“Live-streaming is a gateway to human connection while being apart.”

 

Chris Lee is a FedEx pilot who additionally works with the Pilot Union at FedEx. The union utilizes live-streaming to share meetings and updates with the pilots at FedEx. “Live-streaming is a digital video that allows viewers to watch what is being recorded in real time.”

 

“Even outside of my work, live-streaming is used throughout my daily life. It’s a great tool, especially during the pandemic, that I can use to watch family events that I can’t attend. Live-streaming records sports, weddings, get-togethers, basically anything you can think of. I usually watch it through social media or my place of work.” Mr. Lee explains how live-streaming has had a positive impact throughout careers and home life. It’s a way to experience community and unity in today’s busy world. “I am able to watch my family play sports if I can’t fly to some of their games. I hope it makes them feel supported even if I’m not there physically.”

 

“I truly believe that live-streaming will be around for awhile, I don’t see it going anywhere. It’s amazing to watch people grow and connect and live on a single platform.”
