Live webcasts don’t have to be complicated and over budget. ESI Video can scale any live webcast to fit your budget and your event. The USC Alumni Association and the USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences invited ESI Video to the Stanford Park Hotel in Menlo Park where they hosted a panel discussion titled, “Does Diversity Matter? The Economic Case for Diversity in Tech.” An evening featuring USC alumni experts who are transforming the tech industry by prioritizing diversity and inclusion initiatives, building a STEM pipeline and enhancing hiring programs. The evening will included dinner and a networking reception.

The school requested a professional production team handle the webcast live on facebook to share with their alumni and students. Because the hotel was a small venue facebook provided a convenient way to share this important topic with the world.

ESI Video was tasked to keep the budget low and operation simple, so the setup only required a single camera package, DVX200 with Libec zoom control and Manfrotto tripod, a laptop and AJA U-TAP SDI USB capture device to make it all happen. This convenient, portable, one person operation was a perfect combination to provide a professional presentation. To watch the panel discussion check out the video below.
