Vacation Summary with Brill AV Media
Traditionally, Brill AV Media ended the holidays with workshops. Nearly two hundred participants took part in the training sessions at the Warsaw EXPO XXI Center. For two days, the secrets of Concert Technique and the Review of AV solutions for the modern office were presented simultaneously.
"Our workshops have become a kind of permanent fixture in the holiday calendar of many of our clients. This year, we decided to introduce our participants to the course of work related to a concert, which is a common element of many events, and the appropriately selected technique has a significant impact on its reception. On a professionally prepared stage, we allowed our guests to follow the band's installation, the exact course of the rehearsal and the concert, explaining all the elements and secrets of this process. The workshop formula was very positively received by the participants - we focus on showing the technology from the inside and explaining the principles of operation of individual solutions, and not just presenting our offer." -
summarizes Michał Czerniak, Managing Director of Brill AV Media.
The concert technique workshops were led by the technical director of Brill AV Media, Wojtek Kosiorek, who has been a sound engineer working with the greatest musicians in Poland for many years. The topics discussed included health and safety regulations; assembly schedule; verification of the conditions and capabilities of the facility; planning performances of multiple bands on one stage; sound/lighting and multimedia riders, and programming lighting and multimedia for the needs of the concert. After familiarizing themselves with the basic elements of sound, lighting and multimedia, the participants had the opportunity to follow the work on stage with live bands. The band's fastening, cooperation with them on stage, the movement of risers, conducting a rehearsal were presented to our participants without secrets, giving them the opportunity to expand their knowledge of the technical aspect of the concert.
In front of an audience consisting mainly of event agency employees, two bands from the MY NAME IS NEW project by Kayax played with well-concealed stage fright:
Hyper Son, whose music is a unique combination of indie pop, hip hop and electronica, and The Bullseye, which is powerful alt-rock with a truly massive dose of catchiness.
Thanks to the Kayax label's initiative, created with beginner musicians in mind, they, along with the other debutants in the project, have the opportunity to present their work to a wider audience and gain knowledge on how to professionally manage their career.
At the same time, in another room, the workshop "Review of AV solutions for the modern office" was held. The speakers were: - David Lesch; Hubert Karasiewicz; Andrzej Pawluś and Wojciech Łobacz.
The presentation of AV solutions for the modern office was started by David Lesch, CEO of AV Media, who gave a presentation entitled "The Truth about Office Life". During the presentation, the audience could learn not only about the current trends in office design but also track the increasing pace of changes in the way of working.
After this presentation, the guests were introduced to the latest solutions in the field of room reservation systems. The guests made test reservations and checked the functions available from the panels.
After the hands-on session at the reservation panels, it was time for presentations of wireless video communication solutions. Workshop participants independently verified how even the most advanced systems capable of transmitting 4K content work. Among the available devices were products from Barco, Polycom, Kramer, Crestron Airmedia and Airtame.
The last part of the workshop was devoted to Unified Communication systems. Participants could test the ease and effectiveness of videoconferencing calls along with sharing content between users of different UC platforms. Participants tested solutions from the most important manufacturers, which our Company is the integrator of.
Opinions of participants and partners
"The Brill AV Media workshops are certainly the best way to get to know the secrets of event technology that I have ever encountered. The only thing better is the event itself, but it is clear that it is a bit too late to learn. The greatest advantage of the workshops was undoubtedly the "live" presentation of all the solutions discussed, and the performance of two young and promising bands was a pleasant surprise. However, the vast knowledge and many years of experience of the host and Technical Director of Brill AV Media, Wojtek Kosiorek, were no less important."

"Brill AV Media workshops are definitely a must-attend for anyone involved in organizing or producing concerts. Thanks to the training, our artists from the My Name Is New project were able to test their skills in front of the most demanding audience, the event management industry, but also test themselves on professional equipment. Conducting training on a living organism is a great thing, and what's more, it is very memorable. This is certainly not the last workshop we will attend together with the project and the label."
