The Speaker Hub is also where you’ll go to start your session on the scheduled day and time. This is called “Backstage”. You will join the backstage area for your session and a Linaro moderator will be backstage waiting for you. You can check your devices/screen sharing, etc. and once you’re ready the Linaro moderator will either play your pre-recorded session or start the video for your live session. I will be sharing a screen recording video walking through the steps of how to join your session by end of day March 15. I will email all speakers as well as add the link HERE. 

Adding your presentation to PINE

...

Speakers have the option to pre-record their sessions before the event. These pre-recorded sessions will then be broadcast at the scheduled date and time. Speakers will still be required to be online to answer questions during their broadcasted session time. You can also turn on your camera and mic to answer questions at the end of your session if your pre-recorded video is shorter than 25 mins and leaves enough time for this. 

If you decide to pre-record your session and would like our assistance, please book a time here: https://calendly.com/kristinedill/linaro-virtual-connect-2021 by Friday March 12

If you prefer to pre-record your session on your own you may do so. Tips: Record the session as if it were live - share your screen and go through your slides. Please make sure your camera is on and your video is on and showing while you present your slides. Many people use Zoom or Hangouts for this. You can use whatever video streaming service you're comfortable with. Please just make sure that your video is on and if you are sharing slides please make sure your speaker video is still showing and pinned in the top corner of the video. Please make sure all videos are 25 minutes maximum, we do not have extra time between sessions. Send us your file by uploading unlisted to Youtube or via Dropbox link or Google Drive by Monday March 15 for our review.

For live sessions, you will be added as a speaker and will have access to share your screen, etc. 10 minutes before your session you will be asked to join the backstage area (details on this below). A moderator from Linaro will meet you “backstage” to make sure everything is running smoothly and then go Live. I will be sharing a screen recording video walking through the steps of how to join your session by end of day March 15. I will email all speakers as well as add the link HERE. 

If you would like to have time for a Q&A, please schedule that time into your 25 minutes session block as there is a minimal amount of time between sessions and we cannot extend your time for additional Q&A. You can always move to the chat room area of the tool if you want to continue conversations.
