As part of my project to find subjects that practice Buddhism, I embarked on a 6 week tour of the northwest part of the US. Naturally, part of my motivation is to visit national parks along the way and my first two stops where Badlands and Yellowstone.
In this article we dive deeper into how to make effective videos that lead to more engagement and the specific techniques you can use in your next video project.
We had the privilege of collaborating with the Trust for Public Land for their 50th anniversary celebration event in December. The gathering boasted an illustrious guest list, including the Mayor of San Francisco and other prominent figures. Our contribution involved delivering top-notch photo booth services and comprehensive video coverage, ensuring we captured the true essence of the celebration.
We recently engaged in one of our biggest headshot activations for Workday's SKO. Over the course of three days, we had six headshot stations and photographed about 2300 people! In the past year since the pandemic has subsided, we've done a lot of headshot activations and there a number of factors that make it a successful activation for the booking client as well as the end user (the subjects getting the headshots).
The marketing team of Allianz engaged with us for their wonderful client reception at the venerable Ferry Building. Additionally, we were on the show floor at Riskworld interviewing their employees on video on how they support their clients in a risky world and how nice it was to be back in-person at these live events.

Jack embarked on a southern migration a few weeks ago to escape the Michigan winter and work on his multimedia project, Beyond the Cushion. Having been in lock down for the past several years like everyone else, this is the first time he is able to use this nimble conversion van for an extended period to efficiently travel and stay inconspicuous!
