treated as delegates to an in-person event. You might want to connect the audiences via online polls, workshops, or networking so they have opportunities to make connections and feel part of the event community.
Do you help with venue sourcing for hybrid events?
Yes, with our hybrid event solutions, we can help with venue sourcing. We have partnerships with several venues in London that are well-equipped to facilitate live streaming and have connections in Europe and Northern America for international hybrid events. Find out more about selecting a hybrid event venue here.
Can you supply AV equipment and lighting for hybrid events?
Yes, our hybrid event solutions can include industry-leading AV equipment and support and we work with the venue and its technical team to ensure everything is covered. If your chosen venue does not have any AV equipment or team on site, we can provide everything you will need. We can also supply video walls, projectors, TVs, microphones, laptops, clickers, etc. which can all be added as optional itemised extras.
We will discuss your requirements when we speak through your event brief and your itemised quote will explain exactly what is included in your package.
What is the best platform for hybrid events?
The event platform you choose really depends on your event objectives and your audience engagement strategy. The pricing structure is a key consideration as some platforms work on a pricing structure depending on the number of attendees, whereas others work on a multiple-event contract basis. Other considerations are the support – especially if time zone differences are relevant, engagement tools, and analytics/data capabilities.
With years of experience producing hybrid events, we can walk you through the pros and cons of the event platforms to help you decide on the best platform for your event.
How much does a hybrid event cost?
There are many factors that influence the price of a hybrid event. We use our live streaming package as a base cost and can bolt on the additional crew and equipment needed to facilitate virtual contributors. The additional cost starts at £1,500 for shorter simpler hybrid events, with a starting price for hybrid event production at £5,000 (ex VAT). Our packages always include a comprehensive team with all the required equipment, a site visit, speaker briefings, and tech rehearsals.
Do you help with venue, set and stage design for hybrid events?
Our creative design team can help with a range of event branding for your hybrid event including venue, set, and stage design. They can also help to create an event brand identity that translates across the full digital and print media spectrum and help with digital event assets and marketing collateral.
What are the benefits of using green screen technology at a hybrid event?
A green screen enables chroma key compositing (or chroma keying) – a visual effects technique typically applied in video or post-production to seamlessly merge two images or streams together based on their hue. The colour green doesn’t match skin tones, so it is successfully picked up as background and doesn’t cause a ‘hole’ in your image.
Using a green screen allows you to completely control the background of your image, which can be manipulated in any way you wish. This creates a broadcast-quality look and feel to your presentations and events. We’ve discussed the benefits of using a green screen at your event in our Insights blog ‘Green Screens at Hybrid Events: Everything You Need To Know’.
