Service announcement for speakers
please ensure you pay attention to the following guidelines and information:
  1. The live forecast should be 4-5 minutes – under no circumstances should you overrun, although it can be shorter.
  2. The live forecast should be accessible to all – take care not to treat it like a scientific presentation.
  3. Please follow any instructions provided by the LOC with regards upload and delivery of slides – we will ensure instructions are provided in good time.
  4. There will not be time for questions following your forecast.
  5. Live forecasts will be filmed by the LOC, with the recording shown throughout the remainder of the day in the coffee/poster/networking areas (and made available for viewing online)
Good luck and have fun as a live space weather forecaster.
