Remotely-Recorded Event Videos
Creating videos for your event and adding sponsor and exhibitor value is now safe, fast and affordable with Remote Directed Video (RDV).
As everyone moves their conferences and events online, revenue streams from exhibitors and sponsorships are at serious risk.
Video is a valuable marketing asset that can be very impactful for you, your sponsors and exhibitors, and with Remoted Directed Video creating high-impact videos for your event is easier than ever.
Why Use Remote Video as a Benefit for Sponsors and Exhibitors?
The COVID crisis has wiped out many of the traditional ways event organizers have offered value to sponsors and exhibitors at their events.
Those revenue streams traditionally depended on exhibit space, food and beverage events, conference bags and lanyards, and other opportunities for exhibitors and sponsors to promote themselves. Most of those opportunities don’t exist in the virtual conference world.
Remote video capture offers a safe and easy way to demonstrate alignment between you and your sponsors and exhibitors, and create content that helps promote them and your event at the same time.
Restore Event Value
Remote Directed Video is an easy and affordable option for providing exhibitors and sponsors with professional-grade video that they can use before, during, and after your conference to promote their products and services, and cement their affiliation with you.
When used as part of an overall marketing medium for events, video can restore event revenue streams, and be very impactful for you and your sponsors and exhibitors. At the end of the day, each exhibitor or sponsor receives a video asset that is actually valuable to them.
Safe, Fast and Affordable
The RDV event video service is designed to be safe, fast, and affordable.
With remote video capture, there are no film crews, no travel costs, no set-up or tear-down costs and very little overhead – making it easy to restore value for sponsors and exhibitors.
Every element of the service is touch-free. Sponsor and exhibitor coordination, shooting, editing, and reviewing are all done online, so there is no risk of exposure at any point in the process, and is convenient for your sponsors and exhibitors as well.

Our partners were very pleased with the videos. Thoughtcast Media was super easy to work with, and the whole process had little impact on staff resources. We definitely plan to work with them again.
