David Lynch Foundation

Livestreaming is an incredible way of expanding the size of a traditional live event audience, and in doing so, growing engagement across social platforms and increasing donations or revenue opportunities. Our clients from the David Lynch Foundation, who would usually hold a high-profile, in-person gala and concert, reached out to Chrome to ask us to re-define what a fundraising gala could be during a pandemic. Our answer was a 70-minute show, which featured a star-studded line up led by George Stephanopoulos with appearances from David Lynch, Hugh Jackman, and Deborra-lee Furness, and musical performances from the likes of Sting, Angelique Kidjo, Elvis Costello, and Kesha. By utilising cutting-edge technology that enabled a zero-latency stream, we were able to produce and direct the entire show from London with our hosts comfortably in a studio in New York City.
