Trial technology consultant Robb Helt will be presenting a session called “Preparing for the Realities of Presentation at Trial.” Mostly geared toward those who are integrating a video file with a transcript, Helt says he will be delving deep into the work of preparing for trial and how evidence gets presented.
“Preparation is the key to anything at a high level,” Helt says. “We will deep dive into exactly why digital reporting is crap and should be outlawed. This is from the perspective of a trial technology consultant who has seen more trials, mediations, and arbitrations than most lawyers in their lifetime. I will be discussing the trial presentation software, OnCue, and how it can be used by more than just trial techs.”
In addition, Marshall Fox, CLVS, will present “Mix It Up: A Look into Live Video Mixing Software.” He explains: “VMix video software is being used more and more by legal videographers for deposition work. We will show those who attend how to set up and use Vmix software in deposition settings. We will show how to capture video in different formats, how to set up picture in picture with multiple video sources, and how to use video conferencing.”
And don’t overlook “Cyber Security Incident & Cases: Protect Your Data!” presented by cybersecurity expert Matt Gonzalez, Ph.D. Gonzalez will explore our growing dependence on technology and refresh you on the latest in cyber security. “Your online presence is a responsibility, requiring awareness, compliance, and vigilance of your data,” says Gonzalez. “I’ll be sharing ways that you can keep yourself safe online, help you figure out who to trust, and what you can do to keep your data protected.”
