These services will comprise Audio Visual recording, filming, livestreaming of interviews and events to be published and streamed on Shared Island social media, and related production services in support of the Shared Island Dialogue series. Each event will require a site visit in advance and require a minimum half-day set-up. Events will typically last approximately four hours and host an audience of up to 300. The contractor will be expected to be in a position to supply all raw recording of the dialogue within 48 hours after the event and work on the highlights videos to begin straight after the event.
