CAJ 2025 Annual Conference & Awards

Maven served as the live production and AV partner for the 2025 Canadian Association of Journalists Annual Conference & Awards at the Delta Hotel in downtown Calgary. The engagement spanned four concurrent event spaces: a main plenary room hosting keynotes and the evening awards gala, alongside three breakout rooms supporting the conference’s full program of professional development sessions.

In the plenary room, two PTZ cameras — a wide room shot and a close stage angle — ran through the CONSTELLATION production core alongside dual projector screens, comfort monitors, and a professional audio system with stage and audience Q&A microphones. The evening awards gala was streamed live to Zoom Webinar, with high-quality local recordings captured for post-event distribution. Each of the three breakout rooms was equipped with an independent presentation and sound system, staffed by a dedicated production crew member to ensure consistent support across all sessions.
