In light of Coronavirus (COVID-19), we want to let you know that you have options! Events are canceling left and right, but you don’t have to cancel yours. Streaming your event lets you keep your attendees engaged and most of all, healthy!

Do you already have the capability to stream?

If so, that’s great! Brushfire offers a paid streaming solution. Simply sell tickets and registrations like normal, host your event entirely online, and your attendees can view your password-protected stream! Switching to a streaming event is easy. (Adding a simulcast to your event works the same way!)

Unfamiliar with streaming?

Streaming traditionally is viewed as a complex feature for most events. There are normally three components when it comes to streaming: an encoder (the hardware), a cloud storage platform, and the video player. With the progressions of social platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Vimeo. Streaming is now more attainable than ever to the normal event organizer.

If your organization already owns cameras and broadcast equipment but doesn’t stream, check out this blog. The team at Resi has put together a nice look at encoders, switchers, and higher-end items.

If your organization is ready for a custom solution and needs help with equipment, set-up, and more, our partner, Sardius, could be a great fit! Read more about Sardius here.
