Verizon Business announces a new production platform for setting up virtual events and livestreams. The platform, BlueJeans Studio, should allow anyone to create online videos that look professional. BlueJeans Studio will soon be available for free to all BlueJeans Events members.

Physical mass events have only been allowed to take place in limited numbers since the beginning of the pandemic. As a result, organizers soon found their way to online platforms. In fact, online events are now unthinkable and people are surprised when large-scale trade shows are held physically. The mountain of cancellations for CES 2022 has certainly demonstrated this.

So with the public, online events are already well ingrained, and the organizational side of things plays well into that. At least that’s what BlueJeans is showing anyway. The company announced the new production platform BlueJeans Studio. On that platform, organizers can easily set up livestreams of professional quality.

Everyone organizer

The new platform should give everyone the tools to produce professional virtual events and livestreams. Contributing to that is the ability to easily add multiple presenters on screen, customize the layout and custom branding.

Furthermore, it is possible to interact with the audience during the event through chat, Q&A and polls. There is also the possibility of displaying audience comments and reactions on the screen.

Verizon Business is not the only company betting on virtual events. For example, communications platform Zoom has had Zoom Events in its portfolio for some time, with more and more features being added. Only BlueJeans Studio ensures that organizers are not stuck with one platform. Events can be broadcast simultaneously on different social media platforms, YouTube, RTMP destinations and other streaming platforms.

BlueJeans Studio is being launched as a part of BlueJeans Events and will soon be available at no additional cost with an Events subscription.
