Over the past six years the Lens Awards for Corporate Video has built its position as the most important awards programme for corporate film makers. To build on the momentum of this, Communicate magazine is launching LensLive – a one-day conference dedicated to exploring the power of video, animation and visual storytelling in corporate communications. Taking place on 4 November 2025, ahead of the Lens Awards ceremony in February 2026, the conference offers a timely platform to dive into the trends, tools and techniques shaping visual content today.

Since the launch of the Lens Awards, the role of video in shaping corporate narrative, engaging stakeholders and building brand reputation has grown exponentially. Today, visual content is not just a complement to communication, it’s a strategic asset. From TikTok to corporate documentaries, from motion graphics to immersive formats, comms leaders are using video to captivate and connect with their various stakeholder audiences.

In a landscape driven by attention, authenticity and innovation, companies must evolve their visual language to resonate with ever-shifting audiences. With the rise of generative AI, increased demand for transparency, and the need for agile, purpose-driven storytelling, there’s never been a more urgent time to master visual content.

LensLive will bring together the creators, strategists and storytellers defining what’s next in visual communications. Through real-world case studies, expert insight and practical advice, this must-attend conference will explore how the most forward-thinking organisations are using video and visual media to drive engagement and deliver results.

This is a must-attend event for comms and brand professionals who want to stay ahead in an increasingly visual world. Whether you're exploring new formats, building a video-first strategy or navigating the latest production technologies, LensLive will inform and inspire.

Expect an engaging programme packed with keynote talks, panel debates, hands-on roundtables and networking opportunities – all designed to empower attendees to harness the full potential of video in brand communications.

The venue and full agenda will be announced soon – follow us on social media for updates and speaker announcements.
