Kudos AV produces conferences, award ceremonies, brand activations, exhibitions and private events across London and the UK, around 500 a year, from our base in Uxbridge. The core team is full time; when a build needs more hands we book freelancers we know, and the people who do good work get booked again and again.
Signing up takes two minutes: three details now, then an onboarding form where you tell us what you do, your tickets and your rates. Once you are on the register, our bookings board can put you straight on jobs. Day rates are agreed before you are booked, and we pay promptly on invoice.
For camera and streaming that means multi camera shoots with IMAG, hybrid conferences going out to remote audiences, and awards nights where the winner walk up has to be on screen before the applause dies.
What you will do
- Operate cameras on live events, tracking speakers and staying ahead of the running order.
- Vision mix IMAG and record feeds for conferences and ceremonies.
- Set up and run live streams, including encoders, platforms and comfort monitoring.
- Match shots and exposure across operators, and work to the director or crew chief.
- Load in, load out and look after the kit.
What we are looking for
- Professional live event camera or vision mixing experience, not just studio or wedding work.
- Confident with broadcast cameras, tripods and CCUs, or with switchers such as ATEM and vMix.
- Understanding of live streaming platforms, bitrates and redundancy.
- Able to work events across London and the UK.
Useful but not essential
- Both disciplines: operators who mix and mixers who shoot get booked most.
- Your own PLI.
- A full UK driving licence.
Join the freelance crew.
Three details now, then an onboarding form for your disciplines, tickets and rates. You will be registered for these disciplines and on the list our bookings board works from.
