Regardless where we stand on the political spectrum, we can all agree the importance of being heard. That's where the A/V Install Nerds at 22nd Avenue love to geek out. From small courtrooms to larger government buildings - the installation, maintenance and successful implementation of quality audiovisual is one of the many flavors of 22nd Avenue Entertainment Logistics.

Which is why we wanted to take a moment to share the work of another contractor who installed the audiovisual system used at the United States Senate Chambers.

We share the same passion and desire to ensure any installation is quality through and through. RIght down to matching the color of your existing 200 year old furniture! Check it out:

​With all #graphics, #audio and #direction recorded live in a #onetake - this allowed for the client to shoot multiple shows within the allotted time and receive a #sameday product to publically share as soon as they like.
 
While #staying #safe and putting our equipment through detailed sanitization processes after each shoot... We're taking the guess work out of #efficient and professional video #production. 

​Delivering great #results for  #training videos, #cooking #classes, human interest pieces - as well as #health and #wellness related material; considering giving us call today to talk about your next project or idea, we'd love to hear from you! 

​For setup times; we prefer at least one hour prior to your meeting. Most meetings will benefit from a three-camera setup, with up to six microphones. Depending on the equipment available on-site, we also will provide screens up to 55" so that participants may be seen during the teleconference.
 
Once we go live, the technician will help moderate the meeting if needed - directing public comments and feedback where appropriate.
 
Once the meeting concludes, pack-out usually takes 15 to 30 minutes and we are on the road shortly after.

​We were approach by a private insurance group for a virtual meeting solution, which was seamless and trouble free.
 
Before coming to us, they had tried to used their laptops in a zoom meeting space - keeping some board members 6 feet apart - while connecting other board members remotely via Zoom.
 
This approach introduced unreliable results, with bad feedback between microphones (e.g. that high pitched squealing noise) and constant audio problems between the remote participants and the boardroom attendees.

So when it comes to production your next virtual conference or public meeting, give the experts at 22nd Avenue Entertainment Logistics a call today.

From simple details, such as ensuring 100% of the bulbs are working in our market lighting... To paying attention to your colors and even matching power cord color to remain as inconspicuous as possible. ​

To help keep our community safe, the idea of Drive-In Wedding's have become a thing... but there are many ways to approach the concept. The biggest challenge in a drive-in wedding, we believe, is still creating the moment of attendance. The couple getting married wants to know you're there... and in that... the guests want to ​see everything.

This is something the experts at 22nd Avenue Entertainment Logistics created a solution for! We've already created solutions for live event streaming... why not apply that same approach to a live drive in wedding?

​With the realization of adapting to "socially distant events" - 22nd Avenue Entertainment Logistics was approached to create a drive-in solution for a wedding.

With the challenge of flat ground, we determined the most economical alternative for sight-lines would be to deploy an ultra low-latency stream (glass-to-glass) system for viewers in their vehicles to connect to directly - with a Short-Range FM Broadcast for those who wanted to sit outside on their vehicles.

We utilized a second streaming backup (low-latency) for viewers at home and in other Countries.

Our solution provided real-time video and production, as well as market/string lighting, uplighting, live audio/concert sound, staging, drape and power. As well as on-site data via cellular bonders (masts at 30').

The entire package was presented on a private link for families and friends to watch across the country and in Mexico.

Every best effort was made to ensure families were together, while relatives and guests were distant... while still enjoying the celebration of this beautiful moment.

We were happy to be a part of the solution... and wish the very best to Abdiel and Fatima as they start their new life together!

It's a slow process as the world realigns and finds balance. It's especially hard for many of us in the live events sector... as our cause... our mission... was simple - "To unify and inspire." No matter your race, orientation or faith.

... but when the time comes, we'll be ready to deliver what matters most to you.

As the covid-19 crisis continues on we have continued to enhance our video production and live streaming services. As we have helped other vendors and competitors with their live streaming setups, one of the most important aspects of in studio and on-site streaming for video is tablespace. 

With the ability to have a smaller production footprint, not only is this more aesthetic for clients not... This allows for a faster deployment and a faster strike. 

