LIVE AND ON-DEMAND WEBCASTING SUPPLIER

Flying Squad Services are an authorised provider of Accordent live and on-demand webcasting products and services to the Australian Government.

We can arrange a full demonstration of the Accordent web-streaming solution in your conference room. This will involve turning a normal lectern-style PowerPoint presentation into a live then on-demand webcast that can be viewed through the firewall on standard government-issue PC browsers.

Once you and your IT team understand the technology, we will work with you to put together the optimum web streaming solution for your needs. This includes advice on streaming media and content management hosting alternatives.

Some projects have a 100% external hosting requirement, where there is no interaction with or impact on the organisation's network. We can supply and setup a complete system to suit your needs, including all web, streaming media and content management hosting services.

Our clients include Federal and State Government departments and agencies, including the Victorian Department of Justice and the Australian Defence Organisation.

A system can be designed and installed for occasional usage live internet broadcasting, with editable on-demand archiving. Or the requirement could be for a robust multi-user, presentation content management system. This can include pre-scheduled auto-start/stop or one-button-start/stop configuration if required.

Equipment is often required to be portable, where a complete webcasting system can be packed into a pair of Pelican cases or built onto a trolley.

We can set up a multi-unit webcasting room, where video, audio and RGB/VGA feeds from different parts of a building can be piped to a central internet distribution point.
 


What is a Rich Media presentation?
Rich Media or Synchronised Electronic Media is an online information delivery phenomenon only now coming of age in Australia. It involves live or post-presentation video, fully synchronised to PowerPoint, Flash and other image formats. This can include secure, pre-scheduled and monitored live organisation-wide broadcasts.

With broadband, live presentations can fly!
8Mbit/s broadband has now been made available to all (and 30Mbit/s to many) in Australia with the launch of our national telcos' latest round of ADSL2+ and Cable Broadband service upgrades.

Organisations requiring instant deployment of presentations by senior professionals are finding Rich Media builds on the way live presentations happen already.

The use of PowerPoint projected from a room based PC or the presenter's own laptop, is almost universally accepted as a must-have aid in lecture delivery. In most situations, video is also always present or optionally available. A Rich Media presentation is one where video, audio, PowerPoint, HTML sites, whiteboards and other visual elements are seamlessly linked into a cohesive package suitable for live or post-event web delivery.

Whatever the on-site audience sees live, the off-site audience can see as well in real time or with an automatic or manually added chapter index immediately post-presentation. In addition, Email-The-Presenter, live-audience-polling, linked downloads, scheduling, certification and other features are available with off-the-shelf software modules.

Online presentations come of age in Australia
The recent rapid growth of personal video presentation methods such as You Tube and Video Blogging have achieved mainstream acceptance. However these do not provide a professional and flexible platform for online synchronised video and PowerPoint delivery.

Let us show you the industry-best-practice method of delivering live, on demand and fully editable presentations online.

Who can benefit from adopting the new Rich Media presentation method?
The Rich Media online delivery method is suited to those with something complex and detailed to say. To the professional required to give compelling presentations regularly with a reach beyond those who can attend locally.

As well, those needing to make presentations involving a visual element such as for example an artist presenting their work online, in tandem with a gallery opening. Or to a government parliamentary sitting where every videotaped word - and PowerPoint slide - is important...

Accordent Rich Media software the industry standard.
Flying Squad Services Pty Ltd use and recommend Accordent hardware and software solutions. Accordent are recognised as making the most powerful and easy to use modular Rich Media software available today.

The users of Accordent's products include a who's-who of international organisations. Some examples are featured HERE
