The more we use the wall, year after year, the more it becomes a staple of our ceremony. I just want to continue to show how much engagement we’re getting and all the fun ways it can involve parents, families, and students. And it really gets people excited to see themselves up on the screen.


The social wall is for use during our summer festival in The Jennie Kassanoff & Dan Schulman Welcome Center, located on the main path in the middle of our campus. The advantage of the social wall for us is being able to represent all the members of our community and spread awareness of our many different programs.


TwitchVision was a fun competition that had to do with creative people, great music, and lots of different creators and communities. So I thought it would be a great idea to include a “social wall” section within the show to engage the audience, interact with their posts, and encourage them to support their favourite songs by posting about them and getting featured on the TwitchVision wall.


Walls.io offers us many options, both regarding the technical setup as well as the design. By putting social media content from various channels on the website, we can also reach those users who don’t use any of the social media networks we’re on.


We showed the wall on a big screen on stage after each moderation part, in the break, and during the workshop as well. It was really great because people could always see what was happening on social media. We really liked how easy it was to set up a social wall with Walls.io. We went for the event subscription, so I only did a trial run one day before our event and it was really easy. I just connected our Twitter and Instagram accounts and defined our hashtag #BMWWOLCON in the sources. And that was it — incredibly easy.


I strongly feel that cities will not communicate correctly until they have a Walls.io-type experience. And I’m not going to feel good until all these other cities have a version of this. They’re doing their cities a disservice by not creating this type of platform. And using Walls.io could easily be one of the most cost-effective ways of promoting information locally.
