Corporate ballroom event with LED and AV production by GLMedia

HOTEL BALLROOMS · GENERAL SESSIONS · BREAKOUT ROOMS

Hotel AV production for your event.

GLMedia prepares, delivers, installs and operates AV systems for hotels in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and South Florida. Rent equipment for your crew, add setup and operation, or work with us to coordinate technical production across several rooms.

Choose the AV support for your event

A meeting, general session and gala call for different setups. Tell us what the audience should see and hear, and we can help select screens, sound, lighting and presenter tools. An idea or a provisional agenda is enough to start.

Rent equipment on its own or add preparation, delivery, installation, connection, testing, operation and removal. LED and video can work alongside audio, lighting, cameras, streaming and staging where they support the program.

Equipment prepared for your crew

We select and prepare the equipment and accessories your team will use. We arrange pickup or delivery and review connections and controls with the person operating it. Technical assistance can be added when you need it.

Ask about equipment only

Setup and system handover

We install, connect and test the systems, walk your team through their operation and arrange removal. We review access and connections to hotel equipment so the handover gives your operator what they need.

Ask about setup and handover

Operation throughout the program

Add technicians for rehearsal and the event: content playback, sound, lighting, cameras or cue coordination. We can use GLMedia equipment or integrate an existing system after checking its connections and compatibility.

Add technical operation

The proposal details equipment, crew, transport and scheduled hours. We also identify the hotel services and charges involved in the setup so you can compare options using the same information.

Presentations, breakout rooms and streaming

For meetings, incentive programs, conferences and exhibitions (MICE), we assign equipment and crew around the agenda and simultaneous rooms. Options include confidence monitors, timers, tablets, cameras, recording, streaming and intercom.

If you organize the event, we can help prepare its technical production. If you are a production or AV company, rent equipment or add white-label support coordinated with your crew and workflow.

General sessions

LED walls, projection where appropriate, playback, switching, cameras, recording, streaming and technical direction.

Plan the rooms

Audio, lighting and staging

Corporate PA, wireless microphones, digital mixing, lighting, stage decks, pipe & drape and coordinated rigging.

Presenter tools

Confidence monitors, countdown timers, tablets, cueing, intercom and support for presenters and show crews.

Prepare the presenter feed

A provisional agenda helps us identify simultaneous sessions, the content in each room and setup changes. Equipment and staffing can be adjusted as the program takes shape.

Planning the setup with your crew and hotel

Share the hotel AV package if you have it, and we can review what to use and what to add. We can also help organize questions for the hotel event contact while you choose the room and develop the program.

Program and priorities
We start with your event idea, rooms and expected audience. With your production team, we plan show cues and how program changes will be communicated.
Hotel access and services
We review hours, loading, documentation and outside-provider authorization. We identify services reserved by the hotel—such as rigging, power, internet or labor—and their connection or supervision charges.
A shared work plan
We coordinate equipment, connections, signal handoffs, testing, rehearsal and removal with the participating teams. Each stage has a sequence and a clear point of contact.

We prepare the solution with the hotel team and its AV provider where needed. The hotel confirms outside-provider authorization and the terms for the event; those details become part of the setup plan.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

AV production options

Technical questions

Explore room layouts, LED support, presenter tools and the options for working with your crew.

Can GLMedia coordinate the event’s technical production?

Yes. We can prepare LED and video, sound, lighting, staging, cameras, playback, intercom and technical crew to follow the same program. Confidence monitors, timers, recording and streaming can be added for each room’s needs. A small meeting may need a screen, microphones and an operator; for a conference, we coordinate the general session and breakout-room systems. The proposal lets you choose equipment, services and working hours.

Can I choose delivery, setup or operation during the event?

Yes. Pick up prepared equipment, have it delivered to the hotel, add installation and testing, or book technicians for the program. If your crew will operate it, we arrange the handover and review connections, controls and support. If you prefer GLMedia operation, we plan rehearsal, opening and finish times around the work you need.

How do you plan AV for a ballroom?

We start with the audience, stage position and program. We review sightlines, sound coverage, camera and presenter positions, height, floor capacity, power and cable routes. Loading access, doorways, rigging points and setup windows help determine the equipment. Emergency exits, fire lanes and circulation routes are incorporated into the layout alongside rehearsals, meals and room changes. A plan or photo is a useful starting point.

Can you install a 32.8 × 16.4 ft (10 × 5 m) LED wall?

We evaluate that size for the room and the content you want to show. We compare suspension from approved points with ground support, considering height, loads, access, exits, power and setup time. For a suspended wall, we coordinate the authorized lifting and rigging provider, equipment documentation, inspections and required crew credentials with the venue. For ground support, we review loads and working space, including the area behind the screen. Those details let us recommend a suitable support system. We also identify with the venue whether the configuration requires engineering documentation.

