Why this works
The team flew in. The booth's built. The customers are walking by. The hardest cost is sunk. The only remaining variable is whether the team captures the right moments or scrambles to film whatever they remember after dinner. A short pre-show capture brief turns the event from a chase into a routine.
Who you'll feature
Visiting customers willing to talk on camera. Often more than you'd expect.
Speakers and panelists from your team. Their stage moment is the asset.
Partners and analysts in attendance. 30-second cameos.
How to capture it
Before the show, decide three captures you must come home with. Write them on the brief.
Send pre-show Requests via MarketScale → Requests to scheduled visitors. Three prompts:
Why did you stop at our booth?
What do you want to take home from this show?
What's one thing you'd say if you only had 30 seconds?
Book an Onsite Video Booking for the show days. The crew handles audio, lighting, and B-roll while the booth team focuses on conversations.
Use AI Writer to draft per-clip captions and follow-up email copy on the same day.
Reuse it (the 1:10 framing)
One capture-disciplined event becomes:
A 3-minute event recap.
A library of 30-to-60-second customer-on-floor clips.
Per-day social cuts published while the show runs.
A LinkedIn post per analyst or partner cameo.
A sales-followup video attachment for every booth scan.
A blog post on "what we heard at [event]."
A press-pitch hook for category coverage.
An ABM asset for accounts that didn't visit.
A QBR appendix for booth-visiting customers.
A pinned event playlist on your Channel feed.
Bundle by account into Sales Team Materials. Reps drop into follow-up the morning after.
Common mistake
Filming the booth instead of the people who walked in. Wide shots of the booth photograph well and convince nobody. Customers on camera, even with imperfect light, do the work. Optimize for who's in the frame, not how the frame looks.
