Organizing and Preparing for Your Session

We recommend preparing a “Run of Show” or outline for how you want your session to unfold. Things to include in your run of show would be topics you wish to cover, a list of questions for your guests or presenters as well as pre-populated poll questions to be included for your audience to participate in.

Below is a list of suggested best practices when on-camera and presenting to ensure the best experience for you and your viewers:

• Clean and simple background to minimize distractions (if not using a virtual background)
• Wear solid colors without branding if irrelevant to the event
• Have good natural lighting if possible
• Cell phone/smart-watch on vibrate or silent to minimize distractions
• Arrive early backstage (if possible) to ensure no technical issues
• Keep an eye on the time and/or ‘On Stage Chat’ to assure you are not going over or under time
• Access event using a Desktop computer in a Chrome browser as opposed to a mobile device or tablet
• Have fun and engage with the audience via Chat, Q&A, and Polls