We are now able to livestream on site where there is no internet or data available, with self-contained TurnKey packages including mobile broadband and same-day delivery. 

For graduations, special ceremonies and conferences looking to go virtual we have options which engage your audience and are reliable for viewing. ​

It felt great because we were contributing as an industry. ​

As States start to determine the best ways to re-open their economies and keep the public safe, the entertainment industry still finds itself a long way out from "reopening". It is a societal mindset which has also changed how we view public gatherings. 
 
When this all clears will we as a society think twice about large gatherings? How will the "New Normal" look 6 to 12 months down the road from this writing? 
 
These questions, along with many more, are conversations we consider daily as we read the news and evaluate the landscape of our industry. ​

One of the biggest challenges facing the teleconference and streaming community, is control over their audience! For virtual public meetings, a conference call isn't always the most ideal solution. We're providing tiered solutions for both video and audio teleconferences... which allow moderators to control who's in a room and ensure everyone is heard.
 
One of our PM's, Jeremy Flynn, took some time to share a working flow-chart with the public as to our approach with public meetings and teleconferences. Our hope is that this information will help other in-house communications and I.T. Professionals looking for their own solutions.

With cancellations and postponements happening throughout the Country due to the COVID19 Crisis, 22nd Avenue Entertainment Logistics is continuing to put more planning into our streaming systems we've provided to our clients over the years.

Since 2008, we've been producing Live Video for clients... from a live-to-tape, live-to-broadcast and live-to-streaming solution.

Now, more than ever - when you're looking for proven results and a professional viewing experience... it's time to call the "Experts In Entertainment" at 22nd Avenue.

​On behalf of everyone at 22nd Avenue Entertainment Logistics, we want to express our deepest sympathy for those afflicted by the coronavirus and extend our heartfelt sympathy to people around the world who have lost loved ones to this illness or are battling it themselves.

​We share our gratitude to the healthcare and public health professionals — as well as leaders at the local, state, national and international levels — who are working tirelessly to protect us all.

​We have ramped up our teleconference and streaming meeting services, with the same best practices mentioned above, to ensure we help with maintaining productivity for our clients and their businesses.

We are monitoring CDC, Local and State Government channels to provide around-the-clock guidance and support to our clients and staff as needed.
​
While the current coronavirus situation presents new challenges, one thing has not changed over the course of our history in finding solutions: our commitment to our clients and their visions. For those who have postponed or cancelled public projects, when the time does come for you to do business again, we are ready to welcome you and your awesome ideas.

Lastly, we want to recognize, as a fellow humans, these are unprecedented times. But stay calm, and know that humanity has made it through these events before, and we'll make it through again. Don't stay constantly glued to the TV (or social media), go outside and take walks (that's still ok!), but do keep your distance—flattening the curve by #StayingHome is real, and will help save lives in your community.

One of the of the most vital aspects to a teleconference, is presence. With a lot of confusion out there regarding how this works, it can be simply summed up as "Streaming with the ability to have a conversation".
​
22nd Avenue provides true two-way collaboration for meetings and conferences, through a variety of platforms. Where we are different from the rest, is that we provide the needed equipment to ensure your project launches successfully.

With most solutions on the market today, you could download a third-party app and instruct your viewers to download the app as well and collaborate that way. Or, you could opt for a one-way streaming service and then field questions via twitter or other forms of social media.
​
These are great economical solutions, which can help a business or agency get out there and engage their public. However, these solutions can be difficult to deploy and troubleshoot without the correct equipment or personnel.

With Broadcast Solutions by 22nd Avenue, we provide the entire software and hardware solution on a project, temporary or long-term basis. There's no need to determine what equipment to buy, how to source audio, or what app's to download. We provide all cameras, switching, routing and even the internet (if needed).
 
We provide a simple web-based link for everyone to connect through, which can also be password protected.
​
Plus, if your project calls to be shared with the general public, we can even integrate with all social media platforms - Live and in Real-Time. If you have a presence on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or even Instagram - we can broadcast a stream to that account!
