First Impact Live · 5 min
A corporate livestream is ready when the objective, audience, platform, speakers, content, connectivity, redundancy and recording plan have all been confirmed and rehearsed. Use the checklist below as a planning document, not as an on-the-day task list.
Communication
- What is the objective of this communication?
- Who must see it, and where are they?
- What should the audience do or understand afterwards?
- How damaging would a failure be?
Audience and platform
- Public, private or access-controlled?
- Which platform does the audience already use?
- One destination or several?
- Do international viewers have access to that platform?
Speakers and content
- Confirmed speaker list, with who is in the room and who is remote
- Final presentations, videos and playback media received in advance
- Graphics package: titles, lower thirds, holding slides
- Running order with timings and hand-offs
- Speaker checks and rehearsal scheduled
Technical
- Verified upload bandwidth and a backup connection
- Camera and audio plan for the room and the stream
- Redundancy appropriate to the risk level
- Monitoring of the outgoing stream during the broadcast
- Recording plan, including isolated recordings if needed
After the broadcast
- Who receives the recording, and in what format?
- Subtitles, translations or highlights required?
- Where will the content live afterwards?
