Last Minute Live Stream for Rare Disease Conference

With only a few days notice, the XLH Network contacted Focal Point Productions to live stream their annual symposium taking place at the Hyatt Regency in Baltimore. XLH (X-Linked Hypophosphatemia) is a rare genetic disorder that affects about one in 20,000 people.

Focal Point live streamed one day of the conference (morning and afternoon sessions) using a Blackmagic video switcher with 3 cameras and power point slides. PSAV (the hotel’s AV company) supplied an audio feed and 5Mbps upload internet connection.

People from all over the world tuned in to watch the live broadcast, which was streamed to the non-profit’s Facebook page. Within a few days after the conference, the two Facebook Live videos had 9,000+ minutes viewed, 400+ post engagements, and had reached almost 5,500+ people.
