The Challenge

This project came with two challenges that needed to be overcome. The schedule was an overnight load in at 23:00 the day before the event, with the sessions running from 09:00 until 15:30. The room then had to be cleared of delegates and furniture, and all technical and scenic elements needed to be removed by 17:00, so that the hall could open as a bar the same evening. Failure to clear the hall in time would result in a hefty fine of tens of thousands of pounds. We’re happy to report we were clear of the venue with 7 minutes to spare!

In addition we recorded all presentations, which were then edited and uploaded to the clients YouTube site. A key requirement from the client was to have these videos available to view as soon as possible and we managed this within a 30mins turnaround on each presentation finishing.

The Results

This was the first project for this client and with the logistics challenges, a lot of trust was placed with us to not only produce a great event, but to also avoid financial penalties. The event and load out went so well that we continue to support this annual event to this day.
