Great thinking, and impressive work putting this together so quickly!
The agenda for the broadcast is here. A live host will provide updates and commentary during a varied programme of pre-recorded videos.
That made me wonder if the videos are pre-recorded videos from past events, or if they’re new videos but pre-recorded rather than live streams. But the agenda seems to indicate neither, as the titles are unfamiliar to me and they’re listed as live streams. Are they indeed pre-recorded?
Also, does the nature of this event mean the videos are likely to be on YouTube sooner than normal?
Thanks for your kind words and for your question! We have a mix of content that we are testing:
AMA’s: folks asked questions on the Forum and we are conducting and recording interviews today
Talks: most of the talks are new recordings, which we will record today
“Greatest hits”: we are also showing two recordings from past EA Global conferences as a test
My welcome talk and the MC hosting by Nathan will be done live from our home in Detroit
We are trying to test a few different content types so that we can learn as much as we can for possible future events and to hopefully find some virtual content types that people really like! The videos will be combined with our live hosting via a live stream this weekend. This should mean that we can post the videos on YouTube sooner.

Sounds great, and thanks for the response!
