Answer
I don’t have a full, finalized kit list specifically labeled for Disrupt 2023, but I can share the kind of cutting‑edge gear I typically use for event coverage based on my public kit and livestream work.
For camera and audio, I lean on:
- Mirrorless cameras with fast lenses for low light
- External shotgun and lav mics
- Reliable wireless audio systems
- Portable LED lighting
- Gimbals or stabilizers for smooth roaming coverage
For production and delivery:
- Hardware or software switchers for multi‑camera angles
- High‑quality capture cards
- Dedicated streaming laptop or small form‑factor PC
- Redundant storage (fast SD/CFexpress plus SSD backup)
If you want, I can sketch out an example “Disrupt-ready” kit with specific categories (camera, lenses, audio, support, streaming) tailored to your budget and role (creator, brand, or in‑house team).
What’s your main goal at events: polished livestreams, short social clips, or full-on interviews?
