Chuck Joiner once again treats us to a behind the scenes look at Macstock, it’s presenters, and sponsors in his special MacVoices video series, The Road to Macstock! In this installment of The Road to Macstock 2017 Chuck sits down with Brian Henson, Macstock’s volunteer speaker liaison, to give a little insight into how he helps each speaker prep for their presentations at Macstock.

This Road to Macstock interview features Brian Henson, a volunteer for the event who has the responsibility of getting the speakers on the stage on time, with no technical problems, and ready to go. Brian talks about what speakers can do, at Macstock and elsewhere, to make that job easier, why he volunteers, and what he gets out of Macstock each year.

Making videos can change the way you look at TV, commercials, and movies. Wally talks about what you can learn from all three, how stories are told in two to three minutes, and how he will approach the subject at Macstock.
