Recording of Sessions  

AAG will not automatically record sessions; each session organizer is asked in advance whether they wish to opt in or not. Session organizers are responsible for communicating with all of their presenters to make sure that they are in agreement. Recorded sessions will be available for viewing by registered attendees for up to 180 days after the last day of the event. Program committee organized sessions will not be recorded. To read our other event policies, visit our AAG Policies Page. 

Audio/Video Recommendations 

  • External webcams may provide the best video quality  

  • Be aware of your background, and warn those around you that you will be on a live video call. 

  • A headset or earbuds with a microphone can provide the best sound quality during the session. 

  • Laptop speakers and microphones may create feedback when not muted, and have the potential for poor sound quality. 

  • Mute your microphone when not speaking. 

  • Closed Captioning will be available and enabled for all sessions
