Challenges

Unstable DSLR connection

Frequent on/off interruptions due to battery changes and overheating

Buffering and frame drops

Caused by USB‑based video capture

No dedicated switching system

Requiring all transitions to be done manually inside Zoom

Limited monitoring

No multi‑view, no program preview

Early-pandemic hybrid workflow

Committee and speakers were still adapting to hybrid protocols

Audio balancing issues

between on‑site microphones and remote participants

Solutions & Execution

  • Maintained continuous monitoring of the DSLR feed to quickly respond to battery‑related dropouts
  • Adjusted camera placement and exposure to maintain clarity despite USB limitations
  • Coordinated closely with the on‑site committee to time speaker transitions and minimize visual disruptions
  • Managed audio routing through the mixer to reduce echo and maintain clarity for Zoom participants
  • Utilized Zoom’s built‑in controls for spotlighting speakers, screen sharing, and managing participant visibility
