Rory has discovered some ideas for room set up that will add to the success of your meeting. These are not requirements, only suggestions we’ve leaned from experience.
- Use your own speaker sound system, rather than the speakers in the ceiling. You’ll get a much higher quality of sound.
- Place speakers in the front, middle and back of the room.
- Use an additional light source for the presenter.
- Set up the front row as close to the speaker as possible.
- Less is more. Do not over set the room. If you are expecting 250 attendees, set the room for 250 or slightly less.
- Ask attendees to turn off cell phones and pagers.
- Use a dark back drop for the speaker.
- When video taping use BetaSP tape rather than VHS for better quality
