At Mogador Studios, the realization of a live event is based on a set of technologies mastered by Experts live. These technical equipment and systems used in our professional studios make it possible to guarantee a live event broadcast of quality.
PTZ cameras: Professional video capture
Les live productions of events in Paris by Mogador Studios rely on the use of PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) cameras. These motorized cameras, with a 360 degree angle, offer several technical advantages:
- Remote control of movements and framing
- Multiplication of viewing angles without physical intervention
- Resolution adapted to streaming requirements
For a Live performance standard, our studio generally deploys between 3 to 4 PTZ cameras, and up to 10 cameras in case of multi-sets simultaneously! This arrangement makes it possible to vary the shots and to ensure smooth transitions between the various shots.
A practical aspect to consider: a single operator can control all the cameras from the control room, which optimizes human resources while maintaining professional quality.
Audio equipment: for optimal sound quality
The audio component is a decisive element in broadcast your live streaming. Our studios integrate several types of audio equipment:
Microphones: There are different types, all designed to meet a specific type of production according to the configuration and technical needs of each event. The lavalier microphones are discreetly attached to the clothes of the speakers and guarantee a constant capture of the voice even when traveling. The gooseneck microphones are positioned in front of the speakers for targeted recording, ideal for static configurations such as podcasts and debates. The room microphones are placed in the space to capture the reactions of the public and restore the general atmosphere of the event, and even headband microphones in case of broadcasting sound with the public!
Mixing consoles : This equipment allows the processing of various sound sources in real time. Technicians can individually adjust each mic to balance sound levels and correct any anomalies during the broadcast.
Audio feedback : The speakers wear earpieces or have monitors that allow them to hear the exchanges clearly, thus facilitating natural communication.
Note that all our studios also have an adapted acoustic treatment. Absorbing and diffusing materials thus reduce reverberations and create a controlled sound environment, ideal for recordings, goodbye extraneous noises and echoes!
Lighting systems: Visibility and visual rendering
Along with sound, lighting is the essential component for the success of the final rendering of a Live production of an event in Paris. The standard device includes:
- Main lighting (key light): Primary source directed to the subject
- Secondary lighting (fill light): Attenuates the shadows created by the main light
- Contour lighting (back light): Creates a separation between subject and background
Current LED lighting systems offer significant technical advantages: precise adjustment of color temperature, intensity variation without color modification, and low heat release for the comfort of interveners.
Lighting configurations can be stored in presets created beforehand, allowing you to quickly switch from one environment to another according to the sequences of your live event broadcast.
Dissemination tools: Transmission and production
Broadcast a live event requires a complete technical channel. So, in order to best fulfill their mission, our Experts live use:
Encoders : These devices transform audio/video signals into digital streams compatible with streaming platforms. They optimize compression to maintain quality while adapting to bandwidth constraints.
Realization software : Applications like vMix or Tricaster and BlackMagic Design that allow you to:
- Manage the various sources (cameras, computers, pre-recorded media)
- Add titles, logos, and other graphics
- Control transitions between planes
- Integrate external presentations or videos
Multi-broadcast platforms : Services that allow simultaneous transmission to several destinations (YouTube, LinkedIn Live, Teams, proprietary platforms) from a single source.
Hybrid technologies: Integration of face-to-face and remote
Hybrid events combine present and distant audiences. This configuration requires specific equipment:
Return screens : Display remote participants, allowing on-site stakeholders to see and interact with them.
Video integration systems : Incorporate the flows of remote participants into the broadcast your live streaming with a consistent level of quality.
Interactive interfaces : Collect and filter questions or comments from the online audience and present them to the presenters.
This equipment ensures a consistent experience for all participants, regardless of how they participate.
Technical equipment and expertise
The realization of a Live performance professional is based on:
- Professional quality technical equipment
- Configurations adapted to the format of the event
- A technical team including director, sound engineer and video technicians
- Infrastructures allowing centralized control of all systems
Mogador Studios has four film sets in Paris, equipped with the technologies described above. Our installations make it possible to carry out various types of live production and events in Paris, from interviews to conferences to round tables.
For us, a live event broadcast quality, it is above all the combination of adapted equipment and the technical expertise of our operators who implement them!
