Shawne’s team is committed to creating the best environment for your program. Her A/V requests are below. Shawne is flexible and will work with your A/V capabilities and your technicians to maximize the effectiveness of your platform.

Equipment:

• Wireless lavaliere (tie clip) microphone
• DVD player
• One powerpoint slide to be emailed prior to event
• Hand-held microphone
• Please place AV control center and an AV technician in the back of the room.

Staging:

• If possible, please set the room up theater style with a center aisle.
• Position the first row about five to six feet from the stage.
• Position the stage in the middle of the front wall of the room with steps off the front.
• A small, draped table on the stage to the side for water and miscellaneous items would work great.

Room Environment:

• A bright stage will help keep audience focus at the front of the room. Shawne will use the entire stage area and many times come right into the audience. If the room has any spotlights, please aim them for a general wash of the front of the stage.
• People are more alert in brightness. Dim the lighting on the screens but keep the house lights up full.

Temperature:

• A cool room produces an alert audience, a warm room produces a drowsy audience. A cold room produces a distracted audience, and a hot room produces an irritated audience. The actual room temperature should be somewhere between 68-70 degrees Fahrenheit.

Recording of presentation:

• Shawne’s materials are unique and protected by copyright. We welcome your audio and/or video recording. A separate recording agreement is required prior to the event.
