2 Stream is expanding its freelance network. Are you a camera operator, vMix technician, audio technician, or event crew with your own daily rate? Send your profile to contact@2stream.live.


Why 2 Stream regularly seeks freelancers

2 Stream is a Belgian broadcast and streaming company with a permanent studio in Zaventem and its own webinar and event platform, CenterStage. We produce webinars, livestreams, hybrid events, corporate broadcasts, podcasts, interviews, conferences, and video recordings, both in the studio and on location at the client's premises. This spread—an embassy event in Brussels one week, a three-day conference with international speakers the next—means that a fixed team alone is not sufficient.


In practice, we constantly see schedule peaks coinciding: two hybrid events on the same day, a livestream for an international organization requesting extra PTZ operators, or a corporate recording requiring an additional audio technician familiar with the Behringer X32. Therefore, we work structurally with a pool of freelance professionals whom we can deploy alongside our permanent team on a project basis, for short or long terms, depending on the production.


Anyone seeking freelance assignments in video, livestreaming, and event technology will therefore find not a one-off job at 2 Stream, but a recurring collaboration with a production house that works for international organizations, government institutions, and companies for whom reliability is not just commercial talk, but a hard requirement.


How we assess freelance profiles

Before we assign someone to a production, we look at a number of concrete matters:

Technical experience with the right tools: Panasonic PTZ cameras, vMix, Blackmagic Design equipment, Behringer X32 mixing consoles, and wireless microphone systems.

Independence under pressure: can you keep a livestream running if something goes wrong along the way, without someone having to hold your hand?

Customer focus: how do you deal with clients from government, diplomacy, or international companies, where protocol sensitivity is often just as important as technical quality.

Team fit: do you function well within a production team with a director, technical management, and other crew members, or do you prefer working completely solo?

Language skills: Dutch, French, and/or English is a plus, especially for international or bilingual productions.

Availability and rate: a realistic daily rate and clear availability enable quick scheduling.


Camera operators and Panasonic PTZ operators

We are looking for camera operators who are proficient in both traditional camerawork and PTZ operation, for studio shoots and on-location events.

Experience with Panasonic PTZ cameras is a strong asset, as vMix supports direct PTZ control from the software itself, with pan, tilt, and zoom settings adjusted in real time during a livestream.

You must be able to switch between multiple camera angles in a studio setup and a mobile setup on location, for example at a conference or embassy reception.

An eye for composition remains crucial: operating a PTZ camera is not a matter of clicking a preset, but of thinking along live with what is happening on stage.

For whom: freelancers with a camera technical background who want to progress towards remote-controlled multi-camera setups.


vMix operators and live video technicians

vMix operators form the backbone of our livestreams; they combine video, cameras, titles, and remote guests into one coherent broadcast.

vMix is ​​software built for live streaming and production with multiple cameras, audio, titles, and remote guests, and allows simultaneous streaming and recording.

We ask for operators who not only know the interface but also make decisions under time pressure: which camera at which moment, when to insert a title, and how to handle a technical problem during a live broadcast without the audience noticing.

Experience with multi-camera switching at conferences, hybrid events, or corporate broadcasts is a major plus.

For whom: technicians who already work with vMix or similar switchers and are ready for more complex, multilingual, or international productions.


Streaming engineers

Streaming engineers ensure that the technical chain from camera to end viewer remains stable throughout the entire broadcast, regardless of platform or location.

This profile revolves around network stability, encoding, bandwidth management, and preventing outages in mission-critical livestreams.

At international or hybrid events, as we describe in our article on professional livestreaming for corporate events and conferences, there is often no second chance: a broadcast that cuts out during a keynote by a minister or CEO cannot be recovered.

We are looking for people who test in advance, build in redundancy, and remain alert to signal quality during the broadcast.

For whom: technicians with an IT or broadcast background who have a thorough command of the technical side of livestreaming.


Audio technicians

Audio makes or breaks a production, especially at multilingual or international events where simultaneous translation, wireless microphones, and sound reinforcement come together.

Experience with Behringer X32 mixing consoles is a strong preference, along with knowledge of wireless microphone systems in more complex venue setups.

At conferences with multiple speakers, panels, and Q&A sessions, you need to be able to switch between microphones quickly without interference or feedback.

Audio is often the least visible part of a production, but the first thing that stands out as soon as things go wrong.

For whom: Audio engineers with event experience who are comfortable with live, unpredictable environments rather than exclusively studio recordings.


Presentation and PowerPoint technicians

Presentation technicians ensure that speaker slides, video inserts, and transitions run seamlessly in sync with what is happening on the stage.

This is an underestimated but essential profile for conferences and corporate events with multiple consecutive speakers.

