What we do

What’s included

Every project is scoped to what you need. These are the pieces we deliver most often.

Event photography

Candids, speakers, sponsors, details and crowds, with selects sized for press and social.

Recap and sizzle reels

A 60 to 120 second recap that sells next year’s tickets and sponsorships.

On-site social edits

Book an on-site editor and vertical clips are cut at the event, so you can post while attendees are still talking about it.

Aerial coverage

Drone shots of the venue and crowd, planned around FAA rules for flying over people and stadium restrictions.

Speaker and session capture

Multi-camera recording of keynotes and panels with clean audio.

Sponsor deliverables

Logo placements, activations and sponsor-specific clips they can share.

RAW Digital Group covers events in Detroit with video, photography and drone aerials: conferences, festivals, galas, grand openings and brand activations, with optional on-site social edits and a polished recap film.

Updated

Coverage that works while the event is still happening

The value of event content drops by the hour. By the time most recap videos arrive, attendees have moved on and the conversation is over. We plan for that: an on-site editor can cut vertical clips at the event, and the photo selects and polished recap are scheduled in the quote so they land while you are still selling next year.

Planned around your run of show

Good event coverage is mostly positioning. We study your schedule, the moments that matter, VIPs and sponsor obligations, then place photographers and camera operators so nothing on the list is missed. Sponsors get content they can use, speakers get clean audio and the room gets shot at its fullest.

Aerials, done legally

Drone shots give an event scale, but the rules are strict. FAA regulations limit flying over people, and the airspace around Comerica Park and Ford Field closes on game days. Some events bring their own temporary flight restrictions. We plan aerials from compliant positions and check every restriction before we promise a shot. Our game-day airspace guide explains the most common one.

After the event

The same crew can turn event footage into year-round content: sponsor reels, highlight clips and teasers for the next edition. Tell us about your event.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

When do we get photos and video after the event?
Book an on-site editor and vertical social clips are cut at the event. Delivery dates for photo selects and the polished recap are written into your quote.
Can you fly a drone over the crowd?
FAA rules restrict flying over people, and sustained flight over open-air crowds is limited to aircraft that meet specific requirements. We plan aerials of the venue and crowd from compliant positions and check for stadium and special-event flight restrictions.
Do you cover multi-day conferences and festivals?
Yes. Multi-day events get a coverage plan per day and a shared delivery folder that updates as we go.
Can you capture sponsor content?
Yes. Tell us each sponsor’s deliverables and we will build them into the shot list so sponsors get content they can share.
How much does event videography cost in Detroit?
It depends on the coverage: event photography, photo and video together, or full multi-camera coverage with aerials and on-site edits. Request rates on this page and send the date, hours and venue for a fixed quote.
