Keynote/Conference Audio
Client will provide a professional sound system appropriate for the venue. Tara needs a cordless, lapel microphone (Wireless Lavalier). No headset microphones. (Please have extra batteries available.)
Most hotels/convention centers will provide a 4-channel mixer. This works great.
Tara will also need access to an AC. (A single electrical plug next to her mini-disk.)
Keynote/Conference Room Setup
The distance from the first row of seats/tables to the stage should be no more than 8′.
Please arrange to have the platform on the “long” wall of a rectangle-shaped room. This maximizes the good seats, and minimizes the bad seats. Avoid setting up the room “like a bowling alley” with people looking the long-way at the stage. We need to eliminate as many of the “bad” seats as possible.
Table
Tara will need a very small table for use on stage. Approximate size should be 3′ wide by 2′ deep x 3 ‘ tall
Keynote/Conference Video Magnification
For especially large groups (over 450-500 people) arrange for video magnification. Call us if you have any questions.
Note: The main idea is that Tara must be easy to see and hear. Excellent sound and lighting will help you to the get the most “Bang for your Buck.” It is nearly this simple: the better the lights and sound, the better the program. These details can – and will – make the difference between a standing ovation and a complete flop. Please call us if you have any questions, or if there is anything we can do to help make this event a success.
