Overview
Screen sharing is possible in all video formats on Talentspace. Additionally in Speeches, Sessions and Virtual Booths, you can also upload PDF files and embed videos. Here's how:
Instructions
Upon logging in to the platform, select the event you are participating in in the "Events" tab and enter our video formats ideally through the "My Schedule" tab.
Step 1 - Join as a speaker
To be able to present materials in a video format, you will have to "Join as a speaker".
Step 2 - Use the screen sharing icon
Click on the screen share icon at the bottom of your screen. You can choose to either "Share your screen", upload a PDF version of your presentation by clicking "Upload presentation", or embed the link to a youtube video by clicking on "Embed video".
Share your screen
"Share your screen" to share a window or tab.
Please note: the screen sharing function is not intended for sharing videos and/or sound
This is the only function available during 1-1 Chats - you will not be able to upload a presentation or embed a video
Upload a presentation
"Upload presentation" to upload PDF files:
When uploading PDF presentations, 16:9 format works best but A4 size would also work (The file size should be less than 50MB)
The uploaded file will be accessible for the entire duration of the format, so you can upload a PDF before your scheduled Session, Speech or Live Booth and access it once the format begins
To "Stop presenting", click on the screen sharing icon. You can access the PDF again at any point during your Speech, Session, or Live Booth
Embed a video
Click on "Embed video" to attach a youtube video link to a Session, Speech or Virtual Booth and present it to participants.
Only youtube videos are supported in the Session, Speech and Virtual Booth formats
To stop showing a video, click "Stop casting" on either the screen sharing icon, or in the top right corner just above your live image
