What Newark events usually need

  • Conferences and summits: two-camera keynote recording, panel coverage, speaker portraits and a recap film.
  • Awards nights: stage coverage with a tight camera on the podium, plus a photographer for winners and grip-and-greet frames.
  • University and civic events: clean full-session recordings with board-fed audio, captioned for accessibility.
  • Corporate parties and team days: candid coverage with same-day selects for internal comms.

Audio is what makes stage video usable

Most unusable event footage fails on sound, not picture. For anything with a speaker we record a feed from the venue's board plus our own backup — a lav on the presenter or a recorder at the lectern — so a dropped feed or a failed house mic does not cost you the session.

Who we are

Inspiration Station is a photo and video crew based in Jersey City, working across New York City and New Jersey.

We carry general liability insurance and issue a certificate of insurance for any venue that requires one.
