Meeting Planners
I hope you find this information helpful. If you have any questions feel free
to call me.

Site Survey

A site survey is simply an AV information list for the pre production of a
meeting or event. You will find this very helpful during the process of
planning your event. I have included a simple version that should help
you with a basic corporate meeting. Feel free to copy it and put your logo
on it, that is what I did.

Managing non professional presenters.

A number of years ago, I worked on a project touring the country and
working with non professional presenters at each event. Part of the
project required us to video tape the presentations. We brought in
cameras and lights to record the events. One of the problems we had
was the presenters always wanted the lights turned down. We would turn
them down as low as we could and still make a nice video picture, but the
presenters still complained. About half way through the events, I stared
sending our what I called presenter profiles. These forms asked the
presenters a number of questions from do you need a laser pointer to
what kind of drink would you like. We worked very hard to do everything
we could to make the presenters comfortable on the stage. To our
surprise, they stopped complaining about the lights. We realized that they
were not saying the lights are to bright, but were saying I am
uncomfortable up here. Make your presenters as comfortable as
possible.

Room Layouts

Here are a handful of room layouts. They may help you with ideas for your
own event. If you have layout challenge and you would like some help,
feel free to call me.
