Question

Large scale Connect Session, 3 Continents, 1000s of participants, tips?

I am doing a large scale webinar using Adobe Connect with 20 different presenters in three different continents.  I will be the host, but will give up host duties to others who will act as technical team members in the three regions (Europe, Americas, Pacific).  This sounds like alot of moving parts, and it is my first show with this software.

Does anyone have any tips on this level of participation?  Any information would be helpful...

Thanks

Congrats. Lots of customers are doing that today. How many participants? 1000's?

And you are running this on your own server or Adobe Hosted?

You using VOIP or using an integrated audio provider?

Suggestions:

1. Hosts should avoid using wireless connections as they are always risky for interference. Best practice is to use wired ethernet.

2. Keep the use of webcams to the start but after the meeting gets going reduce the use of webcam video as sometimes it can be distracting....all depends on the focus of your meeting

3. Mute everyone but the hosts to keeo audio interference and noise to a minimum

4. Suggest that VOIP users have proper headsets designed for VOIP. This is s best practice.

5. Make sure you add a nice background image to the room using preferences...personalize it

6. Use the Q&A Pod to field questions.....download the multi-language chat pod from the Adobe Connect Exchange....trnaslates chat into various languages on the fly....very cool with the U.N.
