请求事件技术支持

In addition to classroom support, 媒体服务 serves an essential role in providing audio visual technical support for campus sponsored events, whether in person or virtual. 

Traditionally, in person events have been fairly easy to plan. 近年来,随着 the increased need for online/virtual access by participants, event planning has become 稍微复杂一点. Videoconferencing tools, such as Zoom, have made it possible for us to host hybrid events with some participants physically present while others are 从远程位置访问. 这句话 “直播” has become very popular and is often used to refer to a range of virtual experiences. 如你所愿 an event, it is important to know exactly what your needs are so we can assist in matching the event with the most effective and cost efficient approach. 

BEFORE SUBMITTING YOUR REQUEST, IT IS IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER WHAT TYPE OF EVENT YOU 需要:

What is live streaming and when might I need it? 

  • 直播ing is generally a professional quality video production to be broadcast in real-time to an online destination like Vimeo, Facebook, YouTube, etc. 直播 is usually reserved for very high-profile college events. 你可以为了一个小小的, 私人团体,或大量公众观众. 流通常由一个组织 person who serves as the host or director: inviting guests to participate, screen 分享或播放准备好的视频. 直播ing involves data compression and encoding that allows for playback that can be adjusted to ones’ internet bandwidth. 这种方法 can get complicated and expensive when your event needs a multiple camera shoot or 其他附加设备. The college is not currently staffed to accommodate live streaming, so this type of 请求 requires extra lead time (a minimum of 2 weeks in advance) to hire a vendor, coordinate and plan, and determine how the service is funded. 

Do I need a Zoom meeting, a Zoom large meeting, or a Zoom webinar?

  • 变焦会议 allows you to host interactive sessions where you might want to have lots of audience participation or break your session into smaller groups using breakout rooms. 参与者 are typically allowed to mute/unmute their own audio/video and are also allowed to 分享屏幕. This is the standard Zoom setup that most of us are quite familiar With和is best used for situations where you want a high level of interaction with participants, situations where you might need to incorporate remote teaching/learning, for example.
  • 缩放大型会议 license allows the number of participants to be increased to 1000. 除此之外, all the regular 变焦会议 features apply. 我们有一个大型会议许可证 can be 请求ed as needed through 媒体服务. 
  • 放大网络研讨会 allows you to broadcast an event/meeting to 1000 attendees. 作为主持人或小组成员, you can share your screen, video, and audio in a webinar, while attendees can use the chat or question and answer options to interact with the host and panelists. 在线研讨会 can require pre-registration, with the option for the host to add custom registration questions, or registration can be turned off for attendees to join by simply clicking 网络研讨会时的链接. Typically, webinar attendees do not interact with 一个另一个. This is designed for large events, such as community events and public-facing 讲座. We have 2 放大网络研讨会 licenses which can be 请求ed as needed.
