If using any pictures, please make sure the Video Department has them and knows your
order. Please use only pictures found in our publica,ons. If you plan to use pictures
found elsewhere, please email them to me at least a month before the conven,on for
approval.
Please send all pictures and scriptures in order to AV Department
(k.vusumuzi@yahoo.com) before 21 August, 2016. Please send the Link via google drive
or drop box. Late submissions will not be accepted! Because of streaming the set-up has
changed and all videos and pictures need to be sent earlier.
NOTE: Since we have DVD publica,ons available, we are encouraging all speakers to use
the scriptures already signed on the DVDs in your talks. These will be played for you on
screen.
Please give par,cular aWen,on to how you sign all other scriptures our teaching is
based on Gods Word.
We also have facility to display pictures, but please use these sparingly, in accord with
the leWer from the Branch dated July 2, 2007.

As directed from the Branch, in general, a brother giving a talk should look directly into
the camera.
As we know this conven,on will be streaming for Durban and delayed streaming for
Cape Town and PE. Please dear brothers we know the are popular signs at our areas
where we live that we might want to use but for showing concedare,on for our dear
brothers and sisters who will aWend this conven,on in other places men,oned above.
Please refer to the South African Sign Language DVDs to use signs that are commonly
known.
Please note there will be a make-up team behind the stage this year. It's not compulsory
but does help with the quality.
All must check in (1) on the rst day of the conven,on, (2) 30 minutes prior to the start
of the program on the day of your assignment, and (3) 30 minutes before you are due to
appear on the plalorm. However, if you a visi,ng speaker assigned to par,cipate in the
program only on one of the days, you may check in on the day of your assignment.
Please report any problems, e.g. Par,cipants arriving late, no shows etc. promptly.

We are looking forward to your oering and appreciate the hard work and prepara,on thus far.
Warm Chris,an Love and Gree,ngs
