At a glance
Purpose first, camera second.
Event coverage needs different subjects and schedules from staff portraits or a corporate video. We therefore agree the purpose, channels, format, date and permissions before planning the production.

Photography with a clear brief.
Photography can document events and show a business through its people, spaces and working processes. What matters is how the images will be used afterwards.
Event documentary photography
Atmosphere, interactions and key programme elements captured as a coherent photographic record.
Corporate documentary photography
Working processes and real situations for websites, press, recruitment or internal communications.

Spaces & products
Present premises and selected products clearly for the planned communications.
Before the shoot
Which images do you actually need?
Together, we decide which situations and subjects matter, whether permissions from people appearing in the images are needed, and which channels the images are intended for. This establishes a realistic schedule and a useful selection.

Videos for events and businesses.
Video needs a clear message from the outset. Filming, sound, editing and the people involved are planned around the production's purpose.
Event video
Programme elements, atmosphere and selected interviews in a format agreed in advance.
Corporate video
People, spaces, processes or products for websites, recruitment and communications.
The right team
Where more camera, sound or editing capacity is needed, suitable partners are brought in. The quote sets out who handles each task.
Live streaming & conferences
Plan picture, sound and connectivity together.
For conferences, events and hybrid formats, cameras, sound, presentation feeds and broadcasting can be brought together. For these productions, Kern Medien works with specialist partners from its existing network.
We check the venue's connections, existing equipment and internet connection early. If there is no reliable connection, a mobile Starlink kit can be considered as an option. Actual availability and performance depend on the location.

Frequently asked questions about photography and video.
Key points before enquiring about a project.
Does Dennis handle every project alone?
Not necessarily. Dennis remains your contact. Depending on the scope, Kern Medien brings together suitable people for photography, filming, sound and editing. Responsibilities are agreed before you book.
Which files will we receive?
Formats, resolution, selection and delivery method are agreed to suit the intended use and described in the quote.
Can photography and video be provided at the same time?
Yes, if the schedule, scope and availability of suitable people allow it. Responsibilities and the key subjects must be agreed early.
Is live streaming possible without a fixed internet connection?
A mobile Starlink kit can be considered as a connectivity option. Its suitability at a particular location depends on factors including a clear view of the sky and the technical requirements.
What should the finished work show?
Tell us the date, location, preferred medium and intended use. We will assess the scope and get back to you with any outstanding questions.
