Sadly, we’ve all been to an event that hasn’t really hit the mark in terms of attendee engagement. Whether it was a poorly put-together violin recital for your child, a school assembly, or a conference that had the audience falling asleep, that event is ingrained in our minds – and not in a good way!
So, how can we maximise attendee engagement at your next event so that it’s remembered as an absolute hit?
The professionals at AVisual Productions are happy to give you a few pointers. Here’s how to maximise your attendee engagement and keep your audience’s ears pricked up at all times.
Using professional audio equipment
Part of increasing attendee engagement at your event has to do with keeping your audience listening. If your audio equipment is subpar, and your speakers are struggling to be heard clearly, or their microphones are constantly dropping in and out, it’s going to make for a pretty unlistenable experience.
AVisual Productions use state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment, providing crystal clear audio to keep your attendees engaged at all times. Their sound systems are immersive, and they specialise in panoramic sound; this uses speaker placement, equalisation and other techniques to give your audience an enhanced listening experience.
Live polls and questionnaires
Audience engagement is often seen as a two-way street. Not only should your audience be listening to what’s being said, but they should also be contributing to make for an ultra-engaging event.
Live polls and questionnaires are a perfect way to turn your event from a one way street (a speaker delivering information to the audience) into an open conversation where everyone is involved and engaged. Conferences are a particularly great setting for this technique. By setting up electronic tablets for audience members, you can pose questions to the audience in a poll or questionnaire format, and ask for their opinions.
You can then display the data in a matter of seconds, adding another layer of engagement to your event. AVisual Productions can help you achieve something like this at your next event.
LED display walls
Visual displays have come a long way over the past few years. From old-school projectors in the ‘60s, to those big boxy televisions in the ‘90s, to smart boards in the ‘00s, our ability to engage audiences via visuals has just become better and better. Now, we have the ability to transform any event venue into a completely different environment, thanks to large LED display walls – the best way to make an awesome visual impression on your attendees.
