Video presenters whose films were selected for presentation in the Video session are kindly requested to review the guidelines below in preparation for the session.

SURGICAL FILM COLLECTION

• You do not need to email/upload your video presentation prior to the congress.  Please deliver the video on flash memory or hard disk with unlimited space, and one of the technicians in the Speakers’ Ready Room will assist as soon as you arrive at the Venue, and at least 2 hours before the start of the session..
• Films will be played muted during the session, and presenters are requested to narrate them live.

SURGICAL FILM LIVE NARRATION

Surgical Film presenters should not prepare PPT slides. Instead, they are requested to:

• Attend their session onsite.
• Come on stage when called, introduce themselves, and verbally state their conflict of interest if there
  is such. If not, please specify this at the beginning of your presentation by saying “I have no conflicts to
  disclose”.
• Narrate the film live while it is playing on the screen.
  • The film will be started and operated by the onsite technicians.
  • The film will be muted to allow interactive live narration.
  • Participate in a short Q&A after the film, which will be moderated by the session chairs.

IMPORTANT – CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE

Please note that as per the CME accreditation requirements, it is mandatory to verbally disclose your conflict of interest at the beginning of your presentation or state that you do not have such.
