Behind The Scenes – Pilot Freight

February 24, 2010

One of our favorite jobs last year was for Pilot Freight. Pilot is a freight forwarding company based in suburban Philadelphia. The company has a yearly 3 day sales and company meeting as well as an awards banquet that is held in a different US city each spring. We love this client because they are creative and want to produce an awards ceremony this is unique, entertaining and fun for the guests. Last year the theme of the event was “Super Heroes” We created a fictional comic book hero appropriately named “Pilot-man” A custom created opening to the first night included a 5 minute animated video of a 1970’ era comic book where Pilot-man battled the evil “delayor” as well as “Fred-Ex” The set we created was inspired by the artwork in the comic strip. Pictures of this event last year can be seen here: http://www.eventionsproductions.com/gallery.php?albumid=29

We are glad to be working with Pilot again and will feature a weekly blog on how we put this event together. The theme this year is a take-off of the 1970’s TV hit, “Laugh In.” We are going to re-create the TV set and the famous “Joke Wall,” Go-Go dancers, and of course amazing audio, video and lighting. We are headed down to the impressive Gaylord National in Washington DC tomorrow to do a location survey and then we will start designing the event.
