Short Summary
StreamCity supported a half-day hybrid event in downtown Vancouver with Zoom platform management, three-camera capture, moderated online participation, in-room Q&A mic runner workflow, and a program recording delivered post-event.
Intro
Hybrid events are two audiences at once. The room needs clear speech and pacing. Remote attendees need consistent audio, clean visuals, and a platform experience that’s actively managed.
For this half-day federal government event in downtown Vancouver, StreamCity supported hybrid execution and multi-camera recording so both audiences stayed connected and the program was captured cleanly for post-event use.
Event Context
The venue provided baseline presentation AV, including projection and house audio support. StreamCity’s role was hybrid production management and recording capture, including:
-integrating with venue AV
-managing Zoom execution
-supporting hybrid Q&A workflow
-capturing a three-camera program recording for post-event use
Because hybrid depends on multiple systems working together, preparation mattered as much as show day execution. A venue walkthrough and an evening-before setup were used to confirm the workflow ahead of doors.
The Challenge
This event required clean coordination across:
-the room audio and presenters
-remote participation and remote presenter audio returning into the room
-real-time online Q&A integration
-multi-camera recording expectations and deliverables
Hybrid gets messy when nobody owns the handoffs. Patch points, platform responsibilities, Q&A flow, and recording expectations all needed to be confirmed early so the live program didn’t turn into on-the-fly problem solving.
What StreamCity Delivered
StreamCity delivered a structured hybrid workflow designed to hold up under live conditions, including:
-Zoom platform execution and monitoring
-moderated online participation support
-three-camera capture for clean multi-angle coverage
-audio routing integration between house AV and the hybrid platform
-remote presenter audio returned into the room
-in-room Q&A workflow supported with mic runners
-program recording delivered post-event
Why the Walkthrough and Evening-Before Setup Mattered
Hybrid becomes predictable when unknowns are removed early. The walkthrough and evening-before setup confirmed:
-tech positioning and space constraints
-signal routing and patch points with house AV
-platform monitoring workflow and responsibilities
-Q&A handoff between online moderator and in-room program
-camera positioning and sightlines
-recording workflow and delivery readiness
Outcome
In-room attendees experienced a clean speaking program with structured Q&A workflow. Remote attendees had a managed Zoom experience with moderated participation. The program was captured with three-camera coverage and delivered as a recording package for post-event use.