Can a large LED support system use the service elevator?

In many cases, modular components make access easier. Unilumin ground support and 6x6 aluminum ModTruss separate into shorter pieces than 10 ft truss sections, which can help in corridors and elevators. We review doorways, elevator depth and rated capacity, turns, loading dock, floor protection and ballroom access. Where dimensions and loads allow, a service elevator can avoid additional lifting equipment and reduce handling and load-in time.

What can you prepare for a general session and breakout rooms?

For MICE events in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and South Florida, we can coordinate the main LED wall and side screens, playback, cameras, switching, audio, lighting, stage, confidence monitors, timer, intercom, recording and streaming. Breakouts can use displays or projection, audio systems, microphones, laptops, remote presenters and room technicians. Quantities, power distribution and staffing are planned around simultaneous rooms and changes in the agenda.

How can I use the AV included in my hotel package?

Share the hotel’s list and we can help evaluate what to add. We review equipment, operator hours, internet, power and outside-provider charges to prepare a complementary proposal or an authorized outside AV option. If you are still comparing packages, we can help organize those questions and distinguish hotel services from the services GLMedia offers.

Can you work with my production or AV company?

Yes. Rent equipment for your staff to use or add preparation, setup and operation. White-label support is coordinated with your production team: equipment, connections, signals, rehearsal times and show communications. We can integrate hotel or client-supplied equipment after reviewing compatibility and testing.

READY TO PLAN?

Tell us your idea for the event

Start with the planned date or city, the type of gathering and what you want to show or communicate. A room photo or approximate audience size helps too. We can work out the equipment with you.

If you have a hotel, agenda or floor plan, include it. We review simultaneous rooms, rehearsals and setup time to recommend equipment rental, installation or operation that fits your team.

Contact lets you write your message and edit the service reference. We can agree a channel for sharing plans or files. Email and WhatsApp are available there too.

Ask about AV for my hotel event

Preparing your hotel event

Where do I start when choosing an outside AV provider?

Contact us with the planned hotel and date. We review the event terms and outside-provider authorization with you. Some hotels reserve rigging, power, internet or labor for a designated provider; we ask for those services and any supervision or connection charges to be identified. Authorization is confirmed for the event you are planning.

Review options with the hotel
How do we arrange technical crew credentials and access?

We coordinate our crew information with the organizer’s or hotel’s procedure and deadlines. With their events or security team, we confirm the service entrance, credential pickup, working hours and unloading arrangements. Technical credentials cover working access and are handled separately from guest admission.

What insurance documentation does the hotel need?

The hotel specifies its vendor requirements, exact certificate-holder details and any additional-insured wording. Using the event dates and address, we review the documentation with the responsible parties and coordinate submission. Required limits, endorsements, acceptance and timing are checked before delivery. If you do not have the requirements yet, we can help identify what to request.

Which elevator measurements help plan load-in?

The clear door opening, cabin width, depth and height, and rated load. We compare them with the largest loaded case and the support components in their transport configuration. We also review the dock, turns, ramps, thresholds and ballroom door. Photos or a plan help determine whether a site visit would be useful; we coordinate elevator booking, permitted use and floor protection with the hotel.

Where are cases and carts stored during the event?

We coordinate an approved area with the hotel for empty cases and carts, plus accessible storage for spares needed by the technicians. We agree access times and when the space must be cleared, keeping exits and circulation routes open. If cases need to leave the venue, we include the outgoing and return trip in the plan. Any storage or additional transport charges are identified in the proposal.

Can a meeting room become a dinner venue on the same day?

We plan the changeover by comparing both layouts and the time available with the room clear. We review what stays installed and what moves: seating, stage, screens, microphones or lighting. We coordinate the sequence with catering and furniture crews and allow time to reconnect and test before guests return. The time needed depends on the work: moving a monitor and rebuilding a stage or LED wall require different preparations. A provisional agenda is enough to explore options.

Plan a room changeover
Can you set up overnight or early in the morning?

We can explore those hours around hotel and crew availability. We coordinate the dock, service elevator, security and required house technicians for the entire load-in and setup route. The plan covers delivery, installation, testing, rehearsal and removal, with separate shifts where needed. Special-hour and venue-service costs are identified in the proposal so you can choose the schedule.

Can the presenter see notes or the next slide without showing them to the audience?

Yes, with a separate feed and a computer that supports the function. The confidence monitor can show the current slide, presenter view, a timer or a remote guest. We establish what the presenter needs to see; duplicating the main feed works when they want the same image as the audience. For private notes, we check the software and computer outputs. During rehearsal we test the actual laptop, display assignments, cue device and monitor position, plus computer changeovers to keep notes separate from the audience image.
