Wildbound Live is an award-winning livestream, virtual, and hybrid event production company.

Based in Lake Tahoe, we produce events all over the world using the latest trends, technology, and equipment in multi-camera live-broadcast productions for awards ceremonies, business conferences, author and publisher events, product launches, nonprofit fundraisers, athletic events, musical performances, corporate seminars, and more.

RECENT EVENTS

The Broken Arrow Skyrace, presented by Salomon, is a three-day, eight distance event held at world-famous Palisades Tahoe. The event showcases some of the most rugged and scenic terrain in North America, attracting elite and recreational trail runners from around the world. Wildbound Live was brought in to produce the pre-recorded content and direct the two-day live-broadcast, which included 20+ on-course cameras, drones, and on-air talent.

The Kirkus Prize is one of the richest literary awards in the world, with a prize of $50,000 bestowed annually to authors of fiction, nonfiction, and young readers’ literature. It was created to celebrate the decades of discerning, thoughtful criticism Kirkus Reviews has contributed to both the publishing industry and readers at large. Wildbound Live was brought in to hand all production and livestream logistics for the awards ceremony, including all prerecorded content, production crew, equipment, and live elements.

Premium production value at a fraction of the cost of traditional broadcast budgets

Our unique background in both film production and PR/marketing informs how we approach each event. No two projects are the same, and the proof is in the pudding: our award-winning livestreams have generated millions of eyeballs and obliterated the limitations of in-person only events. In today's world of online activity and digital engagement, your event needs to be livestreamed. We fundamentally believe that and our clients have witnessed the benefits first-hand.

 How can livestreaming benefit you?

We have represented and produced content in traditional media for hundreds of clients across all forms of media, including first run feature films, tv series, books, speaking tours, and more for top brands, celebrity actors, renowned athletes, mega publishers and authors, and more. Yet we have NEVER seen the type of success that we have had with our livestream events. The benefits of livestreaming are limitless, but a few key takeaways include:

  • Expand your audience to a global market. You are no longer restricted to physical boundaries.

  • Collect realtime data, analytics, and metrics on your audience, including demographics, geography, impressions, time viewed, and so on that allow you to sell sponsors or inform your next event.

  • Gain direct access to your audience by generating email subscribers and social media followers through the registration process, subscriber prompts, giveaway initiatives, and more.

  • Bring virtual guests, speakers, hosts, VIPs, or keynotes into the conversation virtually. Wildbound can patch virtual speakers into the conversation and livestream as if they are in the physical room, opening a real-time live conversation between the virtual guest, in-person audience, and livestream audience.

  • Get immediate access to a replay of the event that you can share with your audience immediately after the event ends. By liveswitching between multi-cameras on site, we are able to edit, mix, and color in REALTIME, thereby completely by-passing a lengthy and often costly post-production process of traditional videography. This means a high res, optimized file is ready for distribution the second your event ends!

  • Establishing a livestream of your event enables you to control the registration and ticketing process. Our proprietary method of ticketing our livestream events have raised significantly more money than standard checkout for in-person events and are a great place to feature and highlight sponsors and partners.
