Why Argus HD

Event Recaps That Capture the Room

A great recap is planned before the doors open. We agree the shot list with you, place cameras on the stage, the audience and the moments in between, and capture short soundbites from attendees and speakers on the day. Our editors then build a 60 to 120 second sizzle reel with music, motion graphics and your branding, plus vertical cutdowns for Instagram, LinkedIn and TikTok.

Our Process

How It Works

Hidden Hotel Markups

Almost every large hotel gets kickbacks from their preferred A/V companies. Often times you’ll pay 50% to 100% more! Some hotels have contracts to say you must use their “preferred” in-house A/V company. Don’t be fooled; this is easily negotiated away simply by asking.

Inexperienced Technicians

Many in-house companies hire technicians new to the industry. With big hearts & eager passions, they will learn on your event, even though you’re paying top dollar. They often time lack show experience, and because of low wages, in-house turn over is often times very high.

Outdated Equipment

For the price you’ll pay, there is no guarantee that the expensive, “preferred” A/V company will be using the newest or most premiere equipment in the field. We, sadly, see in-house companies use equipment more than a decade old, despite charging market rates.

Delivered on Time

Edits, recaps and replays are delivered on schedule and formatted for every channel your audience uses.

Our work strives to inspire and engage. As a full-service event production company to deliver your vision.
