Deadline discipline
A live window is non-negotiable and a slot time is a promise. Our crews plan transmission, power, and backup before the first frame rolls.
Our story
Based in Las Vegas and serving newsrooms since 2018, Live Core Productions covers breaking news and takes live and recorded assignments for TV stations and national news outlets in 40+ U.S. markets.
Live Core Productions started with a simple frustration familiar to every assignment editor: a story breaks in a market where you have no crew, and the clock is already running. Since 2018, we’ve been the answer to that call — a Las Vegas-based assignment desk backed by a large crew of working news photographers and videographers positioned in cities throughout the United States.
Today our teams shoot breaking news video, cover spot news overnight, staff multi-day trials and political events, and deliver live shots and recorded news segments for local stations, national networks, and digital newsrooms. National outlets use us to be everywhere at once; local stations use us to reach beyond their DMA without adding headcount.
Every crew we dispatch is a news crew first. That means understanding live windows and IFB etiquette, knowing what an affiliate feed needs versus a network package, shooting sequences an editor can actually cut, and moving footage on deadline through whatever workflow your newsroom already uses. Gear matters — 4K/UHD broadcast packages, professional audio, LiveU/TVU bonded cellular — but judgment is what gets the story on air.
Live Core Productions is a Las Vegas-based news video production company serving TV stations and national outlets in 40+ U.S. markets since 2018.
