Baltimore Convention Center & Projection Debut Virtual Studio for IAEE CEM Week

SPRINGFIELD, Va., Sept. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Projection, a national audiovisual company, in partnership with the Baltimore Convention Center launched a week of programming in support of IAEE's CEM week, held Aug. 24-28, 2020.

"The meetings and events industry is currently a rapidly changing landscape. Having tools that offer the ability to pivot and easily meet new challenges is imperative for the continuation of business. Our partnership with Projection allowed us to quickly rise to the occasion with IAEE's Baltimore CEM Week. The Baltimore Convention Center's new virtual studio brought attendees into our facility and offered a bird's-eye view tour of our tourist hot spots, keeping Baltimore top-of-mind for all involved," said Peggy Daidakis, Executive Director — Baltimore Convention Center.

For the IAEE CEM program, Projection and the Center team worked closely with its services partners Centerplate, Edlen Electric, and M.C. Dean, Inc. to record presentations and to produce live programming that was broadcast during the weeklong virtual meeting.

"Our CEM Week partners at the Baltimore Convention Center and Visit Baltimore fully embraced our virtual program goal to infuse their city's products, services and hospitality. From the Projection virtual studio at the Center, students were provided with videos, a drone tour of the city, an inside peek at how the Center is operating and more. While the event was virtual, the partnership showcased the great City of Baltimore in a unique way and we appreciate their community support," said Marsha Flanagan, M.Ed, IAEE VP of Learning Experiences.

As the meeting industry considers what the resumption of live meetings and events will look like, the BCC studio demonstrated the capabilities that will be necessary to seamlessly support presentation content that originates from the venue during an event and reaches an external, virtual meeting audience.

The Baltimore Convention Center Studio is capable of hosting in-person presenters, panels, and virtual participants. The studio includes turn-key, television-quality broadcast tools for graphics, video, and lighting. Projection offers safe and socially distanced production services to deliver successful virtual and hybrid presentations.
