NLVOC

Why

  • AV at SHA2017 and MCH2022 would have been impossible without C3VOC
  • Challenges at MCH2022 especially in the three main tents
    • Troubleshooting AV issues (speakers, equipment)
    • Recurring processes (backups)
    • Angel "management"
  • But also not too many "experienced" angels (camera, videomixing and to a lesser degree audiomixing and on the video releasing side ("cutting"))
  • We heard some cool stuff happened at MCH2022 apparently?
  • VOC/Productiehuis appears to outsiders as a closed organisation
  • Without more VOC experience in NL it will be hard to run a three-tent event in 2025

What

  • An NL focussed group arranged similar to and cooperating with C3VOC (and similar organisations elsewhere)
  • To help organizers of hackerscene/open source events (and related, this is quite broad) with recording, streaming and archiving their presentations
  • Ideally all video releasing to be done before teardown is complete. So no tedious video editing after the event(*)

How (1)

  • Start recording/streaming/archiving smallish events in NL (and immediate surroundings) using C3VOC platform
  • When possible help with existing C3VOC events (not all of them are in Berlin or Munich)
    • Train a lot more people on how to operate event related AV
    • "Train" more people on C3VOC pipeline
  • Try to be a more open organisation during events
  • Grow towards own hardware (software?)

How(2)

  • Contact existing event organisers (smaller Dutch hacker events, various open source conferences, more?)
  • Have some one day events, like Hark, VCFBerlin?
  • Look for sponsoring to bootstrap (some) hardware, hosting

Who

  • SHA2017/MCH2022 Productiehuis (with help from C3VOC)
  • You?
