It popped up out of nowhere: AEG Digital Media Helps Live Events Get Social with MC Player

AEG Digital Media Helps Live Events Get Social with MC Player

“We are proud again to work with AEG Digital Media,” said Peter Anton, VP of Digital Media at The Recording Academy and executive producer of GRAMMY Live. “Their arsenal of digital media products is second to none and is helping us continually provide the expanding audience a more engaging, multi-faceted web video viewing experience.”

The app further enhances viewing times and increases audience interactivity as viewers answer trivia questions, participate in polls, and see interesting stats and announcements that transform fans from event spectators to participants. The MC expands on AEG Digital Media’s product suite, which combines an enhanced, multi-angle live media player and social media aggregation tool.

“Our product suite’s components collectively extend viewing times for live-streamed events, with consumers, webcasters and advertisers benefiting from more engaging interaction,” said John Petrocelli, vice president of sales and business development for AEG Digital Media. “Our customers have already deployed the Tremolo Player and the Hawk with impressive results, upon which MC builds. MC is the clear complement to our other products and allows us to deliver an unmatched service to our customers and advertisers.”
