Tonight was my first virtual talk using Zoom for Pontefract Civic Society on the WWI Munitions Works at Barnbow, one of my most popular talks.
The talk took the usual 45 minutes and the chat board was a very useful way for participants to post questions, which I answered at the end of the presentation.
There was some nice comments as well and I'm now looking forward to other virtual talks I have booked with other organisations over the next few weeks.
Having 'proved' the format works, if you are thinking of going down this route then please let me know and we can talk through the mechanics of setting up a virtual talk.
Even after the present restrictions have been lifted, if your society or group are perhaps too far away to consider a face-to-face meeting this new way of working would mean you could still have one of my talks in this virtual format using any one of the various platforms available.
Just drop me an email and we can talk through the issues involved.
