MCI – Moët Hennessy

Creating the illusion for participants in a 100% digital event that all speakers are gathered on the same stage—even though they’re actually in different countries—is possible, and MCI France pulled it off! On behalf of its client Moët Hennessy, MCI France organized a two-hour live show as part of their Global Purchasing Convention.

A total of 200 participants came together and were able to interact without any lag with speakers based in Buenos Aires, London, Reims, Cognac, and Paris—all brought together on the same stage thanks to “teleportation.” A true turning point in the small world of digital events!

Produce a 2-hour live, 100% digital event; ensure smooth transitions between each speaker; maintain a realistic appearance for participants joining remotely to preserve the sense of immersion (significant work on shadows and color grading)

• 10 people “teleported” simultaneously from 6 remote locations
• Controlled traffic flow using a 40×40 grid
• Use of the Realives platform (HD videoconferencing technology)
• Speakers recorded against a green screen and integrated into a 3D environment (virtual reality)
