The Audiovisual Service of the European Commission situated in the Berlaymont building offers various kinds of assistance and technical facilities to TV and radio journalists:
Requests for technical assistance will be met on a "first come, first served" basis giving absolute priority to items involving a Commission representative (the President, Commissioners, Spokespersons, senior staff members of the Commission who can speak on the record) and meeting all or some of the following criteria:
The use of crews and editing facilities is restricted to a maximum of 2:30 hours (including filming, editing and transmission) for each user.
For recurrent use (weekly/monthly), the Audiovisual Planning team should be contacted to discuss the project.
The audiovisual planning team should be contacted for reservations and information on the availability of our resources on the preferred date and time: planning-audiovisual@ec.europa.eu / Tel: +32 2 295 21 23
When transmission services are required, the audiovisual unit can offer a number of connectivity means via its contractors and partners. In such cases, the bookings should be made and paid for by the requesting user to the respective contractor/partner. Further details can be obtained from the Audiovisual Planning office.
