Lighting

• Consider using uplights to change the feel of an indoor space.
  • Add a personal touch by incorporating gobos that showcase Georgia Tech. Review our visual identity guidelines.
• Recorded events may require additional lighting to prevent shadows on the presenters.

Sound

• Larger spaces may require additional speakers to allow guests to clearly hear. Inquire with your rental space about their house system.
• When renting microphones, a mixer board is required to adjust volume.
• Speakers may prefer a certain type of microphone (wired, wireless, or lav mic). Inquire with your VIPs prior to ordering equipment.
  • President Cabrera prefers a lav mic.
  • Don't forget to order additional mics for audience Q&A.

Supplemental Needs

• Ensure you have an on-site A/V tech for your event to troubleshoot any issues.
• For presentations, ensure you have a wireless advancer to assist your speaker.

On-Campus

• The Student Center has basic A/V equipment available for their rental spaces.
  • Contact their Operations team for an equipment list and availability.
