Live streaming an event, such as a town hall, keynote session or all-hands meeting allows presenters to reach distant audiences, increasing the impact of those events. With ever-increasing airline fares and hotel rates, live streaming allows better time utilization and reduced employee travel costs.

While most live streams and webcasts are used by companies with multiple offices throughout a region, or the country, live streams can be used when there is not sufficient capacity at the primary venue for all the employees within the building or campus. We've streamed to conference rooms on other floors as well as other cities - and viewing parties are a good way to keep employees connected and engaged.

To learn more about how live streaming and webcasting can best serve your company or organization, contact Orlando Webcasts. We're here to answer your questions.

Orlando Webcasts provides clients the option of monetizing their live stream events. Workshops, seminars and conferences can all benefit from live streaming, adding virtual attendees, no matter their location. Adding the pay-per-view option makes sense for events where the content, such as continuing education credits, are earned for attendees. Pay-per-view can also defray costs for event sponsors when important and marketable information is shared during the session.

Events can be scheduled, a branded landing page created and user-friendly, integrated credit card processing enabled. Events can run part of a day, all day or even multiple days. You can view a recent event here: https://zija.ce21.com/item/zija-summit-move-2018-241108

Once registered, attendees receive email reminders of the event and tips on logging in and viewing the live stream, all in an effort to minimize issues once the event is live. Live support via a toll-free number and email is available should viewers encounter difficulties in viewing the live stream.

On the day of the live event, attendees will login to a browser-based web player that includes a video feed and an optional slide deck feed in the left panel of the page. The right panel includes program information, schedules, speaker bios, handouts, chat and other customized options for the event.

As the popularity of live streaming and webcasting grows in the corporate and professional world, we receive inquiries about our services and how an Orlando Webcasts live video stream can be incorporated into conferences, town halls, promotions and other events.

Live streaming from an Orlando convention hotel.

Nearly any event can be live streamed with the primary factor being the availability of a high-speed Internet connection with a minimum upload speed of 7Mbps, though higher speeds could be required for certain events. Contacting the venue IT department and confirming the connection speeds, along with any associated costs, is the first step toward a live stream event.

Once the internet access has been verified, there are several possible routes to live streaming your event. First, you need to determine how your live event will reach it's intended audience.

Will a free service like Facebook Live or Twitter/Periscope reach your audience? These outlets can reach tens of thousands of people and are frequently used for promotional events lasting less than one hour.

Is a paid service like UStream, Vimeo or GoToWebinar a better choice? These platforms can be password-protected, allowing only those you choose to view the live stream.

Your third option is a webcasting service which allows even more security, better integration with PowerPoint slides and video playback, a Q&A function to ask the presenter questions, detailed analytics, custom branding, access to past events and other benefits. This option can also be the most expensive depending on the size of the audience, length of the event and other factors.

Choosing the correct distribution method is an important decision. You want to ensure that the live stream reaches the stakeholders who need to see it. Orlando Webcasts works with all of the options listed above and can help you determine the best solution for your event.

Now that you've determined how you want to reach your audience, it's time to decide how the video and audio are going to be filmed at the event site. 

Depending on where the event is held, you may need to work with the in-house Audio/Visual company to secure wireless microphones, a camera, lighting and other gear they are contracted to provide conferences and meetings at that site. Large events may already have IMAG (image magnification) cameras in the general session rooms. In those cases, we work with the A/V company to receive a feed from the camera and use that feed as the source for the live stream event.

In other locations, such as office buildings or smaller hotels/venues, we may need to supply the camera, microphones and lighting. Each event is unique, so we offer customized solutions to fit the needs of each project.

On Independence Day, 2018, much of the country will take the day off and enjoy time with friends and family. Many will cap the evening watching a fireworks show.

If you're in Orlando, you have some of the best fireworks displays in the nation on a nightly basis (looking at you, WDW) and Visit Orlando has published a list that includes the more popular fireworks shows in the region.

The City of Orlando features a great evening of entertainment at one of our favorite spots - Lake Eola.

No matter where you watch fireworks, we wish you a happy, safe and memorable Fourth of July!

We'll be out celebrating the 4th of July as well, so give us a call on the 5th of July to discuss your webcasting, encoding and live streaming needs. Thank you!

Orlando is the number one meeting destination in the country, with thousands of events occurring every year at the Orange County Convention Center and the many surrounding convention hotels and centers.

"Orlando continues to invest in our industry every year, with even more new additions to our expansive convention center district, innovative new venues and attractions, and more quality dining options for every type of group," said Visit Orlando President and CEO George Aguel. "To receive the honor of once again being recognized by Cvent as the No. 1 meetings destination in the country, only reinforces our ongoing commitment to this important industry" reported Cvent in it's annual report of top meeting destinations.

An increasing number of those meetings stream keynote and general sessions, as well as top breakout sessions to associates, customers and other stakeholders, and Orlando Webcasts streams many of those sessions.

After conducting a site survey for our client, we worked with a staging company for pipe and drape as well as a lighting company to provide two lighting towers for the meeting area, which was located inside their office building.

Our tech tables were located in an area near the back of the room and included a primary and backup encoder, slide laptop, playback laptop and backup laptop. Two camera feeds and the slide feed were switched into the encoded live stream. We also provided six microphones for the presenters and handheld microphones for audience Q&A.
