TM Productions
Multi-camera live streams for conferences, galas, churches and graduations, with a crew of at least five on every one.
From $6,500 with a five-person crew and a tech rehearsal the day before.
Recent work
Almost always the audio comes through thin, the venue Wi-Fi gives out halfway through the keynote, or one camera sits on a wide shot for 90 minutes until the people at home close the tab. We plan for all three, run a full tech rehearsal the day before and send a private test stream before your doors open, so you get to actually be at your event.
Hit play on either one to watch the actual broadcast, and the case studies walk through how we ran each day.
LIVE BROADCAST · ALLENTOWN, PA
The night Life Church’s founding pastors handed the church to its new lead pastors, we broadcast the whole service from Life Church Allentown to six Life Church sites and everyone watching on YouTube.

LIVE STREAM · MANHATTAN
We streamed Unscripted live from The Malin Flatiron to viewers all over the US, ran the audio mix ourselves and kept close shots on the panelists and the reactions around the room.
Read the case study ›On a lot of streams the person switching cameras is also running the slides and riding the audio, and you can see it every time a slide shows up late. We split those jobs across three seats and put at least two camera operators on top, so every stream starts with five people, each with one job.
CREW CALL
05 MINIMUM UP TO 11
01A1 · AUDIO
On headphones the whole show, mixing every mic and listening to exactly what the people at home hear.
02GFX · GRAPHICS
Your slides, your logo and a lower third for every speaker, sent to the stream and the room’s screens at once.
03TD · DIRECTOR
Calls the shots and cuts between cameras live, so the stream’s always on whoever’s talking.
04 · 05CAM 1 · CAM 2
At least two, usually one holding the stage wide and one tight on the speaker.
Bigger rooms get more camera operators, up to eight cameras and a crew of 11, which covers graduations.
We can put the live cameras and your slides on the venue’s screens too, off the same cameras and graphics as your stream.
LIVE STREAM
Cameras locked on the table and another roaming wherever the conversation goes, a broadcast operator on the switcher, wireless mics for every speaker and a backup for the internet.
MULTI-CAMPUS · LIVE BROADCAST
A packed room and a lot of people watching from home, all getting the same service.
NEW YORK CITY
Closed streets, security on every block and tight load-ins aren’t new to us.
EVENT COVERAGE
The flagship events your members plan their year around, and exactly the work we want more of.
Tony Ellis Martinez founded TM Productions in 2017, and his work has passed 1.3 billion views across platforms. Today it’s a crew of about a dozen, dressed for the boardroom and running the day from load-in to wrap.
Check your date ›Venue Wi-Fi is where most streams get into trouble, so we never count on it, and audio gets planned before cameras on every job, because nobody has ever said “great video” about something they couldn’t hear.
The full program recording after the event, plus every camera’s file if you want them for marketing.
We’re the video side of A/V: the cameras, the switcher, the graphics, the stream and the feeds to your screens, plugged into whatever sound and screens are already in the room.
What we bring
What stays with your A/V company or venue
We work off their board and their screens, and if their engineer is mixing the room we take a clean feed, so you’re not paying two people for one job.
Plenty of hotels, churches and schools do, and if all you need on top is cameras, a stream and IMAG, you don’t need a separate A/V company.
We also work as the broadcast crew on someone else’s show, on your call sheet and under your name.
A lot of organizations book a broadcast team for the stream and a separate video team for marketing footage, which means two invoices for the same eight hours in the same room. Every camera of ours records on its own drive while the program goes out live, so you walk away with enough to cut a recap and a run of social clips, and those edits get quoted after you’ve seen the footage.
From$6,500
That covers two cameras, the five-person crew and the tech rehearsal the day before.
Your exact number comes down to five things, the same five we walk through on the planning call.
Every camera past the first two is added to the quote, and overnight travel to NYC, Baltimore or D.C. goes on its own line at cost. A signature and a 50% deposit lock the date, and the other half is due 7 days before the event.
If it happens in a room and people need to watch it from somewhere else, from a 12-seat roundtable up to a graduation, we’ve probably built a setup for it.
Keynotes, breakouts and general sessions, with names on screen and the slides cut in.
Annual meetings, member shows and award programs for members who can’t travel.
Company meetings with people in the room and people dialing in, including remote speakers on Zoom.
Streamed with each speaker’s name on screen and a clean recording for the public record.
Conversations that jump from person to person, with a director cutting to whoever’s talking.
