Shining a Light on Innovation: Rival (Formerly SilkRoad Technology)

Imagine attending a four-day conference packed with cutting-edge HR software demos, engaging keynote speakers, and lively networking opportunities. Now, imagine reliving those moments through a captivating video that captures the essence of the event, showcases your company's expertise, and leaves a lasting impression on clients and employees alike. That's exactly what we did for Rival (formerly SilkRoad Technology), a leading Chicago-based HR software company.

Our challenge? To condense four days of content into a dynamic highlight reel that felt both immersive and informative. We started by immersing ourselves in the conference experience, soaking up the energy and identifying key moments that showcased Rival's technology, culture, and values. From in-depth interviews with company leaders to close-up shots of the user-friendly software in action, we captured the essence of the event.

The final product? A vibrant, fast-paced video that not only celebrates Rival's innovation but also serves as a valuable marketing tool. The video has been used to attract new clients, engage existing ones, and even boost employee morale.

Beyond the Brushstrokes: Art Institute of Chicago's J.A.M. Event

Stepping into the Art Institute of Chicago is like stepping into another world. Surrounded by timeless masterpieces, creativity pulsates within these hallowed halls. So, when tasked with documenting their J.A.M. (Jobs at Art Museums) event for aspiring art professionals, we knew we had to capture not just the information, but the inspiration.

Our approach was twofold: documentary and dynamic. We filmed panel discussions and career advice sessions, ensuring every nugget of wisdom was preserved. But we also weaved in captivating footage of the museum itself, showcasing its iconic galleries and bustling studios. The final video is a visually stunning and informative resource for students, offering a glimpse into the diverse career paths available within the art world.

The impact? The J.A.M. video has become a cornerstone of the Art Institute's recruitment efforts, attracting talented individuals passionate about pursuing careers in the arts.

Manufacturing Marvels: Okuma at McCormick Place

Sometimes, the most impressive stories unfold within the walls of convention centers. At McCormick Place, international manufacturing giant Okuma was showcasing their cutting-edge tools and machinery, seeking to captivate potential customers with their innovative prowess. Enter Mark Campbell Productions, ready to translate the power of these machines into a captivating visual narrative.

Our strategy involved strategic camera placement and lighting, capturing the intricate details of the machinery in action. We also conducted interviews with Okuma's engineers and product specialists, allowing them to tell the story behind the technology in their own words. The resulting video is a visually stunning and informative showcase of Okuma's capabilities, highlighting their commitment to precision, efficiency, and user-friendliness.
