 Virtual Assemblies:

Price and formats

The two most common questions about virtual assembly shows: How are these programs presented and how much do they cost? Let’s get to it. 

When shopping for a virtual assembly show look for these options. Here is how we do it at Scheer Genius Assembly Shows:

Pricing is simple, with 3 Virtual Assembly options to fit your budget.

1. Live Virtual Show |   $895*

With this option our Virtual Assemblies are streamed to students on the platform of your choice. These shows are performed in real time with live question and answer interaction with your students. *Price can fluctuate based on length of show needed (from 30 to 60 minutes) and other factors. Contact us for precise quote/discount that fits your needs best.

2. Custom pre-produced |  $695

These virtual assemblies are pre-recorded and customized just for your school when you send me a quick video of any greetings or announcements that you want to make. I’ll include your custom video into the presentation. This show is kept available through a private Youtube link and accessible for 7 days, giving students plenty of time to watch again and again.

3. Week long, Full access | $595

You get a private link with full access to a prerecorded show on YouTube for an entire week. Kids can watch it anytime. You choose the consecutive dates that work best for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

I bet you have lots of questions about virtual assemblies for elementary schools, but here are some answers to the most common ones:

What is the difference between the options?

Schools have different technical abilities, so three options for virtual assemblies are offered to best suit your needs:

• Live Virtual Shows are streamed in real-time, so the students watch the show live as it is broadcast from our Michigan studio. Once the show is complete, no replay is available. This is a one-time event. 
• Custom Pre-produced Virtual Shows are recorded in advance and then streamed at a designated date and time of the school’s choosing. Students can all watch together and upon completion of the broadcast, the show is available immediately for repeat viewing for 7 days. Custom means you can pre-record messages from your principal, a teacher or PTA and they will be edited into the show prior to broadcast. Your organization’s name is also watermarked throughout the presentation.
• Full Access Virtual shows — You get private link access to a previously recorded show. While this option is not customized to your group in any way, you get access to the recording for 30 days – an entire month.

How many kids can you accommodate?

Interaction in the live shows is limited only by your zoom account. Most school accounts accommodate 500 viewers. Check with your district’s technician to get advice. 

Is there live interaction with the students?

On zoom or Google Meet I will call on kids throughout the show, asking for group responses, and I will encourage individual questions, comments, participation as well.

If you choose to use YouTube, there cannot be interaction (due to Youtube regulations) but your students have access for a week for Custom Pre-produced shows or for a month for Full Access Virtual shows. 

Who does the hosting of the show?

Your school will host and moderate the show so that I can focus on presenting the material in an engaging and exciting way. Once we choose a date and time, your school will set up the virtual assembly show and send me the link.  

If you chose a custom pre-produced virtual event, then hosting is not needed. Kids watch the program at a set time or day. Once we choose a date and time, the event will be scheduled on Youtube as a premier event and you’ll get a link with the details. You’ll forward that information to all of your teachers, parents and students.

What if we need more than one live presentation of a show?

If you need a second presentation of the live virtual assemblies, scheduled back to back (9am/10am or 1pm/2pm, for example), the cost is an additional $300 for the second round. Each show will last 45 minutes. If you need to have the second show presented on a different day, the additional cost is $400.

Hope this clarifies a bit. Please reach out if you have more questions and let me know when you want to lock in a date. Once you decide to get this on the books, I’ll send you an invoice for the show and also the info you need to have a successful event.  For a better idea of what our virtual assemblies options look like check out this 12 minute sampler video with longer segments from our shows.
