Navigating the Storm | Embracing the Virtual World

April 9, 2024  by Alaina Salas

In the wake of the 2020 pandemic, industries across the globe faced unprecedented challenges, forcing companies to adapt rapidly to survive. Among the significantly impacted industries was the meetings and events industry. Fueled by the power of human energy, the event industry is at its best when people are able to come together, solve problems, and share ideas. The pandemic demanded an abrupt shift to a completely virtual event environment. As a company that focuses on the production of live and virtual events, Tri-Marq immediately felt the strain of a world suddenly forced into their homes. 

During this time, the entirety of the events industry faced the challenges of navigating to a fully virtual world. At Tri-Marq, we already had the knowledge to host and produce virtual events that still engaged and excited remote audiences. This experience meant that as the world and our clients shifted online, we became not only event producers, but also teachers. Leveraging technology at the time became imperative, as we had to explore new tools and find workarounds to continue to deliver quality work to our clients to accommodate the volume of events moving to the online sphere.

While the initial days of the pandemic were full of uncertainties, Tri-Marq adapted to a new workflow model, allowing us to continue our endeavors and overcome the many hurdles of quarantine. Beyond establishing ourselves as new workers from home, the pandemic offered us an opportunity to delve deeper into the world of virtual events, which had previously been a smaller portion of our business. 

Of course we had to expand our arsenal of online event tools as well. We increased our Cloud presence and technology, researched, tested and learned about many virtual platforms, and brought in additional tech operators. One aspect we never steered away from was our tested and proven business practice of how we produce events. We approach virtual events the same way we produce in-person events: planning, pre-production and creating backup plans.

Today, we still find that it is imperative to produce and deliver quality events, both virtual and live – sometimes at the same time. While most events are shifting back to the in-person environment, some also include a virtual component to the meeting. Whether it is bringing a virtual speaker into the ballroom for the in-person audience or streaming a keynote session for viewers at home, clients have more options – and more needs – than ever.

The pandemic taught us a lot about the solidarity of our team and how, across all industries, not just the events industry, people strive to connect – even in times of separation. Tri-Marq continues to find the right solutions for our clients, whether in-person, virtual, or hybrid, to meet their needs to educate, entertain, and motivate their audiences.

@aurorahealthcare wanted to create a video showcas @aurorahealthcare wanted to create a video showcasing the state-of-the-art care facilities at Aurora Sinai Medical Center, it’s community partners, and the programs they offer to people in downtown Milwaukee, many who lack access to care. It features how the spirit of the Aurora teammates feeling connected to one another, living the purpose and mission, working in sync to make sure they’re all driving towards the same goal to help people meet their health care needs.

The story is told by Dr. Iroegbu, President of Aurora Sinai Medical Center & Aurora St. Luke’s South Shore through an interview we recorded on location. The powerful, yet straightforward story is elevated by combining beautiful b-roll footage, graphics and soundtrack. Tri-Marq is proud to have created this compelling and informative video to promote Aurora’s commitment to the Milwaukee community.

Tri-Marq conducted three days on location recording interviews and b-roll footage, in multiple locations. In addition, Tri-Marq handled project management, creative design, on-site production, editing, sound/audio design, color correction, and script writing.

Our client, First Advantage, took their annual 'Co Our client, First Advantage, took their annual 'Collaborate' conference to sunny Miami, Florida🌴☀️ at the Fontainebleau hotel. Tri-Marq produced this Event Recap video that aired at the end of the conference. Video production included an on-site crew to record footage and edit immediately.

It was a busy week! Attendees got to hear from keynote speaker and award-winning NYT author, Jeremy Gutsche, connect in interactive breakout sessions, and enjoy performances from local dance troupes and a percussion group.

As full-service Show Producers, we think about the overall meeting experience, so Tri-Marq incorporated the brand wherever possible, including designing the company logo out of Titan Tube lighting as a stage backdrop. Tri-Marq also handled all pre-production planning, CAD renderings, site visits, management of run-of-show, speaker rehearsals, and more.
