Abstract

A technique for providing presentation material in an on-going virtual meeting includes converting a real-world (RW) presentation into a virtual-world (VW) presentation. A media format of the VW presentation corresponds to a media format utilized by a target VW. The VW presentation is then stored in an RW media repository. The VW presentation is associated with an RW media uniform resource locator (URL). A VW screen control script is used to set a VW media URL associated with a VW screen parcel to the RW media URL. The VW presentation is then provided to participants of the VW meeting by accessing the RW media repository using the VW media URL.
