#### Livestream Production for Publishing Company
**The Project**

**The Review** — Oct 22, 2020

**Feedback Summary**: Consistently producing high-quality work, 3rd & Lamar has proven to be capable, creative, and skilled in the livestreaming field. They also bring unique ideas and their level of care for their work is immeasurable. They demonstrate a seamless partnership despite challenges brought by COVID-19.
""They've got great ideas so we can definitely lean into their creativity and listen to their expertise."
"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

We're a monthly magazine in Austin, Texas. I'm the events director and I handle all of our forward-facing activities such as events from court sessions, anything that we've got going on in the Austin market. 

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with 3rd & Lamar?

Due to COVID-19, we had to put all live events on pause, even though we had an incredible lineup this year, which were all canceled indefinitely. However, we still wanted to reach our audience in a creative way and that’s when the idea of livestreams came to us.

We tested doing the livestreaming on our own and though we got great audience engagement from that, the quality wasn’t the best. In the end, we needed to find a partner that could have expertise in both video and audio production as well as knowledge on livestreaming.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

The 3rd & Lamar team takes care of our livestreaming events. They handle the setup, recording, streaming, audio mixing, and everything else. After we livestream our events, they spearhead our post-production efforts and provide us with a condensed version of our events that we can usually use on our other advertising efforts.

3rd & Lamar usually features highlights of the performances and sometimes we use it to promote our upcoming events that are typically going to be held in the near future.

For a specific example, we have an event called Front Porch Sessions, which is a livestream concert. We take care of the promotion, book the venue, and they help us show it on our Facebook and YouTube channels.

What is the team composition?

I collaborate closely with Nick (CEO & Co-Founder) and Tony (Head of Production & Co-Founder). Tony handles all of the logistics on site. He checks how many cameras are going to be in the event and also takes care of the sound engineering side. On the day of the event, he also takes care of any issues that come up.

Meanwhile, Nick takes care of anything else about the partnership and overall logistics.

How did you come to work with 3rd & Lamar?

They reached out to us about working together. We did need a video team, but that was before COVID-19 happened. Since covering and shooting our events were not possible, those project ideas never came to fruition. Then, when we developed ideas for livestreaming events, that’s when we revisited our conversation and started chatting about a possible partnership. 

How much have you invested with them?

So far, we’ve spent over $50,000 already on our engagement. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started our partnership in June 2020 and it’s still ongoing. 

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

So far, we’ve seen 3rd & Lamar’s high-quality video productions and it’s all fantastic. Even though the streaming part is still a new area for us, they definitely meet all of our expectations and even exceed them. 

Our main focus is getting high-quality content in the streaming aspect and they’ve been doing that. They make sure we don’t experience any kind of buffering or lag time for the viewers. They also consistently ensure that we have our logo in every production.

How did 3rd & Lamar perform from a project management standpoint?

We communicate via email, and that’s my preferred method. We also have phone calls and they're great. Overall, they are very communicative which is what we need since we deal with several artists and things can be different each time. 

They always give us everything we need and, timeline-wise, they have been excellent. They also do frequent sound checks and video checks that assure us of the quality we will show to our viewers.

We also provide them with a run of the show and then they send back some tweaks so that we can be ready to roll the next time. Above all, 3rd & Lamar are open to any questions we have.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The most impressive thing is that their work speaks for itself. They produce fantastic work. Most of all, they are really easy going, professional, and give us the things that we need. 

We also like that Tony gives flair to our events through his creativity. It’s exactly what we need since we are a magazine and we constantly need someone who thinks out of the box.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Perhaps, they could improve on the patience part, since we move at such a fast pace and it’s hard for us to get things back to them immediately. We usually have so many projects at a specific time so we need some consideration on that part. However, we appreciate their sense of urgency, as well.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They follow our direction. They’ve got great ideas so we can definitely lean into their creativity and listen to their expertise. They’ve been doing it for a long time so they know what works. To summarize, I highly recommend trusting them.

COO, DoStuff
- Industry: Media

- Client size: 11-50 Employees
- Review Type: Phone Interview

**The Review** — May 20, 2020

**Feedback Summary**: The work performed by 3rd & Lamar has satisfied all project stakeholders, helping them to get a program and revenue source off the ground that would otherwise have been unsustainable for the client on their own. Their team is very independent and intuitive, navigating complex requirements with ease.
"“Their team is excellent at establishing a goal and doing whatever they need to accomplish it.”
"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

We are a digital media company and I am the COO.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with 3rd & Lamar?

