Roadshow “Photovoltaics on commercial roofs”
A broad-based roadshow organized by the Ministry of Industry, Climate Protection and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia provided information on how the power of the sun can also be used profitably for companies. The Streamboxstudios event team was commissioned with the entire audiovisual production in the halls of the participating local chambers of industry and commerce as well as the realization of smooth live streams.
The analog and digital participants received first-hand information in short presentations. Experts from NRW.Energy4Climate and the State Association for Renewable Energies (LEE) provided an insight into the basic framework conditions, followed by examples of best practice and reports from industry. Questions from the audience on site and from the digital space were answered in detail in a concluding discussion round.
Four image sources, two cameras and two laptops, were displayed alternately in individually created screen layouts so that the viewers could be offered a variety of images on the digital end devices. In addition, graphics and belly bands were displayed at the appropriate time.
The ZOOM platform was used at the start of the roadshow in fall 2021. On the one hand, to have an option for participant administration (keyword registration and admission), and on the other hand, to provide an opportunity for queries via the integrated chat module.
With the start of season 2, in early summer 2022, the livestream was realized via YouTube.
From a producer’s point of view, YouTube offers the ideal platform for broadcasting streams directly in HD quality without prior registration — as required by ZOOM. Furthermore, statistical information (hits, stream quality, etc.) is displayed very simply and clearly.
A QR code regularly displayed during the stream and a matching hash tag led to a specially created SLIDO page. In addition to the improved possibility of moderating the chat, the feedback from digital users could also be transmitted to a screen in the hall and displayed for the guests on site.
