For professional speakers, technical crew members at live and virtual events are an essential part of successful presentations.
How can you make sure you’re a speaker the tech crew loves to work with, partnering smoothly to get the best AV result for your audience and client?
In this session, you’ll get a rare glimpse behind the sound desk, hearing directly from tech specialist Jared Lattouf from Scene Change about how to create a great technical experience and the traps to avoid.
In this Q and A-style session, Jared will chat with Troy Love from dynamic duo Troy and Zara and their company Great Talk, who’ll bring his own technical insights from more than 10,000 appearances on radio, stage and screen and as a passionate “gear-head”!"
You’ll take away:
- How to plan ahead for a seamless technical experience
- The importance of the technical check; what to bring and what questions to ask
- Expert advice on whether speakers should bring their own equipment
- How to help the tech team do their job and be an easy speaker to work with
