Special event support and recording (for University departments on Parkville campus)

Services

  1. Dedicated technical support during any special University event on campus (such as public lectures or academic conferences). A support consultant will remain on-site for the duration of the event, providing technical support for University installed equipment in the allocated venue(s).
  2. Professional quality recording of special University events - three options are illustrated below.

Use this booking form to request special event support and/or recording. Submit requests at least ten business days in advance of the event. A support consultant will contact you to discuss your requirements in detail.

If you only require Lectopia recordings, see the Lectopia booking procedure.

Our service target is to respond within two business days. Service provision is dependent upon availability of resources. A fee-for-service will apply (departments must supply an appropriate budget code prior to the event to enable processing of Themis charge-back by us).

Recommended venues for special event recording/video capture

Theatre A in the Elisabeth Murdoch Building (capacity 279) is the most highly recommended venue for video capture/special event recording of presenters and/or panel discussions, because of its unique design features and specialist configuration. The Copland Theatre (capacity 495) and the Carrillo Gantner Theatre (capacity 486) are our next most highly recommended venues for video capture/special event recording.
