As the world begins to settle into our "new normal", it's becoming obvious that events have changed for the foreseeable future, and perhaps forever. While nothing can replicate the energy and excitement that comes from in-person live events, people have also become accustomed to the convenience of presenting and attending events online.

Hybrid events combine the best of the live and virtual worlds.

After more than a year of non-stop online meetings, Zoom fatigue has fully set in. The thought of yet another endless session of talking heads is enough to make us wish we were on a beach somewhere instead of sitting in front of the computer.

While we can’t help with your travel arrangements, VIP Audio Visual does have some solutions for making your next online event more exciting, professional, and engaging.

By now we’ve all grown accustomed to having a grid of heads filling our computer screens. Business meetings have gone from “who’s bringing the donuts” to “hey, you’re muted!”

Now that the initial shock of working remotely is wearing off, more and more businesses are looking for ways to make their virtual events more professional. In a world where everyone from the Fortune 500 to your local elementary school is meeting online, creating an event that stands out in terms of professionalism and engagement is becoming more of a priority.

VIP Audio Visual helps our customers create truly professional virtual events that move you from casual business meetings to broadcast quality.

The COVID-19 crisis has brought the business world to a screeching halt. Fortunately, some of those businesses are now getting back to work, but the world has changed. For the time being, large gatherings of employees or customers are going to be a challenge – requiring business leaders to find new and innovative ways to communicate with their audiences.

At VIP Audio Visual Company, we are doing everything we can to help our customers continue to create compelling experiences by providing a full video production studio at our Pleasanton headquarters. Whether you need to create a live or pre-recorded video experience, our extensive experience with live events and production technology allows us to support virtually any scenario.

A few years ago, live streaming was new and exciting. Now it’s basically expected. Whether it’s an internal event being broadcast to employees worldwide, or a public event targeted at customers or partners, live stream opportunities have become an essential part of the corporate communications world.

As beneficial as the technology is, your audience likely still has a few gripes. The experience of attending a live event is very different than sitting in front of a monitor at your desk, and most live streams are essentially letting the remote audience “peek in” on the live event.

Web streaming isn’t just newfangled expensive technology anymore. It’s mainstream in the business world, with millions of meetings being held online each day. While most of these meetings consist of only a few participants, the same benefits that make online meetings appealing also apply to web streaming your corporate event.
