Karthik : Wow, what an event, very quick summary of what Karthik welcome to event
got us here. 702 teams have blown us away for three days,
and after over XXX qualifying rounds and playoff matches, 9
alliances have been crowned Division Champions and X
teams have been crowned World Skills Champions. They've
earned their way here to the VEX Dome for the Finals of the
2013 VEX Robotics Competition WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP. I
know we're all here to see these amazing alliances in the
finals do their thing..... so let's meet them!!!
1. Learn the language: Common terminology used by AV professionals2. Estimate the cost /Own the Schedule3. In house vs. Production Company4. The latest buzz words5. The timeline and room layout – the road maps to an efficient production6. Safety - It IS your concern
a. IMAGE MAPPING – now affordable for the ballroom and in set designb. DIGITAL SIGNAGE - capture and inform your audience before they even get in the room,c. DIGITAL MEDIA - Smart phones and more
Some things that can influence price when it comes to date, time and location.
Quick turnaround can determine # of crew needed
Similar event in same space can reduce cost
Location can dictate power requirements, rigging, built ins, lighting, etc.

Budget
Find out in advance who your point of contact is on site. Respect the chain of command.
Hold a production meeting to go through the run of show and script.
Consider your technical director to be your partner.
What is the purpose of the event? What are the goals?
Wired refers to the cord. The microphone is tethered.
Wireless allows freedom of movement.
Handheld should be held like an ice cream cone.
Lavaliere clips to lapel or clothing.
Lectern mic sits on the lectern or table top.
Omnidirectional picks up surrounding sound. Good for a choir.
Cardioid is one direction. Best for speakers.
Always use a mic if it’s provided.
Allow speakers to perform a sound check before guests arrive. It can be uncomfortable if they aren’t used to speaking on a microphone.

Floor based refers to speakers on stands
Rigged is hung from the ceiling
More labor, time, expense in rigged, but provides a better coverage. Allows the sound to be unobstructed.
Overhead refers to permanently installed speakers. Less dynamic. Can cause fatigue for the listeners because the brain becomes confused when the speaker is in front and the sound is overhead. Good for background music.
Point source refers to a single cone and radiates sound in a hemispherical pattern. Typically seen in meeting rooms.
Line array refers to a number of loudspeakers coupled together. Provides a more evenly distributed sound pattern.
Subwoofer is dedicated to lower frequencies.
Monitors allow the musicians to hear what the audience hears.
Front/Side fills fill in those areas.

A mixer is needed whenever you have more than one sound source. Count the sources to determine the number of channels.
Playback refers to the method you’re using to playback recording sound such as a computer, ipod or cd player.
A direct box converts line level signal to mic level. Used to run a computer or keyboard through a mixer without overdriving the input. It makes the loud sound softer to avoid distortion.
Equalizer allows you to manipulate frequencies.

Screen size
Aspect ratio 4:3 or 1024x768 is square format, 16:9 or 1920x1080 or 1280x720 is wide screen. Plan screens accordingly.
Make sure the projector can handle HD or it will fail if you design HD presentation. Tell the AV supplier if you plan to present HD.
HDMI and DVI are both digital. DVI is typically from the computer, HDMI is from video. VGA and S Video are analog. Determined by the computer.
