The British Academy
Online Conference – Material Cultures of Eastern Africa
Global academic excellence, delivered with broadcast precision.
Behind the broadcast
-
The challenge.
A two-day academic conference with 24 speakers across 17 countries required precise coordination, timing accuracy, and stable, high-quality streaming delivery.
-
The solution.
We managed the platform, ran rehearsals, and used clickers and countdowns to control flow. Direction and cues ensured seamless handovers and consistent pacing.
-
The results.
Over 100 paid delegates joined the conference live. Speakers described the event as calm, professional and perfectly managed, the standard for modern academic broadcasting.
“It’s been wonderful to work with Simon and his team as ever, especially this last week as we threw some challenging, complicated formats with lots of moving parts at them — and they handled everything so smoothly, with great patience and to such a high standard.”
