[nabs-l] Recording NABS meeting

[Jim Reed]

Aziza, 
You asked, "What does recording a meeting entail?
What funds are necessary and not present? What would these funds pay for?"

Based on the work I put into planning the recording of the employment seminar, I can answer your questions.

First, recording a meeting involves audio and video recordings. The video recording requires a good quality camera, and someone(s) to run the camera. And, if the effort is to be done proffessionally, the audio is recorded directlyfrom the PA system, not via a microphone attached to a video camera. This is accomplished via a machine called an audio mixer. From my understanding, both recorders and audio mixers are avaliable for rent from the hotel's technology sales department. I don;t know how much it would cost to rent the equipment, but I get the feeling it is probably in the $150-$250 range to rent the equipment for 4 hours.
