Live streaming + event AV · SF Bay AreaBroadcast-quality live streaming and event AV, delivered the way a ninja works: quiet, fast and seamless. NinjAV is the live event team of Urban Samurai Creative, and our crew comes from live TV: our camera operators shoot live for the NFL, NBA, ESPN, CNN and MSNBC, and we bring real broadcast cameras to your event. One crew runs your room and your stream for keynotes, town halls, panels and fireside chats in San Francisco, Palo Alto, Mountain View and Pleasanton.
Many event streams are shot on small robotic cameras run from a laptop. We come from live TV broadcast. Your event is shot on real broadcast TV cameras, by camera operators who shoot live for the NFL, NBA, ESPN, CNN and MSNBC.
Your remote audience sees the difference: sharp, well-framed shots that follow every speaker, clean cuts between angles, and a picture that looks like your brand, not a video call. Live TV has no second take, and we run your event the same way.
We run every technical piece of the event, from the microphone to the live stream. One crew, one plan, one person to call.
Professional sound systems and microphones for presenters and panels, with an audio engineer on the board for the whole program.
Multi-camera coverage of the stage and speakers, run by operators who have shot live news.
A technical director cuts the program live, so every speaker change and slide lands on the right shot.
Streaming to Zoom, Teams or YouTube for remote attendees, plus a recording our parent studio can edit into highlights.
Live streaming is where we shine. Most events hire one company for the room AV and another for the stream, and the problems live in the handoff between them. With NinjAV the same crew mics the speakers, shoots the stage, cuts the program and sends it to Zoom, Teams or YouTube, so the people watching remotely get the same event as the people in their seats.
We stay behind the scenes so you can focus on your message. Our crew has spent 20 years in live television and event AV. We load in quietly, set up fast, test every element before doors open and keep backups in place. Your guests notice the event, not the gear.
