Red House Streaming

What Red House Streaming does

Red House Streaming is a full-service video production and live streaming company headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida, operating as a subsidiary of CP Communications. The company operates three production studios (Studio A for broadcast, Studio B for influencer content with cyclorama, and Studio C, a 2,000 sq ft main stage featuring Mark Roberts Motion Control robotic cameras), a mobile production fleet (Spark HD trailer, Flight flypack, HD-21 production truck, and Smart Cars), and remote production capabilities built on bonded cellular, IP transmission, and proprietary WebRTC-based platforms (FastReturn and Virtual Media Center). It serves enterprise sports broadcasters (ESPN, CBS Sports, MLB Network, ACC Network, LPGA, CrossFit Games), major live events (Super Bowl, SXSW, Daytona 500), nonprofits, corporate clients, educational institutions, and content creators, producing multi-camera live coverage, corporate video, podcast and series production, and remote production (REMI) workflows.

The company's revenue model combines professional services revenue (studio rentals, live event production, video production, remote production billed as project-based contracts) with advertising revenue from RHStv, a proprietary FAST streaming network distributed across Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, iOS, Android, and Google Play. A subscription tier for nonprofits ($375/month) targets the long-tail SMB and mission-driven segment. Go-to-market is sales-led and event-driven, leveraging CP Communications' decades-long relationships with major sports leagues and broadcasters, complemented by community-driven engagement through Tampa Bay Strong (UGC), the Nonprofit Collective, and the Youth News Network. The company has scaled its original programming to 23 shows and surpassed 6 million RHStv viewers, ranking among the Top 15 Lifestyle streaming apps in the U.S.

Red House Streaming was originally launched as a CP Communications business unit in 2018 for the NYC Marathon and formally established as a subsidiary in 2020. It expanded into mobile production (Spark HD in February 2023, Flight in October 2023), launched RHStv in February 2023, signed an exclusive rowing production partnership with Nathan Benderson Park in 2024, installed MRMC robotic cameras in Studio C in March 2026, and entered a strategic alliance with Jersey Shore Entertainment for independent film distribution in May 2026. The company employs 51-100 staff and is led by CEO Kurt Heitmann, a four-time Emmy Award-winning broadcast veteran who grew CP Communications from $2M to over $18M in annual revenue.