You work closely with the director and vMix operator to ensure that slide transitions, video insertion, and any last-minute changes run smoothly.

Stress resistance is more important here than pure technical complexity: a speaker adjusting their slides five minutes before the start is the rule rather than the exception.

For whom: people with experience in presentation management at conferences, trade shows, or corporate events.


Technical event crew and production assistants

The technical event crew and production assistants form the flexible shell that ensures setup, testing, and dismantling run smoothly around the core production.

This profile has a broader range of applications: laying cables, testing equipment, assisting with setup and dismantling, and providing support to the core technical team.

For those just entering the sector, this is often a good stepping stone to more specialized roles such as vMix operator or streaming engineer.

We do require independence and punctuality: every minute counts on location at government institutions or international organizations, and protocol is non-negotiable.

For whom: Junior to mid-level crew members who want to grow within live production environments.


Video editors

Video editors process recordings of livestreams, interviews, and podcasts into finished content for follow-up, archiving, or social media.

This work usually takes place after production, in post-production, and does not require on-site presence during the event itself.

Experience with fast turnaround times is a plus: clients often want a summary video or highlight reel within a few days after an event.

For whom: freelance editors who want to work flexibly remotely, alongside or in combination with live production work.


Which profile suits which assignment

Are you technically skilled with camera and PTZ? Then you are a good fit for studio recordings and multi-camera livestreams.

Do you already work with vMix or similar switchers? Then you are a candidate for more complex hybrid and international productions.

Do you have an IT or networking background? Then streaming engineering suits you best.

Do you have audio experience with live events? Then we are looking for you for conferences and multilingual productions.

Do you prefer to stay more in the background, with an eye for detail? Then presentation management or post-production editing is a better fit.

Are you just starting out in the industry? Then technical event crew is a good entry point.


Freelance rates in this sector vary significantly depending on specialization, experience, and the type of production. A junior crew member typically charges a different daily rate than a specialized streaming engineer responsible for a mission-critical broadcast for an international organization. We therefore explicitly ask freelancers to provide their own daily rate, rather than imposing a fixed rate, precisely because the profile, the assignment, and the context are major determining factors.


Would you like to see the types of productions you could be involved in? Our client page features projects for a wide range of sectors, from corporate videos to live sessions and podcast productions. Our recent work surrounding the USA250 celebration in Brussels provides a good illustration of the kind of international, protocol-sensitive productions for which we deploy freelancers.


The core of this story: 2 Stream is not looking for one-off stand-ins, but freelance professionals who grow with a growing international production network centered around livestreaming, hybrid events, and corporate broadcasts. Anyone applying with a clear profile will know exactly which information counts: specialization, experience, region, daily rate, and availability, thereby immediately increasing their chances of securing a concrete assignment.

Frequently Asked Questions


What is the average hourly wage of a freelance technician?

There is no fixed hourly wage for freelance AV technicians; the rate depends on specialization, experience, and the type of production. A streaming engineer for a mission-critical international broadcast typically charges a different rate than a production assistant at a local event. At 2 Stream, we ask freelancers to provide their daily rate themselves so that it aligns with their experience and the type of assignment.


What is a normal freelance rate in video and livestreaming?

A standard rate varies significantly depending on the role: camera operators, vMix technicians, audio technicians, and streaming engineers each set their own pricing based on specialization and the scarcity of their skills. Experience with specific equipment such as Panasonic PTZ cameras, Blackmagic Design, or Behringer X32 can influence the rate. Therefore, we ask freelancers to state their own daily rate when applying.


Can you freelance without a VAT number?

In Belgium, a VAT number is generally required as soon as you structurally invoice services as a self-employed person, for example through self-employment as a secondary or primary occupation. Alternative statuses exist for occasional or small-scale freelance activities, but the precise conditions depend on your personal situation. We advise freelancers to verify this in advance with an accountant or the relevant authorities.


Where can I find assignments in video and event technology as a freelancer?

You can find freelance assignments in video, livestreaming, and event technology through specialized production companies such as 2 Stream, via freelance platforms aimed at audio-video professionals, and through your own network within the event sector. 2 Stream regularly seeks freelance camera operators, vMix technicians, audio technicians, and event crew for studio recordings, livestreams, and hybrid events, and invites interested parties to send their profile to info@2stream.live.


Which experience counts most at 2 Stream?

Experience with Panasonic PTZ cameras, vMix, Blackmagic Design equipment, Behringer X32 mixing consoles, and wireless microphone systems carries the most weight, along with demonstrable experience in professional streaming workflows. At least equally important are the ability to work independently under time pressure and a customer-oriented approach, especially for productions for government institutions, international organizations, or corporate clients where protocol and reliability are paramount.