Our team was looking to develop and execute upon an affiliate program.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

Since we’re a media company, we have a lot of content and assets that we’re able to monetize and wanted to develop a program to monetize everything that wasn’t already being sold. 3rd & Lamar was in charge of everything from identifying partners that offered cost per acquisition deals and communicating with them to negotiate the rate to setting up the programs on our site and developing best practices for us to maximize affiliate links within our content.

What was the team composition?

We just work directly with one member of their team, which makes the relationship really easy to manage.

How did you come to work with 3rd & Lamar?

They were referred to our CEO and I was impressed with their expertise when I met with them, so we decided to bring them on.

How much have you invested with them?

In total, the project has cost about $20,000 so far through a commission-based system.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them around July 2019 and are continuing to partner together.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Qualitatively, they have been a huge help to us because we essentially had no functioning version of the program when we started working with them. The 3rd & Lamar team helped us to get something off the ground that we didn’t have the dedicated resources to be able to do, and that is something that will last and continue to provide us with revenue into the future.

How did 3rd & Lamar perform from a project management standpoint?

The communication around the project did get off to a little bit of a rough start, but since we’re a pretty small and scrappy company that may be more a testament to their skillset. We didn’t make their lives very easy at first, but they’ve done a great job of figuring out how to operate mostly autonomously get everything they need done without much other stakeholder input, which has been fantastic.

We used to do standing calls to make sure that everyone was on the same page and check in on the progress that we were making, but we’ve transitioned to mostly just using emails to communicate and our Asana for project management, which they integrated into smoothly.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Our company had pretty much ruled out ever working with contractors again before 3rd & Lamar because of how poorly difficult the engagements always were to manage. Nick (CEO) was able to navigate our complex company structure and make himself valuable almost immediately. In my experience, his ability to gather information about how we operate and establish an operation that essentially runs itself at this point is very rare.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Occasionally, our leads will go a little bit stagnant before we start to put more effort into outreach again. A slightly more proactive approach could go a long way in terms of helping us iterate upon things a little faster.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Give them the ability to do their job without a lot of bottlenecks. Their team is excellent at establishing a goal and doing whatever they need to accomplish it, so the best thing you can do is give them the tools to do that and then get out of the way.

**Feedback Summary**: The series of videos allowed the company to reach a wider audience, gaining new customers. 3rd & Lamar consistently communicates with the client to ensure a smooth workflow. The team is hard-working, creative, and easy to work with.
""I was impressed with the personal care and attention they give to my project, even though I am a small business."
"

**BACKGROUND**
Please describe your company and your position there.

Bee Free Yoga offers donation-based Vinyasa Yoga instruction, as well as guided meditation, and written content. We went from in-class instruction to virtual classes with the help of 3rd & Lamar! I am the owner/instructor.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
For what projects/services did your company hire 3rd & Lamar?

3rd & Lamar is in the process of filming 52 1-hr yoga classes and 52 audio guided meditation sessions.

What were your goals for this project?

I wanted my classes to be available to students everywhere. By broadening my reach, I hope to positively affect the body, hearts and minds of students... enriching the quality of their days. Online classes offer flexibility to practice from home, or while traveling, on the student's own schedule. I also wanted to have an archive of the 52 sets of offerings that I have created over the past few years.

**SOLUTION**
How did you select this vendor?

3rd & Lamar actually reached out to me to see if I was interested in live-stream or video-on-demand content, at a time when I had been planning to research this very topic! It was fortuitous and I'm so glad they reached out.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

We meet every 4 or 5 days at my home studio, and film the one hour yoga class and record the audio for the 25 min meditation. Tony brings all the lighting and equipment. His set up and break down is efficient, and the whole thing takes about 2 1/2hrs start to finish.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

Tony and Nick have been very responsive to my questions and communications. Their turn around time thus far has always been within the 5-7 day window they initially promised.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

I am already reaching more students virtually than I was able to attract locally to my in-person classes! It is so nice to have a larger reach but not have to drive around town, and set up and break down classrooms.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We work very well together! During the editing process, if I have things I want adjusted, Tony works with me patiently until we get all the levels just to my liking! After the first couple of videos/audio recordings, he had a good grasp of my general preferences and the process is getting more streamlined with every week.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I was impressed with the personal care and attention they give to my project, even though I am a small business. My recordings, I'm sure, are not as interesting as the varied and complex projects they often work on. It is a straightforward recording after all. However, they know that quality audio and video, so as not to distract from the content... the experience of the yoga, is equally important. So the attention to detail in the production makes the experience seamless!

Are there any areas for improvement?

Not that I can think of!

### Commonly Asked Questions

**How much do you charge for videos?**
Each project is custom, but here are 10 factors that affect price:

1. Scripting & Creative Development 
More time spent pitching, scripting, and storyboarding increases the upfront budget. However, thorough pre-production aligns the creative vision early, often saving money by reducing editing and post-production time.

