TATE Émigré Art Archives Symposium - Tate Live Stream

The  Émigré Art Archives symposium was the finale in a three year project to catalogue and selectively digitize three archive collections: Jankel Adler’s sketchbooks (https://www.tate.org.uk/art/archive/tga-201218/sketchbooks-of-jankel-adler), the papers of J. P. Hodin (TGA 20062) and the family papers of David Mayor (TGA 200730).

Participants were connected through a Zoom webinar, there was no live onsite audience. The concept was to use the reading room as a ‘studio’ for presentations. The event was a great success thanks to the quality of the production for the live stream which engaged the audience. The vision mixed transmission with name title graphics was received with much enthusiasm by the online attendees. In particular positive feedback was given with attention to detail as a high point.

The JM Production team produced a professional feel and unique ambience for an event that lasted for three hours. In preparation for the project and once the parameters had been defined, our team reinforced the planning stage by creating a detailed event plan that included; run of show, event overview, roles description, timings and relevant information for the project.

Our production experts surveyed the event space in the lead up to the event day to review the positioning of equipment and commence the pre-setup. On the day of the event JM Production crew arrived a few hours prior to the event to make sure all the tools and equipment where tested properly. The delivery of our work was a success thanks to the collaboration of all people involved.
