The North Star Summit assembled some of Minnesota’s most prominent voices — including performer Dessa, Mayo Clinic’s CEO, Governor Tim Walz, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, and Neel Kashkari — for a wide-ranging conversation on the future of the state. An event with that kind of profile needed a stream that could keep up.
We built a multi-cam setup with dedicated close-up and wide angles to keep every speaker clearly framed, and integrated event slides and graphics directly into the live feed for a polished, broadcast-ready look from open to close.
The stream went out live to the Star Tribune’s YouTube channel, plus feeds distributed to local news outlets including FOX 9 and KARE 11 — extending the summit’s reach well beyond the room. The event is still viewable in full on the Star Tribune’s YouTube channel.
Star Tribune, a client of Walker’s, put it simply afterward:
Appreciate your hard work, flexibility, and deep technical knowledge here – was invaluable to pull off such a successful summit!
That result is why Walker now turns to Open Window Productions as their preferred livestream vendor for events across the board.
