Video Production in Hangzhou
The city where we delivered our flagship stream — six languages, eleven platforms, one summit. Hangzhou is e-commerce country, and it takes video seriously.
Hangzhou punches far above its size in two areas that matter to our clients: e-commerce and international summits. As the home of the Alibaba ecosystem, the city practically invented China's livestream commerce culture — studios, MCN agencies and brand teams here produce more live video per capita than anywhere in the country, and the local expectations for production quality are correspondingly high.
The summit side is a legacy of the 2016 G20: Hangzhou built world-class venues for it, led by the Hangzhou International Expo Center, and has been winning international conferences ever since. It is also where BTVS delivered its flagship project — a summit live stream produced in six languages and distributed to eleven platforms simultaneously, domestic and international, from a single production. That job remains our reference for what multi-language, multi-platform event streaming should look like.
For international brands, Hangzhou briefs usually combine the two: filming or streaming at an e-commerce company's campus, producing content for a livestream-commerce launch, or covering a summit at the Expo Center. Shanghai is under an hour away by high-speed rail, so our Shanghai and Beijing teams support Hangzhou shoots without meaningful travel overhead.

Frequently asked questions
What was the six-language, eleven-platform stream?+
An international summit in Hangzhou for which we produced a single live broadcast carrying six simultaneous language feeds, distributed to eleven platforms at once — Chinese and international. It is our flagship reference project for complex multi-language event streaming.
Can you produce livestream-commerce content for our brand?+
Yes. We build and crew livestream setups to the production standard Hangzhou's e-commerce scene expects, and work alongside your platform partners or agency on the commerce mechanics themselves.
Do you have a permanent crew in Hangzhou?+
We staff Hangzhou through our Shanghai and Beijing teams — Shanghai is under an hour away by high-speed rail — plus trusted local crew we have worked with on summit projects. Mobilization is quick and travel costs are minimal.
Can you film at West Lake or other scenic locations?+
Yes, and they make superb backdrops for brand and interview work. Some scenic areas restrict drones and commercial setups, so we plan locations and any needed permissions during pre-production.
