Quick answer

What is an event recap video? An event recap video is a short highlight film, usually one to two minutes, that captures the keynotes, the crowd, the exhibit hall and the networking at a conference, convention or trade show. Organizers use it to thank attendees, show sponsors their return, and promote next year’s event to the people who missed this one.

A one to two minute event highlight video with the energy of the room, key speakers and the moments people talk about afterward.

Best for: conferences, conventions, annual meetings

Booth traffic, product demos and real conversations with attendees. It pairs naturally with our tradeshow photography, so exhibitors leave with stills and motion from one crew.

Best for: exhibitors, sponsors, product launches

Exhibitor and booth work

Trade show video production and exhibitor booth recaps

For an exhibitor, a trade show booth video proves the investment. It shows the people back at the office what the floor really looked like, and it gives sales and marketing something to use for the rest of the year.

  • Booth traffic and the energy of the show floor
  • Product demos and real conversations with attendees
  • Sponsor and partner moments worth sharing
  • A recap your team can show leadership after the show

Made for phones

Vertical event videos for Instagram, LinkedIn and TikTok

Most attendees will watch your recap on a phone. Alongside the widescreen edit, our team can deliver a vertical version sized for social media, so your marketing team can post it without reformatting a thing.

  • Vertical 9 by 16 cut of your recap for reels and stories
  • 30 and 60 second teasers for ads and email
  • Speaker and sponsor clips for LinkedIn
  • Files ready to post the day they arrive

Interviews and testimonials

Interview and testimonial video production at your event

Your event is the one time your speakers, sponsors and happiest attendees are all in the same building. Our team sets up a quiet spot away from the noise of the floor and records short interviews you can drop into the recap or use on their own as testimonials.

We also produce dedicated testimonial interview sessions on site, from a single interview room at the convention center to a full day of scheduled interviews with your customers or leadership.

If you are also running a headshot station, it pairs naturally with interviews, since attendees are already relaxed and camera ready.

  • Attendee testimonials for next year’s marketing
  • Sponsor and exhibitor interviews
  • Speaker soundbites for social media
  • Leadership messages for internal teams

Live streaming

Event live streaming and hybrid event production

Not everyone can make it to the venue. Our event live streaming services carry your keynotes, general sessions and panels to remote attendees, members and stakeholders in real time, wherever they are watching.

Because the stream is recorded, the same coverage becomes on demand session content and source footage for your recap video. That is why hybrid event production is one of the most efficient ways we know to get more from a single program.

What live streaming can include

  • Keynotes and general sessions streamed in real time
  • Panels and breakouts for remote attendees
  • Recorded streams for on demand viewing
  • Coverage that also feeds your recap video

Deliverables

What you receive from our event video team

When planners look for a conference videographer or a corporate event videographer, what they usually need from event videography is not hours of raw footage. It is a short, finished piece they can share while the event is still fresh. Here is what that typically includes.

Event highlight recap

A polished one to two minute recap of your conference, convention or trade show, paced for sharing.

Teaser and sizzle cuts

Shorter 30 and 60 second versions for social ads, email campaigns and your event website.

Vertical social versions

A 9 by 16 cut of your recap sized for Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and stories.

Interview soundbites

Short on camera comments from attendees, speakers or sponsors, woven into the recap or delivered on their own.

Booth and sponsor content

Exhibitor focused edits that show sponsors exactly what their investment looked like on the floor.

Photography from the same program

Add convention photography and both crews work from one run of show, with one point of contact.


Why it pays off

How organizers put a recap video to work

A recap video earns its keep long after the show closes. These are the ways we see clients use them most often.

  • Selling next year’s sponsorships. Sponsors decide faster when they can see the crowd they will reach.
  • Driving early registration. A short recap on the registration page shows prospects what they missed.
  • Thanking attendees and speakers. A post event email with the recap keeps the goodwill going.
  • Selling booth space. Exhibitors see the traffic and energy of the floor before they commit.
  • Reporting to leadership and boards. Two minutes of video tells the story better than a slide of numbers.
  • Feeding social media all year. Teasers and vertical cuts give your marketing team months of content.

FAQ: What planners ask about event recap videos

What does an event video production company do?

An event video production company plans, films and edits your conference, convention or trade show so it can be used long after the doors close. That usually means a recap video, short social cuts, interviews and sponsor content, all planned around your run of show so nothing important is missed.

What is an event recap video?

An event recap video is a short highlight film, usually one to two minutes, that captures the feel of your conference, convention or trade show. It shows the keynotes, the crowd, the exhibit floor and the networking, so people who attended can relive it and people who did not can see what they missed.

How long should a conference recap video be?

From what we have seen over the years, one to two minutes holds attention best for the main recap. Most of the recaps on this page fall right in that range. Many clients also ask for 30 and 60 second versions for social media, ads and email.

Can you deliver vertical video for social media?

Yes. Alongside the widescreen recap, our team can deliver a vertical 9 by 16 version sized for Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and stories, plus shorter teaser cuts.

Can you include interviews with attendees, speakers or sponsors?

Yes. A few short interviews add real credibility to a recap. Our team can set up a quiet corner for quick soundbites during breaks, or capture longer testimonial interviews if you need them for marketing.

Do you produce trade show booth videos for exhibitors?

Yes. Trade show booth videos show traffic, demos and conversations so exhibitors can prove the value of the show to their own leadership. Booth video pairs well with our tradeshow photography when you want both from one crew.

Can we book photography and video together?

Yes, and it is the arrangement we recommend. Both crews work from your run of show, so nothing important is missed, and you have one point of contact for the entire event.

How soon will we receive our recap video?

Every event is different, so delivery times are set with each client. Send us your event details and we will talk through a delivery schedule that fits your plans, including a quick turnaround for a closing session or post event email if you need one.

How many revisions are included?

Two rounds of revisions are included with every recap, so your team can fine tune the edit before it goes out to attendees and sponsors.

Do you offer live streaming for conferences and hybrid events?

Yes. We offer conference live streaming for keynotes, general sessions and panels, so remote attendees can watch in real time. The recorded stream can also become on demand session content and footage for your recap. Tell us about your venue and audience and we will plan the stream around your program.

Do you produce event videos outside Texas?

Yes. Our team produces event recap videos for conventions, conferences and trade shows nationwide, with the same core production team and the same workflow on every project.

How is event video production priced?

Pricing is based on hours of coverage and the deliverables you choose, such as recap length, teaser cuts, vertical versions and interviews. You receive one clear number up front, with no surprise add ons.

Why does experience matter for event video?

Since 1987 we have worked the floor at conventions and conferences across the country. That experience means our team knows where the energy will be before it happens, which moments matter to your sponsors, and how to get the shot without getting in the way of your attendees.
