Sample Virtual Town Hall Timetable

Lime Crane prides itself on being able to deliver a reliable, high-quality service quickly. Our system allows for events to be scheduled, tested and conducted in as little as 72 hours in advance. Our production team will consult with you and guide you through the steps necessary for a successful video webcast. Partnering with Lime Crane means everything is custom tailored to your needs.  An example timetable for the webcast process follows.

Day 1 – Information Gathering and Scope for Your First Event

  1. We discuss your presentation, the speakers, and your online audience size.
  2. We send our “best webcam video practices” guide to all on-camera presenters.

  4. The webcast URL and password for your event will be generated for distribution.

Day 2 – Network Test and Video Chat Dry-run
