Conventions with Las Vegas Video Production

Posted in Entertainment on June 11th, 2009

There are lots of things that go unnoticed either because they are boring or people simply do not think about them. My job fits both criteria so it’s no wonder that when I tell people I sell plumbing supplies their eyes instantly get a glassy sheen. Part of it is my enthusiasm; I could talk for hours on the differences between plumber’s putties or our latest line of inner washer couplers. Thankfully there are people that share my passion for pipes. Every year there is a convention in Las Vegas where companies and vendors rub elbows and show off the latest products. Unfortunately, our company is only large enough to afford one representative and everyone wanted to see the convention. That’s when I hatched my plan and found a Las Vegas video production company.

The plan worked wonderfully. I found a local video production company that send out a small ENG, electronic new gathering, crew to document the whole convention. At first a few of the vendors and booths were wary, but after the second day I had vendors giving small demonstrations and companies giving away some of their trade secrets. After the Las Vegas video production company helped me edit and format the film, I sent one to the convention president and took the other home with me. My company loved it, and, come to find out, so did the convention president. He elected me the convention videographer and now I’m in charge of making a convention video every year

Scariest Denver Haunted Houses

Posted in Entertainment on March 11th, 2008

I was surprised to learn that there are a large number of haunted houses in Denver. When I think of Denver, I think of the movie The Unsinkable Molly Brown, of snow skiing and a big airport, but I guess there are a lot of people in the area who like a good scare during the month of October.

Four of the most popular haunted houses in Denver have collaborated to sell passes that are honored at all four frightful establishments. If you can’t afford to spend $45 on an all-inclusive haunted house pass though, you may have to choose just one or two places to visit.

To help narrow down the choices, it may be helpful to learn a little about each house. I don’t mean learning so much that you can draw a blueprint of the place you are going to – after all, that would make it a lot harder to be surprised and scared during your visit – but it would be nice to know things like the themes, props and actors at each house and their hours of operation and admission prices.

Personally, when I try to find ratings, I feel like number systems give me a better idea of how well each category is presented than relative descriptions like “it was really scary.” If 10 is the scariest ranking that a house can be given, and one earns a 7 while another earns a five, I know immediately which place will fit my needs best. Ranking the houses in order of scariest to least-scariest would also be a great help to parents who are trying to decide which places would be the most fun for their family.

Columbus, Ohio Transportation Options

Posted in Entertainment on February 4th, 2008

Columbus, Ohio doesn’t have a reputation as a city with horrible traffic problems. It’s never mentioned in the same sense as New York and Atlanta, for instance, as a city with riddled with traffic jams and crowded freeways, but as one of the Nation’s 15 largest cities, it stands to reason that, inevitably, transportation issues will arise causing minor havoc, missed appointments, and a lot of frustration Read the rest of this entry »
