TSC is a specialist live streaming company with its own server network and international Points of Presence, that has served large corporate clients since 2008. It is a fully customizable, highly secure platform for professional virtual events, such as Annual General Meetings, town halls, conference broadcasts and product launches.

Allow open access, self-registration or pre-registration. Sponsor features Sponsor links can be added anywhere on the event site, with professional guidance for the best layout. Downloadable documents PowerPoint and PDFs can be added adjacent to the media player for download by viewers. Key features Security and Privacy Keep your event and attendee data safe with password-protected events. We use 2-factor and token authentication to ensure unregistered viewers cannot log in, even with a legitimate user ID and password.

This includes polling, quizzes, word clouds and Q&A, with the ability to moderate questions. Social media integration While most of our clients greatly value the privacy of our video stream, we can stream to social media platforms simultaneously, if required. Post-Event User tracking and reporting Viewership statistics are tracked by our event reporting module, along with all questions submitted. This allows you to see how each viewer voted in polls, and what questions they asked. Recorded programs Your program can be hosted on the site for up to two years after the live event. Recordings of all sessions will be transferred to you using any common file transfer site.

We have received feedback about the effectiveness of our training, powered by CliftonStrengths® "This has been fantastic, Mark. Really detailed, really, really good. I love the way you've tailored it for all participants, and the fact that you've gone to such detail and looked at all our CliftonStrengths® reports. Personally for me it's been very, very revealing in terms of how I communicate, how I want to communicate. So this is broader than just media for me. Also it gives me a view into the rest of the team as I position them for interviews and speaking opportunities such as panels when they're sitting with a bunch of people without a journalist they could get these kind of difficult questions.

STUDIO POLICY Last Updated: 5 January 2021 This "Studio Policy" explains the terms and conditions for booking the Hong Bao Media ("we", "us" or "our") studios in Singapore and Malaysia. Please click "Contact Us" if you have any questions. 01 BOOKING FORM Please use the online booking form to check availability and to book either of our studios. Studio usage subject to availability. We would be happy to receive your call or email with your enquiries, but your booking will not be confirmed until and unless you have received an email from us with a confirmation. 02 WHO CAN BOOK We welcome bookings from television stations, Conference Service Providers and professional video production companies. If you do not fall into any of these criteria, a booking might still be possible, but please contact us before making a booking. We reserve the right to cancel or decline your booking, even if you have completed the booking form, if you do not fall into any of these three criteria, or for any other reason. Our decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into. 03 EQUIPMENT We have limited equipment. Check the spec list in the booking portal at the time of booking. If you need additional equipment, you are welcome to bring it in yourself. 04 USE OF OTHER SERVICES & FACILITIES We offer reasonable use of our studio. This means, if you select: Make-up and hairstyling: no special effects. For normal on-camera appearances only. Office support: yes, you can drink water from our water cooler, print or scan something, and use our Wi-Fi …within reason. 05 CONSUMABLES Please bring your own SD-cards, HDDs, and other equipment you might like to use. If you think you'll be using a lot of battery power, bring extra batteries. 06 DAMAGE & CLEANING All equipment used must be returned in the state it was found. If you break it, you pay for it. Just common sense and common courtesy, really. In particular: Do not stick masking tape on our walls or floors. If you damage our green screen in any way, but especially by sticking masking tape on it, we will invoice you for repainting it. Rubbish. We thought it was obvious, but it seems we still have to remind users to clear away coffee cups, drinking cans, food containers and other rubbish. If you leave your rubbish lying around our studio, we will deduct the cleaning fee from your deposit. Please bring your rubbish to the garbage disposal on level 1. 07 NOISE We have good relationships with our neighbours, and we'd like to keep it that way. So before you plan to shoot a punk rock music video in our studio, talk to us first. The same goes for nudity, violence, anything that could be remotely construed as political or religious in nature. Again, the reasonableness test applies. 08 SMOKING We thought it was obvious, but we have to point out yet again that smoking or vaping is not permitted in our studio. We reserve the right to terminate your booking immediately without a refund if you smoke/vape in our premises, or anywhere else in the building that has not been designated a smoking area. Further, we will invoice you a cleaning fee to get the stench out of our office. 09 CAMERA CREW We have a pool of crew you can draw on. If you require someone with specialist skills or experience, we can probably find you the right person. But of course this might impact the price. 10 PAYMENT Payment must be made to confirm your booking. No exceptions 11 CANCELLATION POLICY Up to 72 hours in advance of scheduled booking start time, no charge Between 24-72 hours: 50% penalty Within 24 hours 100% penalty 12 DEPOSITS FOR CLEANING FEE $50 will be added automatically to your total fee.

Presentation skills for those who don’t like to present Overcome stage fright We recognise not everyone looks forward to delivering a conference keynote, or to being interviewed for a written article or a television report. In fact, you might even have a phobia of it. There are more than a dozen different forms of stage fright. But no matter what makes you nervous, we can help. Everyone has special talents, and our Gallup-certified CliftonStrengths® coach Mark Laudi can help you draw on your talents to deliver a creditable presentation, without the nerves. Outcomes Less discomfort when presenting More cohesive, less nerve-wracking media interviews Better presentations More enjoyment from presenting – you might even start to look forward it! CLICK HERE FOR A QUOTATION You will learn How to draw on your hidden talents for public speaking and media interviews How to develop your talents into strengths that help you overcome your fear of presenting What sets our course apart Most trainers focus on their curriculum, not the individual. They try to impart the same public speaking or interviewing skills, irrespective of your starting point. They force you to adopt skills which come easy for extroverts, even if you are an introvert. This simply won’t work. No amount of rehearsing will help you turn a weakness in presenting into a strength. For the first time in Asia, we make the techniques fit in with you. Even if you think you're a terrible presenter, you always feel under-prepared, you don't like crowds, or you risk making a fool of yourself, we can help you build your confidence and rise above old fears. CLICK HERE FOR A QUOTATION Bonus You receive your own personal CliftonStrengths® assessment. While you’re here, record a video blog or interview you can publish on your own LinkedIn feed or YouTube channel.
