MCAMW Executive Vice President Tom Bello speaking live and captured on MTI’s screen and livestreaming equipment.
Metro Teleproductions got the call from the Mechanical Contractors Association of Metropolitan Washington (MCAMW) to produce a hybrid virtual meeting. MCAMW is a professional trade association offering education, legislative representation, bargaining, and networking opportunities to its 100 member companies. Tom Bello, MCAMW’s executive vice president, was the lead contact on site.
MTI’s Jamie Sides operates camera one to capture the speakers during MCAMW’s two-part livestream event.
The topic was “Construction Industry Trends: Defining the Next Normal,” and this would be a two-camera production and a two-part event. The first part featured approximately 70 people in person in the Congressional Ball Room of the Bethesda Marriott Pooks Hill, with more people watching online over Zoom, for a Q&A. The second part of the event was primarily a virtual lecture that featured speaker Matthew Ramage, the Growth Marketing Director of Trimble, Inc., a Sunnyvale, Calif., software and hardware company focused on connecting connecting all the aspects of the construction industry.

Our equipment included the BlackMagic Atem 2 switcher, Canon C300 Mark II as the main camera, the Panasonic AGDVDX 200 as the reverse camera, along with MacBook Pro MI encoder, Mackie audio board, AJA Ki Pro multichannel recorder, and Shure microphones.
Capturing audio is essential for a complicated livestream event and MTI always has the right equipment on hand.
The mechanics worked perfectly and the client was completely satisfied.
