live production services
Live production built to make air
From the morning editorial call to the final live shot, one integrated team owns the show: control rooms, studios, ENG and field crews, live interviews, editing, graphics and transmission. Built for changing rundowns, breaking news and a hard clock, in Washington and wherever the story goes.
Live shows and switching
Multi-camera live control and switching for daily news in studio, flypack or remote. Audio, lighting, IFB and comms, single-camera hits through full election-night builds.
Field interviews and anchoring
Fast-turn interview setups on location throughout Washington, with reporters and guests booked back to back.
Field & ENG crews
Two-person and full crews for breaking coverage, packages, remotes and specials anywhere in the country, plus cinema shooters and directors of photography for higher-end shoots.
Post & graphics
Same-day edit, lower thirds, motion graphics and show packaging built to a repeatable house style.
Streaming, encoding and transmission
Live streaming and video encoding, LiveU/bonded and fiber transmission, delivery to your playout, platform, YouTube or web destination, plus clipping and social cutdowns.
Producers & crew staffing
Show, segment and field producers, directors, TDs, camera, audio and lighting techs, editors and engineers, day-of freelance or embedded long-term.
Washington navigation & fixing
D.C. fixers who handle Capitol Hill and agency credentials, permits, stakeouts, location access and escorts, so visiting crews land ready to shoot.
Broadcast consulting and training
Show design, workflow build-out, equipment and facility planning, plus hands-on crew and on-air training for teams standing up or upgrading a news operation.
who we are
Network people, not a vendor bench
Stagecoach is run by producers and broadcast engineers who built network television at CNN, FOX, CBS, ABC and ESPN. Our team includes former heads of the Radio and Television Correspondents Association on Capitol Hill and a former White House pool chair for the five-network pool. These are people who have coordinated USTV Pool coverage of presidential addresses, debates, political conventions, election nights, State of the Union and National Special Security Events.
Between them: Emmy-winning producing, decades in the control room and director's chair, White House and Capitol Hill camera and field engineering, and signal transmission for national distribution. The people on your show are the same people who have done it at the highest level, every day, under a hard clock.

From the field
for news outlets
Production services, broadcast infrastructure and staffing
Networks, digital outlets and independent shows hire us as their production arm in Washington and on the road. We supply the gear, the signal path and the people, whether that's a one-off hit from the Hill, a weekly show, or a full election-night build. You keep editorial control if you want. Or we can help there too; we make sure it gets to air clean.
