    Sound is a critical component in an online production especially live events. If the sound is not audible, then the event/webinar will not be in anyway effective. While in most occasions sound issues may be arising from the participants computer or gadget, the worst case will be the participants not hearing the speakers voice at all.

    That’s why sound engineer plays a big role here.

    #2 Director

    The Director monitors the speakers/participants during a livestream and switches between different screens as each one of them speaks. The responsibility of the director will vary based on the kind of livestream being broadcasted live. For instance, if it’s an live event and there are 3 cameras, the director will be the one calling shorts as needed from the camera persons.

    It’s important to have many directors for big events.

    #3 Live Support

    During a live event, or premiere, there is a need for someone to provide real time feedback to questions or concerns being raised by participants. Among these could be problems with sound, or video e.t.c.

    Also, live support is needed for events that are translated to other languages based on those attending.

    #4 Video Producer/Editor

    A video producers or editor in this context task is to record the livestream and save it offline. The recorded stream can later be edited and shared on various platforms in bits.

    The video producer also oversees the overall production and guides the director on other post-production needs. The producer is involved with the management of the project at hand.

    #5 Script Writing

    In rare occasions, scripting is needed. Most of the content in the videos that are streamed online are prepared by the presenter. This means that the have all the information, the only thing they need is technical services.

    You many need other guys to help depending on the how big the event will be and the budget your client is offering.
