Royal Yachting Association
Brief and Schedule
Giggabox supported the Royal Yachting Association with their Race Officials National Conference 2021. This was a Virtual Event that ran over 4 consecutive evenings, involving sessions discussing a wide range of topics, from rule changes and teaching the next generation of athletes, to anti-doping governance and inclusion within the sport’s community. The 4 evening sessions ran from 7pm until 9pm, each beginning with a Main Stage keynote which then split into 6 Breakout Rooms for discussion & Q&As including all attendees.
Giggabox was tasked with its usual production of graphics for this multi-day Virtual Event. This included several holding slides, lower thirds, wipe animations, and background overlays for the streamed content. Pre-recorded content was also utilised for this event, being sent over at the start of each day.
To ensure all speakers understood how the event would run and to check their video and audio, Green Rooms were operated by our own in-house team, making all involved familiar with the platform and the schedule for the evening.

‘Giggabox helped us to deliver an online conference over 4 evenings. They were exceedingly helpful and very professional. Their staff were calm and patient with some of our more ‘technologically challenged’ presenters.’
