WHAT IS AN EMCEE, EXACTLY?

Master of Ceremonies is often abbreviated as "MC", or "Emcee", referring to the head person in charge of speaking throughout an event. Emcees help elevate the atmosphere of your event with their professionalism. 

Emcees introduce all event speakers to the audience, guide the audience on when and how to participate; for instance, cue the audience on when to give applause. The Emcee also helps guests network with one another, and warms the audience up to have a positive event. Ultimately the Emcee keeps the audience informed of the focus of the event. 

ADDITIONAL EMCEE TITLES 

The role and title of a Master of Ceremonies may change based on the event. Masters of Ceremonies appear in the entertainment industry, including; on game shows, in music culture, in the corporate world, during cultural events, in weddings, and more!
