IES Webinar: Lighting Events for Live Streams and Live Audiences
Most branding and marketing events have conflicting requirements for the lighting: to establish the appropriate environment in the room for the attendees and to create effective content for a PR and marketing team to use in the future. With everyone having a camera on their phone, it is important for the lighting to create viral moments for social media, but it is equally vital for the in-person experience to feel special.

Presenters
Joe Saint
President, IMCD Lighting
Joe founded IMCD Lighting in 2006 after having spent many years in NYC working in fashion, theater and opera. His theater work includes work at multiple regional and off-Broadway theaters and as an assistant LD on six Broadway shows. He received his MFA in Lighting Design from the University of Virginia in 1992, and his MBA in Management from the Stern School of Business at New York University in 2006.
IMCD was founded in 2006 with an emphasis on quality. Our name references the four intrinsic qualities of light: Intensity, Movement, Color, and Distribution.
We quickly became an industry leader in Fashion Runway Lighting, and over the 20 years since we started, our client base has expanded beyond fashion. We have lit events and installations for many companies including Adidas, the American Kennel Club, Chanel, Genesis, Google, Hermes, Nike, Peloton, Target and many others. IMCD often will provide the entire package – design, equipment, labor, rigging and more – and at other times, just selected elements.
