Talk Presenter Instructions

Also see Poster Presenter Instructions.

Meeting Registration

All speakers are required to register and wear their meeting badge while giving their talk.

All Talk Sessions

Please arrive in the talk room 30 minutes before your session to set up and test. See the Schedule of Events for your presentation time.

You will be presenting from your own laptop. A technician will be in the room to help you connect and test your presentation. If your presentation contains audio or video, please test this portion of your presentation.

Important: Connection to the projector is via HDMI cable. If your laptop does not have an HDMI port, you must bring an adapter. A limited number of USB-C to HDMI adapters will be available in the talk room.

To connect to power you will need a European-style plug (Type C or F, two round pins).

All presentations are given live; pre-recorded presentations are not allowed.

Contributed Talks

Each Contributed Talk presentation is allocated 10 minutes. To keep the conference running on time, this time limit will be enforced. We recommend that you plan to speak for about 8 minutes, leaving 2 minutes for questions from the audience.

Contributed Talk Sessions are held in Room C1.03 and Room C1.04. You can find your talk by Searching the submitted papers.

Recording and Live Streaming

All talk sessions will be live streamed and recorded. A link to view the live streamed session can be found on the session's information page. Recordings will be available on the CCN YouTube Channel approximately two weeks after the meeting.

A video camera will be pointed at the lectern to capture video of the speaker. The video of the speaker will be combined with the laptop video for live streaming and recording. It’s important that speakers remain at the lectern while speaking so they remain within the frame of the video recording.

Comfort Monitor

Each lectern has a "comfort monitor" in front of the speaker on the lectern. You can set your laptop to display "Presenter Notes" view and use the comfort monitor to view the same content as is on the main screen in the room. This makes it easier for speakers to present while facing the audience (not looking at the projection screen), which will result in a better video recording.

Because we are recording the display from your laptop merged with the inset of you speaking, we discourage the use of using a physical laser pointer to point to locations on the projection screen as this will not be visible in the recording. Instead, you should use your on-screen mouse pointer. You may also wish to use words or slide animations to clarify where the viewer should focus their attention on your slides.
