NvDACon 2016: first half, keynote presentation events


 

Hi all,

 

Just a short report on the first half of the NVDACon:

 

·         Maximum number of attendees: we had about 27 people attend the open forum.

·         Conference archive: Lightning Talk I (Dictation Bridge) has been archived, and Michael Hansen, our audio engineer is working on open forum and F123Access sessions. The second day events (such as add-ons festival) are being edited as we speak. I expect the archives of the first half of the conference would be ready just in time for keynote presentation.

·         Keynote presentation events: For keynote presentation, people will be asked to use the website link to join us. A few minutes before the presentation starts, in order to create the conference atmosphere, I’ll play a music in the Keynote Auditorium channel (that also includes a voiceover saying, “welcome to NVDACon keynote presentation; the presentation will start shortly.” I believe this is a first in NVDACon history that we’re doing this. Also, before Mick and Jamie are introduced, a mysterious audio file will be played (please ask me offlist about this mysterious file and Project Thunderstorm).

 

Thank you.

Cheers,

Joseph

Do you have a clip already? I would design one, but I don't have the correct equiptment.

Hi Joseph and all,

 

I should hopefully have the F123Access recording done today.  User forum will take a little more time, because there’s a lot of stops and starts that need to be edited out, etc.

 

Regards,

Michael

Hi,

The one that’ll play before the keynote starts? I’ll use the background music played during Windows XP Tour (found it) or something similar to this. For voiceover work, I plan to use GoldWave to insert voiceover in two or three minute intervals.

Cheers,

Joseph

You need to make sure that you have copyright available to play the song. If it's provided with windows I'm not sure, if it's already a public domain piece anyway would probably be fine

Hi,

Right, so I’m looking for something that’s legal for us to play.

Cheers,
