Concert Video
Production
NYC
Every song. Every angle. Start to finish.
We film live music the way it deserves to be seen: multiple cameras, clean sound from the room, and an edit that follows the performance from the first note to the final bow. Classical recitals, opera, gospel choirs, bands, galas and music from cultures around the world, in theaters, concert halls, lofts, gardens and living rooms across New York City, New Jersey and beyond.
Most of our concert work is long form. Full concerts edited from start to finish, often an hour to more than two hours, recorded in 4K and cut from several camera angles so it feels like you had the best seat in the house.
Not one wide shot. A directed edit.
A single camera at the back of the room documents a concert. A multi-camera recording lets people experience it: the full stage, the soloist's face, the pianist's hands, the drummer counting in, the audience on their feet.
We plan camera positions around the program before the doors open, so we know where the solo is coming and which angle needs to be ready. Then we edit the whole performance, cutting with the music instead of against it.
That's the difference between a recording and a concert film.
Watch full-length concerts.
Three examples that show the range: a cinematic concert documentary, a private concert series we have filmed year after year, and a live-streamed recital.
Opera at Home
Every year since 2022, one of our clients has brought opera singers from Italy to New York. One night they perform at Lincoln Center. The next, they sing in his garden on Long Island, for the people he loves most, including someone who can't easily get to a concert hall.
At the house we do more than film. We run the audio, record with multiple cameras and send the live picture to a TV inside, so no one misses a note wherever they are. Then we edit the full program for the family, their friends and the singers back in Italy.
Literbend Opera: Live-Streamed Recital
An opera and art song recital streamed live from a brick-walled loft, with the title and composer of every piece on screen.
This one was produced as a livestream, so it's delivered at the stream's 1080p resolution. Our recorded concerts are captured and delivered in 4K.
Every setup we film.
Every room looks and sounds different. These are the performances we film most, and each one gets the same planning and the same multi-camera edit.

Extras
Photography & clips
Stills of the artists and the audience, plus short vertical clips for social.
One performance. More opportunities to be discovered.
Your concert shouldn’t stop reaching people when the curtain closes. A thoughtfully captured performance can become a collection of content that keeps your artists visible, engages your audience, and helps promote what comes next.
We help you turn your recording into a coordinated release of full performances, individual songs, standout moments, and short promotional clips.
Content built for each platform.
Horizontal videos for YouTube and your website. Vertical clips for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. Square or portrait edits for social feeds. We adapt framing, pacing, titles, and captions so each version feels intentional wherever it appears.
More moments worth sharing.
A compelling solo, an audience reaction, an artist introduction, or a behind-the-scenes moment can give someone a reason to watch, share, and discover your work. We help identify those moments and shape them into content with a clear purpose.
Support beyond the edit.
Our services can include thumbnails, titles, descriptions, upload support, and release planning. We help organize your content so it is easier to publish consistently across the platforms that matter to your audience.
Capture once. Keep connecting.
The clients who make the most of their production investment treat the finished video as the beginning of their marketing. They release performances, share shorter clips over time, give artists and partners content to repost, and use each event to build interest in the next.
A single upload gives your audience one opportunity to engage. A planned collection of content creates more opportunities to discover your artists, revisit the experience, and take action.
We can plan those deliverables before filming, making your production work harder from the start.
Let’s build a production plan and a content plan together.
The music has to sound like the room.
The picture gets the attention, but people stop watching a concert when it sounds thin. We coordinate with the venue's sound engineer, record a feed from the house mix when there is one, and bring our own audio setup when there isn't.
Then the sound is mixed and cleaned up in the edit along with the picture, so the recording carries the energy of being there.
Sound for the room. Sound for the stream. Sound for the recording.

Concert video FAQ.
Can you record a full concert in New York City?
Yes. Transcendent Enterprise provides multi-camera concert recording in New York City and the surrounding area, including New Jersey: full concerts, recitals, galas and showcases, with professional audio, photography, editing and livestreaming from one team.
Do you edit the whole concert or just selected pieces?
Either. We can deliver the full concert from start to finish, a shorter cut of selected pieces, individual song videos, or all three from the same recording.
How many cameras do you use to film a concert?
It depends on the stage, the program and the budget. Most concerts are filmed with several cameras so the edit can cut between the full stage, the soloists and the audience. We recommend a setup once we know the venue.
Do you work with the venue's sound engineer?
Yes. When the venue has an engineer and a mixing board, we coordinate with them and record a feed from the house sound. When it doesn't, we bring our own audio setup.
Can you livestream the concert?
Yes. We can stream the concert live with program titles on screen and record it at the same time for a polished edit afterward.
Do you film concerts in 4K?
Yes. Our recorded concerts are captured and delivered in 4K. Livestreams are delivered at the stream's resolution, usually 1080p.
How much does concert video production cost?
Pricing depends on the length of the concert, the number of cameras, audio, photography, editing and whether it's livestreamed. Tell us the date, the venue and what you need, and we'll send a clear quote.
Your performance deserves more than one angle.
Tell us the venue, the date, how long the program runs and whether you want the full concert or selected pieces. We'll recommend a production approach and send a clear quote.
