News crews in Houston, TX
Breaking news coverage, live shots, ENG crews, and news photography in Houston — dispatched through our Las Vegas assignment desk, 24/7.
Need eyes on the ground in Houston? As the energy capital of the country and one of its largest cities, it makes national news regularly. Live Core Productions fields news crews in Houston, Texas for television stations and national news organizations, with same-day dispatch for breaking news and planned coverage for everything else.
What our Houston news crews cover
Assignments in Houston often center on the Harris County courthouses, the Houston Ship Channel and Port of Houston, NASA’s Johnson Space Center, and the Texas Medical Center. Stations and networks typically call us here for hurricanes and flooding, energy and industrial stories, space news, and court coverage.
Live shots and video delivery from Houston
Live shots from Houston are supported end to end: bonded cellular transmission, IFB and return video, and crews who treat a live window as non-negotiable. Recorded material — raw b-roll, cut VOSOTs, or full packages — moves through whatever workflow your newsroom already uses.
