As the event world has added more virtual and hybrid events, the role of presenters have evolved. It\u2019s now more important than ever that presenters become masters of meetings whether in-person or online. So how do presenters maintain the quality and refinement of their in-person skills for virtual events?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Being a remote presenter offers new challenges for sure, but if you follow these guidelines, it\u2019s easy to produce a sophisticated and compelling event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Preparation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the event is live, keep in mind that you shouldn\u2019t be getting up to do things, so you must be totally prepared to sit in front of the camera for the duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The background you choose is really important. The audience will easily shift their attention from you to the clutter in your setting, so keep things simple and clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lights, Camera, Action!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve all seen the effects of bad lighting and unflattering camera angles on Zoom calls. It’s distracting and sometimes leads to audience frustration or boredom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Body Language and Appearance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s far too easy to become relaxed and complacent when you\u2019re on long virtual events and meetings, but it\u2019s imperative to remind yourself throughout to pay attention to how you\u2019re being viewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Etiquette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s important to remember that you are not on a regular Zoom call. You should present just as you would if you were in-person on a stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We’ve been inundated with Zoom calls and it\u2019s made us a bit complacent. You’re sharing high-value content and should be professional and engaging. When presenting, remember that you are a presenter on a virtual stage and it’s really no different than being in-person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pro Tip: if you\u2019re engaged, having a good time, and enjoying the experience \u2026 your audience will too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n At Encompass, we have unique backgrounds that situate us perfectly to produce high end and complex offerings. We\u2019ve worked in broadcast television, touring entertainment, live sporting events, and countless convention facilities across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have technical design experience and a disciplined process in place that allows us to easily scale events and shift from in-person to virtual without angst. There isn\u2019t much that\u2019s beyond our scope and we love the intensity of putting on events!<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re a planner working to create an event, seeking help with virtual event technology, or simply want to learn more \u2026 we can help!