2. Talent & Casting 
Costs rise when actors or voiceover artists are needed. Budgets also must account for usage rights, agent fees, and the support crew required to make them camera-ready.

3. Locations 
Filming in one location is cheaper than multi-location shoots. Using your own office is cheaper than renting studios. Budgets must also cover scouting, permits, insurance, and logistics.

4. Production Days 
Each day on set multiplies the cost of crew, gear, and rentals. Larger crews can sometimes be more cost-effective if their efficiency allows the production to wrap in fewer days.

5. Art Direction & Set Design 
Some productions require custom sets, furniture, and props. An art director is needed to manage the fabrication, rental, and design of these elements.

6. Crew Size 
Specialized roles add labor/logistical costs. While a smaller crew reduces the budget, it often limits production capabilities and increases the risk of error.

7. Specialization 
Niche requests like drone footage, underwater filming, or stunts require specialized equipment and certified experts. However, technology can save money — such as using remote monitoring to avoid client travel costs.

8. Timing 
The "Iron Triangle" applies: Pick 2 of High Quality, Fast Turnaround, or Low Budget. High quality delivered quickly will never be low budget.

9. Animation & Motion Graphics 
Visual effects and motion graphics add workload to post-production. Complex, frame-by-frame animation requires longer lead times.

10. Deliverables 
Maximizing footage for various platforms is efficient, but the volume and length of the final edits directly dictate the post-production scope and cost.

**What's the fastest way to get a production estimate?**
Here are 8 ways to help us price out your video if you don't know your exact budget:

1. References: Find examples of videos that match what you’re envisioning for your video. Then share those with us and we can reverse-engineer what those would cost to produce.

2. Priorities: Determine your must-have items versus your wish list items. 

3. Budget range: Even a budget range for the production is helpful in planning. Then we can share what’s possible at each end of the range.

4. Car brands: A simple metaphor can accelerate the budget discussion. “We’re thinking more along the lines of a Mercedes, not a Mazda.”

5. Timing: If you know the date that you need the video(s) in your hands to publish, then we can work backwards from there. This is a helpful constraint to know.

6. Deliverables: Outline the content you want (e.g. one 30-second edit, two 15-second edits in 9x16 aspect ratio, etc.). 

7. Usage: Convey the purpose of your video. The budget for an internal training video should be quite different from a national CTV ad campaign.

8. Benchmarks: If you paid $20,000 for a previous video, share the video so we have a frame of reference.

**Explain your process for producing testimonials**
There are 3 phases to our testimonial productions.

1. Pre-Production For Testimonials
Our planning process is guided by a creative brief, which outlines our client’s goals for the testimonial video(s), references that match what they envision for the content, talking points, and other pertinent information.

To develop the creative brief, we share this questionnaire with our clients that touches on all aspects of the project.

From there, we build a project timeline, coordinate with the interviewee(s) to schedule interviews, and begin interview prep. We also draft a tailored set of interview questions for our client’s approval. Lastly, we begin collecting creative assets and brand guidelines from the client to facilitate the editing process.

2. Filming Testimonials
For remote interviews, we guide the interviewee(s) through the set-up and share best practices to maximize the quality of the audio and footage.

For on-site interviews, our production team handles the end-to-end set-up, filming, and equipment takedown. We record all interview footage and supporting b-roll, if applicable.

Clients are welcome to join the interview sessions, but it’s optional. For clients who want to join the interviews remotely, we can accommodate those requests. More info here.

Within 48 hours after filming, we send our clients an interview transcript or stringout so the client can select their favorite soundbites.

3. Testimonial Post-Production
Once we gather feedback from the client, we begin editing the footage into an initial 90-120-second edit. We share the first version of the edit within 14 business days after the filming.

Clients have up to three rounds of revisions, and the turnaround on each round of revisions is 2-3 business days.

Once the primary testimonial video is approved by the client, we create shorter cutdowns or additional aspect ratios for social media. We can also add captions, background music, and title graphics.

**What is your team's process for onboarding new clients?**
We schedule a discovery call with prospective new clients to align on their goals and priorities, share video references, and discuss other pertinent details like budget and timeline. Also, we can complete many of these items by sharing an intake form ahead of the call.

If we determine that the project is a good fit, we will share an estimate with the client to outline the scope. If the estimate is approved, we share a detailed scope of work for signature. 

After the contract is signed, we schedule a kickoff call with the client to share a project plan & timeline, make official introductions to everyone who will be involved in the project, and answer any questions.
