10/10 would recommend! Great experience working with Erica and the EMRG Media team to ensure we had a seamless holiday party for about 900 people. Erica was available to help with every step along the way and help bring to our attention additional ideas, needs and considerations to help make our party a huge success! Her team went above and beyond on the day of to ensure all of the final touches were handled and it allowed for our internal planning team to be able to sit back and enjoy the party. Great at communicating and sourcing vendors at a great rate due to their connections within the industry. Looking forward to working with EMRG Media again in the future!

Our theme, “A Night of Iconic New York,” celebrated the city’s landmarks, symbols, food, culture, and sounds, and the EMRG Media team transformed Terminal 5 into a stunning representation of the Big Apple. Each floor transported attendees to a different iconic neighborhood, from Little Italy and Chinatown to Times Square and Bryant Park. Employees were fully immersed in the experience, feeling as though they were traveling through the city’s vibrant boroughs.

Incredible experience working with Erica and EMRG Media. She coordinated for us a 200 person event with less than two weeks’ time, and was able to accommodate everything we needed. The entire event went smoothly, and was better than we could have ever imagined.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does a show caller do at a live event?
A show caller runs the event in real time from a script, giving verbal cues to every operator over headset: standby lights, take video, mic on, cue the walk-on. Every department follows one voice, which is what keeps a program tight. Without a caller each operator reacts to what they see on stage, and reaction is always a beat late.
How does EMRG Media run a live show?
EMRG Media builds the run-of-show, rehearses it with the client and the speakers, then calls the event live from a single position so lighting, audio, video, and stage cues fire together. One producer stays accountable from the first walkthrough to the final strike.
How much rehearsal does a live event need?
Rehearsal time depends on the complexity of the show, but every technical cue should be tested (2 to 3 hours) before guests enter the room. A cue-to-cue rehearsal can move efficiently through entrances, exits, lighting changes, videos, microphones, walk-up music, and transitions without running every presentation in full. Speakers should still get individual stage time (15 to 20 minutes) to practice their entrance, positioning, clicker, and other elements they’ll handle themselves.
Can EMRG Media run rehearsals and technical checks with our speakers?
Yes. EMRG Media blocks every cue, tests each input, and walks speakers through timing, staging, and the clicker before doors, so presenters are not meeting the equipment for the first time in front of an audience.
What happens if something fails during a live show?
The production team should already know what happens if a microphone dies, a presentation feed disappears, or a speaker isn’t ready when called. That means tested backup microphones, duplicate presentation files and playback options, and an emcee prepared to fill unexpected time. Live-event audiences understand that things happen. What they notice is how quickly and calmly the show recovers.
Does EMRG Media produce live shows for brands and institutions alike?
Yes. EMRG Media produces live programs for Fortune 500 brands, banks, universities, and media companies, scaling from a boardroom panel to a main stage of several thousand.
How is a run-of-show different from an agenda?
An agenda tells the audience what is happening. A run-of-show tells the crew what to do, line by line, in clock time, with the cue for every department against each line. It runs to the minute or finer, names who is responsible for each action, and is the only document a technical crew works from on show day. An event without one is being improvised by everyone at once.
