Event Streaming Cost Considerations

When a Red Stick business owner asks, “How much does it cost to stream an event in Baton Rouge?” details about the event help us line out the costs. For example:

• The length of the event plays a role because longer events require more crew for a longer time, therefore incurring higher costs.
•  
• The size of the audience who will be viewing the event also plays a role because a larger audience requires the event to be streamed on higher bandwidth.
•  
• The size of the event will also be a factor because a single presentation requires fewer crew members than a multi-presentation event demands.
