Thank you so much for being on staff or volunteering to help moderator this years Virtual Fest! We hope it will be a fun and enjoyable year for all involved! To that end please find some items  related to your roles as moderators.

1a.) Allison Hagood has offered to meet with people to go through more zoom training to ensure our program is a success. Her email is allison@dragonfest.org please email her directly if you would like to set up a time to go through the training. 

 

2.) Info related to Zoom:  We are using Zoom Webinars These are a little different than Zoom meetings. Speakers in webinars can be host, co-hosts, or panelists. The major difference between a meeting and a webinar is control over the mic. In a webinar, participants can not speak unless a host un-mutes them. This will allow rituals to flow without the interruption of an open mic, affecting the experience of everyone. In webinars, participants also do not have video. Basically, webinars are designed for presentation, not interaction. Here is a link with more info: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115005474943-Meeting-and-webinar-comparison?mobile_site=true

 

3.) Each of you will receive  a zoom link for  the webinars you sign up for. 15 Minutes Prior please go into the zoom room and do the following: 

3a.) Create the Zoom Waiting Room Message. This will be a disclaimer above that lets attendees know they are being recorded.
