Live Social Media Event Coverage

Real-time social media coverage of live events extends their impact to audiences far larger than just those that were able to attend.

Live streamed video, photography, attendee interviews, roving reports, long-form copy, polls, and dedicated comment monitoring and response all provide opportunities to reach marketing targets on multiple social media channels with the most compelling content a company or organization is likely to generate. Social media walls, live tweeting, geotagging, and hashtag monitoring can turn event attendees into brand ambassadors to the world at large.

Why doesn't every organization provide live social media coverage of their events?

Creating quality live coverage requires people and skills that marketing departments often are not staffed to provide. Since live events are already "all hands" happenings, finding available specialists in-house during the production of a live event can be difficult or impossible.

CEA Marketing provides social media coverage of live events leaving marketing managers and departments free to focus on the event itself.

We assemble a customized event team with the right number of people, the right skills, and the right equipment to produce the type of coverage needed. CEA Marketing's Live Social Media Event Coverage teams are professional photographers, videographers, photo editors, event reporters, directors, and producers using professional grade cameras, microphones, broadcasting equipment, and editing tools. We prepare them to handle unforeseen events like equipment failure, power availability, network redundancy, and event schedule changes to ensure they can capitalize on their one shot to get the right shot. We'll even dress them in corporate or event gear to help create a professional image for the event itself.

For live event coverage, slow is the same as stopped so our content creation team generates enough content to ensure continuous energetic event coverage for a more fully engaged audience. At the event, our team produces and streams live videography, photography, short reports, long-form copy, polls, geotagging, and dedicated hashtag monitoring and response. Since multi-camera coverage increases the appeal of events, we are able to capture and combine multiple real-time streams into a single professional live production. Our team live tweets, posts photos, videos, and stories, and converses with the crowd in real-time. Capturing the elusive magic moments at a live event is much easier with our team tracking them down.

CEA Marketing isn't done when the event is over and the folding chairs are stowed. We can measure and report the social media metrics that show the impact of the event coverage.
We are also able to re-purpose the captured event media and create content to feed an inbound marketing campaign letting the event continue to generate leads and sales long after it has ended.
