Where the news happens in Minneapolis

Our Minneapolis crews work the stories that come out of Minneapolis City Hall and the Hennepin County Government Center, the U.S. Courthouse, and U.S. Bank Stadium and Target Field, and they know the stand-up positions, parking, and access rules at each of them. Assignments in Minneapolis reach the North Loop, Uptown, Dinkytown, Northeast, and Downtown and the rest of the Twin Cities, and a crew can be rolling to a scene anywhere in the metro within the hour.

Scheduled coverage and events in Minneapolis

Scheduled coverage in Minneapolis includes press conferences, trials and hearings, campaign stops, sports and entertainment at the Minneapolis Convention Center, U.S. Bank Stadium, and the Chain of Lakes, commencements and campus stories at the University of Minnesota, Augsburg University, and Minneapolis College, and the planned events that fill a rundown. We shoot to your style guide, deliver b-roll, VOSOTs, or full packages, and return the raw media the same day.
