It’s using the Events Calendar 3 plugin, post thumbnails, the More Fields plugin, and a custom taxonomy.

My work consisted of encoding the video into 3 different sizes of both Mp4, and Ogg using FFMPEG, and FFMPEG2THEORA at optimal bitrates. Both Mp4 and Ogg filesizes are nearly identical in filesize and quality. This implementation of the video on the web uses the default HTML5 video player controls provided by the browser. I then use JavaScript to detect if HTML5 <video> is available and if not I replace it with a Flash video player, except for Safari which is known to have poor HTML5 video playback support. This was a quick turn-around of one day.
