Liquid AI / AMD Fireside Chat

Fireside Chat Video Production in San Francisco

Capitola Media provided video coverage and still photography for a Liquid AI hackathon and fireside chat in San Francisco, featuring Liquid AI co-founder Ramin Hasani. The recorded conversation with AMD brings a founder’s perspective to the technology and ideas behind the company. Our coverage combined the fireside chat with corporate event photography and supporting b-roll from the developer gathering.

Inside the Conversation

In the conversation with AMD, Ramin Hasani discusses AI model architecture, including the widespread use of transformers, before turning to physical AI and the role of PCs in AI computing. The exchange also touches on the event’s “Hack the Edge” theme and software optimization, connecting the broader technology discussion with the work of developers building practical applications.

A Fireside Chat Within a Developer Event

The San Francisco shoot brought together two complementary subjects: the hackathon and the fireside conversation featuring Hasani. A founder discussion gives a technical event a personal perspective, connecting the company's direction with someone involved in building it. Photography captures the speakers, their interaction and the setting in a form that can stand on its own, while b-roll adds a motion record of the event.

Our live event production work includes assignments like this alongside conferences, panels and company meetings. We plan camera coverage and deliverables with our clients, taking the speakers, schedule and audience into account.

Still Photography

This project connects our commercial and corporate photography with our work for AI and emerging technology companies. We filmed the conversation and photographed the speakers on location in San Francisco.
