Thirty and not a day too old

To Oxford for the thirtieth anniversary of the Oxford Vaccine Group - yes, the people who brought us the first vaccine against the Coronavirus.

What a privilege.

We were asked to record 33 live talks average length of talks with an average length of 15 minutes in five sessions - and you can see some of the many outputs in this post.

But how do you go about meeting a challenge like that?

Planning and preparation are a core part of Drawnalism and especially when confronted with a challenge where the volume of input, information and session after session of recording from many expert presenters can quickly get away from you.

There’s a human challenge in managing the self to be able to perform under that sort of pressure.

And a management challenge in being sufficiently prepared for the assault on the senses that a long multiple long periods of recording brings!

Regular customers and clients will reecognise that this is why we almost invariably ask for time in preparation before an event - that At the Studio time is essential to buiilding the systems for recording that allow us to deliver your needs.

In this case, that was on the day printing as soon as each and every session was complete.

To make it happen we had to liasise with the exetrnal print service, run several test and be sure that we had a robust system for delioveruing supply when under extreme time pressure.

When Drawnalism speaks about systems design for your events or programs this is often exactly what we are speaking about.

And the venue was the venerable and impressive Trinity College Oxford! No pressure then!
