CREATIVE STRATEGY

Strategic thinking. Experience design. Creativity. Choose three.

The essence of any great event begins with understanding the strategic goals and objectives of our clients. We then build both the creative and technical architecture to support your vision of success and create remarkable experiences for your guests. We start each new project with a unique envisioning session where we hone in on what matters most to you and your event. From there, our producers and design team work collectively to develop an overall theme and vision which drives supporting elements such as: brand identity development, graphic design, content management, multimedia design, speaker curation and talent selection.

EVENT PRODUCTION

Let the jaw-dropping begin.

Our team of industry veterans have collectively worked on a myriad of international major projects including four Olympic Games, the FIFA World Cup, TED Conferences, Commonwealth Games, Asian Games, The JUNO Awards, countless international concert tours and several World Expos. Together, we have produced hundreds of events from celebrity gala dinners to international conferences, to major festivals and concerts – from 100 guests all the way up to 300,000. Our expertise is in creating spectacular curated events no matter the size or scope. Our event production services include technical management, stage design, audio and lighting design, site design, décor and prop builds, food and beverage planning, talent curation, and full budget consultation and management.

CONFERENCE SERVICES

We make conferences unboring.

Business is being done in a different way, conferences need to be too. We specialize in crafting unique “unconference” experiences that achieve your business goals whether it be unveiling a new product, creating company or industry culture, or creating B2B or B2C business opportunities. We understand the importance of meaningful and relevant content and work with you to build a comprehensive conference program that can include a mainstage speaker program, breakout sessions, social engagement, food & beverage, evening programs, activities and tours, or exhibitor sales.

BRAND DEVELOPMENT

We put you in the spotlight. Hope you like the attention.

To create immersive environments that reflect the personality of your brand we first have to identify the core of who you are. We uncover your brand story and weave it through every element of your event, right down to the materials we select. Our team of designers will create an entire visual language for you. From developing event names, to creative mood boards, to custom event logos, to designing iconography and colour schemes to be incorporated across the entire experience. Every event is an opportunity to showcase the culture behind your brand and connect closer with the public – our team makes that happen.

TALENT SERVICES

It’s what you know. It’s also who you know.

Our music industry pedigree, coupled with our high volume of artist bookings and our acclaimed Squamish Valley Music Festival, has allowed us to build outstanding relationships with artists, talent managers and booking agencies throughout North America. This gives us reach and buying power which we leverage to bring the best national and international talent to your events. We are also very much at home when dealing with VIP officials, politicians and celebrities – having produced events featuring President Bill Clinton as well as countless civic and provincial officials.

EXPERIENTIAL MARKETING

It’s not what you say, it’s how you show up.

Whether you want to increase attendance, attract media attention, or share information with your guests in an innovative way, our in-house team can develop and implement a communication strategy that meets your marketing objectives. Regardless of the industry, we find the right channels to connect with your audience; we then work with you to craft the right message and incentives to convert views into visits and excitement into attendance. We also offer social media services to ensure ongoing dialogue with your guests before, during and after your event. Additional services include web design and development, online registration, email marketing, web surveys, media buying and public relations.

VIDEO PRODUCTION

Storytelling that amplifies your brand.

At BRANDLIVE, we understand the power of video content to tell powerful brand stories and amplify your audience. Before your event, we create shareable video content that plays a vital role in building excitement and anticipation, driving attendance and ticket sales, increasing sponsor visibility and building the event brand. For the event, whether an indoor conference or an outdoor festival, we generate and manage the delivery of complex on-screen content that tells a consistent brand story. During the event itself, we capture, edit and post-produce compelling content to continue the brand storytelling process with impactful post-event highlight reels that are key for clients, attendees, brands and sponsors to share the success of the event with their personal and business networks.

SPONSORSHIP

Money doesn’t grow on trees. Trust us, we checked.

Since 2005 BRANDLIVE has sold and managed over $10 million in event sponsorships, and has built a reputation for outstanding client service along the way. Our mandate is simple, to develop meaningful and strategic partnerships that drive results for clients while adding value to the event properties we produce. This includes B2C and B2B sponsorships in events, festivals and conferences. From title sponsors to brand activations and exhibits, our team is there every step of the way to ensure your sponsorship goals are achieved.
