What Lyon Video does

Live Media Group is a privately held US mobile broadcast facility provider and full-service live event production company headquartered in the Columbus, Ohio area, founded in 2008 by CEO Brad Sexton. The company operates three wholly owned divisions — Live Media (mobile production trucks ranging from 53' double expando UHD mobile units to 20' production/uplink hybrids), TNDV Television (multi-camera production services for concerts, award shows, worship events, red carpets, and corporate events), and GameTime Productions (experienced crew staffing for events of any scale). Together the divisions deliver turnkey live broadcast solutions from concept through completion for event organizers, broadcast networks, and production companies.

The underlying technology stack is capital-intensive and physical rather than software-defined: a diverse fleet of mobile production vehicles with UHD broadcast capability, satellite uplink functionality, and multi-camera production infrastructure deployed as rented or fully serviced facilities. The company markets itself as an alternative mid-sized provider offering flexibility and personalized service versus larger competitors, supported by what it describes as an elite team of industry-experienced professionals.

Revenue is generated through two professional-services streams: rental and deployment of mobile production trucks and broadcast facilities, and event-based multi-camera production services delivered by in-house crews. Pricing is quote-based and tailored to specific event requirements, with no publicly disclosed rates. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales — direct engagement with broadcast networks, event organizers, and production companies — supplemented by a website storefront and industry referrals. The company is privately held, founder-controlled, with no disclosed parent, institutional investors, or funding rounds.
