Ever find an image on the web and wonder if you can use it in a presentation? Have you shown a YouTube video in a course that is also being streamed online? Are you familiar with the TEACH Act?Do you know what “fair use” really means for you, your instructors and presenters or your organization? Yeah, it’s complicated. But it’s worth the effort to master the basics. Especially now when online presentations, e-learning and virtual courses are being delivered via live webcast and streaming video at an unprecedented rate.

You’ve heard of hybrid events. You know that they can help you expand the reach of your event by including those who simply cannot attend. What should those remote attendees experience? What is the easiest and most reliable way to make that happen?
Of course, hybrid event technology does add some moving parts. What are those? Who manages them? And how do I select a partner I can trust to hide any complexity and just “make it happen?”
When you hear “hybrid event” you might think the key to success is what happens online – the speakers, streaming video, social media and the like.
But the world’s best event producers know different. The most successful hybrid events begin months before registration opens, and most of the magic happens on site, behind the black curtain.

What would motivate a small non-profit to buy an enterprise grade webcasting platform? Could they ever expect to see a return on that kind of investment? And why bother with professional-grade, purpose-built hardware, when software is cheaper and easier, right?
