The below requirements will apply for all sessions
- Make sure the camera is 16x9 (landscape)
- Do not have a bright light behind the presenter
- Mount the camera to ensure a steady video
- Ensure you are positioned in a soft room with no background noise and limited objects
- Be as close to the microphone as possible
- Leave some silence at the beginning and end of the recording for editing and transitions
- If you have access to an ethernet cable for a stronger connection, please ensure you use this
- Please disconnect from any VPNs you may be using or shut down other programmes you have open prior to connecting to the Zoom link for a more stable connection

PRE-RECORDED PANEL DISCUSSIONS OR INTERVIEWS
Panel discussions will be pre-recorded.
You will receive a zoom/teams link within a calendar invitation once the time slot has been agreed.
The pre-recording calls are primarily for recording purposes only. Please come prepared and follow the technical requirements above. You will have the opportunity to ask your fellow panellists or moderator any questions before the recording begins. Where possible, we will also arrange a content briefing with the content lead in advance.
Please note all pre-recorded panel discussions or interviews need to be completed by Monday 26th October.
