Event Production & AV Portfolio

Portrait of Steven Ng wearing a headset at a live event control position

Based at a private club venue in Hong Kong, I run live production for ballroom galas, banquets, weddings and member events: video switching, OBS live streaming and hybrid meetings, live audio mixing, lighting and venue system integration — plus outdoor events, yacht parties and restaurant entertainment systems. Working with limited resources, I handle setup, rehearsal and show execution end to end. Every photo and video on this page is a record of my own work.

Featured Project: Charity Gala Live Production

The 'A Soirée of Giving — Weaving Hong Kong Together' charity gala was held in the Vista Ballroom at The American Club. The photo shows my front-of-house (FOH) position that night; the videos show the ballroom lighting and screens in action.

One desk runs the whole show: video, lighting and audio in sync

FOH position — video switching, lighting & show calling in one desk

The position handled three video outputs (main screen, side screens and preview), playback of the event key visuals, the lighting console and tablet-controlled audio levels, following the full run sheet cue by cue through the programme.

Ballroom lighting was programmed before the dinner: purple themed wall washes, stage accents and screen content working together, so the atmosphere was set the moment guests took their seats.

Day-to-Day Work

Daily Office & Meeting Support

Beyond the big show nights: the day-to-day AV work around the club — video meetings and hybrid setups in dining rooms, meeting rooms and the ballroom, on-site recording support, outdoor performances, and the troubleshooting that keeps it all running.
