Live-Stream Broadcast Production | August 2025

THE CHALLENGE

Minds Count Foundation delivers an Annual Keynote Address at the Federal Court of Australia in Sydney — a high-profile event for the legal profession with a live audience in the courtroom and hundreds more watching online from across the country. The event needs to feel like a professional broadcast, not a video conference. Minds Count needed a production partner who could reliably manage the entire technical delivery year after year, without the foundation's small team having to think about cameras, encoding, streaming platforms, or contingency plans.

THE APPROACH

Mediahouse has delivered the Minds Count Annual Keynote since 2016. A small on-site crew handles cameras and audio at the Federal Court while the full broadcast is produced remotely from the Mediahouse remote studio — live switching, graphics, Q&A moderation and stream monitoring all happen here.

Each year, we build a custom-branded event page for Minds Count using our Event Template platform. The page includes a broadcast-quality video player, live Q&A, document downloads and post-event on-demand access. No generic webinar links, no third-party branding, no "you're now entering a Zoom meeting" experience. The audience sees a Minds Count event page that looks and feels purpose-built for them — because it was.

Our production crew manages the entire remote production from the studio while staying in constant contact with the on-site crew and the Minds Count team. If something changes on the day — a speaker runs long, the Q&A needs moderating, the schedule shifts — it's handled live without the client needing to make technical decisions under pressure.

THE RESULT

Ten consecutive years of flawless delivery. Every keynote has gone to air without a broadcast failure. The foundation receives a complete recording after each event, turning a single-day keynote into months of on-demand content for their audience.

The Minds Count event page runs on Mediahouse's own streaming platform — 75+ configurable features, deployable in under 30 minutes, and nothing hardcoded. Registration, live Q&A, moderation, branded player, on-demand access — all controlled through a single config layer that adapts to each event. If the brief changes, the platform changes with it.