Award moments and honoree speeches, with a roaming camera on the room’s reaction.
Easter, Christmas, ordinations and anniversaries, at campuses that seat up to 2,000.
IMAG on the venue’s screens for the back rows and a camera on the stage for every name called.
Annual meetings, fundraising programs and community forums for supporters who couldn’t be there.
For boroughs, townships, school districts and authorities across the Lehigh Valley and Berks County, set up as a standing service so the same crew and the same setup show up for every meeting.
Three cameras on the dais, the public comment podium and the whole room, with the agenda item and each speaker’s name on screen.
Your YouTube channel, website player or cable access channel, with the recording to the clerk the same night and a captioned copy within 2 business days.
A clean feed from your chamber’s mic system, with our mixer on headphones through public comment.
$2,500 a meeting for up to 3 hours plus setup with a three-person crew, a written quote the same day, a certificate of insurance and a W-9. A purchase order holds the date with no deposit, and we invoice after the meeting at net 30.
Check your date or call 484-860-0276 with how many meetings a year you’re looking to cover.
We’re based in the Lehigh Valley and stream from Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, Reading, Lancaster, Harrisburg and Scranton out to Philadelphia, New Jersey, New York City, Baltimore and D.C. We’re in the room the day before for the tech rehearsal anyway, so a long drive never turns into the crew racing the clock, and travel’s itemized in the quote.
Drive times on the map are approximate, from our Lehigh Valley home base.
You send the date, the venue and where the stream needs to go, and the Live Stream Planning Guide lands in your inbox. On the planning call we ask about the one moment that can’t be missed and build the camera plan around it, your written quote goes out that day, and a signature and a 50% deposit put the date on our calendar. The crew loads in the day before for the tech rehearsal, and after the show you get the program recording and the footage.
Packages start at $6,500, which covers two cameras, the five-person crew and the tech rehearsal the day before. Extra cameras, the audio setup, the venue’s internet and travel to NYC, Baltimore or D.C. move the number, and you’ll have it in writing the same day as your planning call.
Because each of those jobs needs somebody’s full attention, and when one person covers three of them you see it as a late slide, a hot mic or a shot of an empty podium. The one seat that can come off is audio, when your A/V company’s engineer is already mixing the room.
Every stream starts with five people and builds up to eight cameras and a crew of 11, which covers keynotes, galas, church services and graduations with IMAG. A pro sports broadcast or a show for tens of thousands isn’t our lane, and we’ll tell you that straight.
The director switches to the backup connection we set up before doors, a Starlink dish or a bonded cellular hotspot depending on the building, and every camera records to its own drive either way.
Yes on both. You get the full program recording, which is the version your viewers watched, and every camera also records on its own in full quality, so you’ve got clean angles of every speaker for editing later.
YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn Live, Vimeo and Zoom, including webinars where people register first, or a private link for members or employees.
Yes, through a Zoom webinar with registration, a private link or a members-only page you already have.
Yes. Remote speakers come in through Zoom so the online audience sees them, the room can too if your screens and speakers are set up for it, and we test with each one before the event.
We’ll figure that out with an upload speed test at the venue, and if it comes back low we plan around it with Starlink or bonded cellular, which is already in your quote.
Yes, and on our crew that’s one person’s whole job. Send the slides and the speaker list ahead of time and it’ll all be built before the event.
Yes. Every camera records in full quality, so a recap or social clips come out of footage you already paid for, quoted after the event.
Six weeks out is best, because the tech rehearsal and the five-person crew take that long to plan, but send your date as soon as you have it. It’s locked once the agreement is signed and the 50% deposit is in, and the other 50% is due 7 days before the event.
Yes, regularly. We’re based in Macungie, we work in Manhattan regularly, and travel’s itemized in the quote.
Usually not. YouTube and Vimeo play in any browser, and a Zoom webinar just needs the link from the registration email.
Yes, both ways. We work alongside your A/V company off their board and screens, event producers bring us in as their broadcast crew, and the big room gear like projectors, LED walls, PA speakers and stage lighting stays with them.
Show the world.
Send the date and the venue, and we’ll set up a short planning call and get you a written quote the same day.
The Live Stream Planning Guide hits your inbox right away: fifteen quick questions about the room, the audio, who’s watching and the one moment we can’t miss. Fill in what you know, skip the rest, and we’ll follow up within one business day, usually a lot sooner. We use your details to plan your event and that’s it, so you won’t end up on a mailing list.
If you’d rather talk it through, call 484-860-0276.
