Online and virtual keynotes, conferences, and guest talks demand a lot of media to hold people’s attention. Most speakers work off the energy in the room. Rightly so, this helps them hold attention and interact with attendees. But when speaking to a group of staid profile photos or black squares in Zoom, that energy is lost. The result is a slow, sometimes plodding talk because they’re just taking their in-person talks and doing it in front of a webcam.
For remote teams, large global audiences, or nationwide membership organizations seeking a virtual or Zoom-friendly speaker: this is a solved problem and has been for over 75 years!

Online video, when done well, is captivating. Video causes people to laugh, cry, and even open or change their minds about a world full of things worth discovering.
