The snow and ice that crippled Atlanta most of this week finally has subsided. Temperatures should be in the mid-40's today, facilitating the change from ice and snow to water. Like many Atlanta-area businesses, we were impacted by the weather by shoot cancellations and our inability to leave our homes and neighborhoods for the first couple of days in the week.
Fortunately all our shoots rescheduled and by the end of the week, we were back up to full speed and yesterday completed our latest live streaming webcast. Our client needed to reach all of their sales agents, located in nearly every state (including a lucky guy in Hawaii) - 109 in total. Rather than fly them all to Atlanta (quite expensive) or do a conference call (quite boring), they opted for a webcast so viewers could not only see everyone and the related products, statistics and video, but interact by asking questions either by typing them in or calling in live.
We produce webcasts on a regular basis, but this event was especially unique as the client decided to pre-tape more complex sections of the hour-long webcast so their leadership (who aren't actors) could focus on the other aspects of the webcast, including the Q&A session.
There's an ever-growing demand for webcasts in our studio. We've reached as few as 20 people and as many as 2000. Medical, financial and sales presentations are our most frequently booked events and we can handle the entire event with one phone call. We use some of the leading Content Delivery Networks to distribute our live stream to viewers around the country and around the world.
We also work with webcasting companies as the production facility for their events and again, provide a turnkey solution to their production needs. With our extensive experience in live, broadcast television, the move to supporting live web events was an easy one for us and one of the services we're pleased to provide corporate America.
