Re-imagining MozCon hasn't been easy. I won't lie — I'll miss seeing so many of you in person, and, yes, I'll miss the magic of the big stage. We're working hard to make this year special, including leveling up our speakers for their remote sessions. I recently shared my own set-up on Twitter:
This stirred up quite a bit of interest in our set-up and equipment list, so thanks to Cheryl on our events team for filling in the blanks for me, and thanks to our amazing A/V partners at Seamless Events[1] for helping this all come together. Also, many thanks to our speakers who gave me permission to share their photos and let you in on some of the magic behind in front of the curtain.
MozCon Virtual equipment list
Before we get to the fun part (or maybe this is the fun part for you), here's the standard equipment list our A/V team used for MozCon Virtual (some speaker set-ups may vary):
- Logitech C920 HD Pro Webcam (more info[2])
- Neewer Backdrop Support System (more info[3])
- Neewer Gray Photography Backdrop (more info[4])
- UBeesize 8-inch Selfie Ring Light w/ Tripod Stand (more info[5])
- Z ZAFFIRO USB Lavalier Lapel Clip Microphone (more info[6])
- Vilcome 4-in-1 USB C Hub Adapter (more info[7])
Note that some of the models/sizes linked to in [more info] may not be exact matches to our kit. While Moz doesn't endorse any of these specific products, I've personally been pleasantly surprised at how affordable and accessible decent A/V equipment has become, and quarantine is making the value proposition even stronger.
The presenter remote on my desk is not part of the kit, but is my own Logitech R400 (more info[8]).
