Interviews

Recording personalized words for now and the future

Service Details

From experiences to knowledge, everyone has something to tell. While the words themselves may be interesting, for the fullest impact, these words work best when joined with the voice and image of someone who matters. We at watched.live want to help you record these words; to impart knowledge, show off a product, or pass on knowledge to future generations.

In the case of an interview, this may be done either while broadcasting live, or recording the footage first and editing later. One benefit of doing a live broadcast is this allows you to interact with viewers, taking questions from those watching on line. watched.live can accommodate either style. If you wish to edit the footage on your own for content and duration, we offer the raw camera video from all of the shooting cameras (availability subject to package). We also will do a full length edit of the entire interview, either in conjunction with the live broadcast, or simply to polish up an interview for later consumption.

We would love to see what you dream up.

FAQ (frequently asked questions)

  • Do we need to worry about microphones?

    watched.live will provide the specified number of microphones for each given package if requested. The individual microphones may be lapel, over the ear, or a standard hand held/mic stand variation based on your needs. We can work with you if you wish to provide your own microphones.

  • Will we have access to all of the recordings?

    For the live broadcasts, we will retain the video for 5 year on our video host. If you had us simulcast the video on your own personal Facebook or YouTube channel, you will always have access to that.

    Each of our interview packages comes with the raw camera footage from all cameras provided. We will retain this footage for at least 1 year after the recording if you loose your copy and need to repurchase.

  • What days are you available?

    If not claimed for another event, we are available for hire every Monday through Saturday other than Christmas and Easter.

  • How far in advance do you take reservations?

    For Monday through Friday, you may reserve us up to 18 months in advance. For Saturdays, we do not take reservations more than 4 months in advance to allow for weddings with shorter engagement periods.

  • Are you able to stream videos we provide?

    As long as the video isn't under copyright protections that are enforced by social media, we will be either to stream video either directly, or in conjunction with being played before a live audience by sharing the HDMI connection going to the projector or TV used in the venue. This will give us the highest possible video quality.
