Events are Changing

The past twenty-four months have seen virtual events rise from an option born of necessity to a powerful tool for connecting people and ideas. Still, a successful virtual event shares much with its traditional live counterpart. Theme, pacing, media, and attendee involvement is critical to delivering a message that inspires and motivates long after the final presentation.

As event producers our goal is to create community and invite people into a shared experience. Nothing will replace the live event and how it connects with an audience, but virtual platforms offer opportunities to engage attendees not available in a traditional event environment. Utilizing chat, polls, and other features provide additional channels to communicate with attendees and we’ve learned how to make the most of these features.

The core of Sutherland Visual Media and Events is supported by a wide range of associates who bring the specialized knowledge of writing, directing, design, production, presentation and project management to all of our work. This close association of multiple talents extends to our clients every conceivable service throughout the project. By utilizing a large pool of resources, we are able to design our team to the specific needs of each project.

Virtual event platforms and the technology that support them are constantly evolving. Every event has specific needs, be that a multi-day sales meeting or a non-profit’s annual fundraising gala. That’s why we’re always searching for the best solution for your event.

This collaborative approach with our clients, our vendors, and our team members enables us to utilize a wide range of perspective and experience, which results in a superior outcome. By providing an atmosphere in which everyone can do their best work and feed off the energy and achievement of the other team members, the collaborative, team-centered approach is beneficial to everyone involved, most importantly you the client.
