A hybrid event combines a physical venue with an online audience. This can be useful for conferences, company meetings, panel discussions, product launches and events involving speakers or guests in different locations.

A hybrid production may include cameras, microphones, presentation feeds, video switching, streaming equipment, screens for remote contributors and technical monitoring.

The production must be designed for both audiences. People inside the venue need clear sound and visuals, while online viewers need a polished broadcast with intelligible audio, suitable camera coverage and correctly displayed presentations. The exact system will depend on the platform, number of contributors and level of interaction required.
