Exploring with the Experts
The session “Media Servers vs. Screen Switchers” on Wednesday, June 8, will address the age-old questions: do I need a media server for my event or a screen switcher? Or both? Kevin Ring of Nationwide Video will discuss the relevancy and use-cases of both and help attendees determine the appropriate gear needed when planning an event.
On Thursday, June 9, the session “Intro to Live Streaming Design for Performance Spaces” will feature a panel of experts who will break down the basics of creating and operating a professional live streaming system for small and medium venues. They will discuss camera and microphone selection and positioning, various infrastructure approaches, options for controlling the stream, adding production effects, and much more. The panelists include Paul Richards of HuddleCamHD and PTZOptics, Alesia Hendley from Audinate, Rebecca Sullins from ProMedia Audio Video, Rachael Harris from American Express, and Jim Bask of Broadfield Distributing.
In addition, Jesse Miller, CEO of Midtown Video, will lead the workshop “Streaming with Remote Guests” on Thursday, June 9. Attendees will learn tips and techniques to make productions stand out for quality and cohesive storytelling when guests appear from remote locations. Topics will include audio mixes, video encoding and delivery methods, general conferencing software like Teams and Zoom, and manufacturer-specific platforms.
