VPELA 2020
Project brief
Victorian Planning & Environmental Law Association host their annual conference each year, usually selecting a scenic location in regional Victoria and hosting a few hundred guests from around Australia.
Each year delegates discuss corporate and government impacts on the environment and how different organisations tackle bug issues. 2020 was no different however Covid, of course, limited travel and gathering, no less for VPELA, than everyone else.
After deciding to try a virtual event as well as planning their event to take place over 9 days throughout the course of November, the team at VPELA set about, with their audiovisual provider, the team at VPELA, researching platforms to use.
The event was to be a mix of 1 hour webinars over 7 days, which culminate to 2, full days that were to be streamed from a studio, however this requirement meant that the platform required would need to be flexible for this purpose.
The team had just about decided on a platform, until they were told the overall cost for their requirements were going to be in excess of $20,000 USD, which put it instantly out of their price rage. Then they Found Bettercast.
