Academy Annual Meeting 2019 – National Harbor, Maryland

Working with our client for the past several years, we are always trying to make the next event more impressive, more engaging, and more theatrical. In 2019, we incorporated a kabuki drop as part of the opening, tying in their theme of “Unlocking Your Ingenuity” and creating a Houdini like beginning. Theatrical lights and musical sound engineering created an engaging and theatrical experience for the attendees. The screen was 136’ curved, with the full use of the screen, allowing for large bold video elements and graphics. Using our media servers, we created a seamless viewing experience for the audience.

Number of Attendees: 2,500

Location: Gaylord National Harbor, Maryland

Screen Size: 21’ x 136’ curved

Opening Talent: Incoming President and current Executive Vice President

Gear Used: Four Stacked Projector Blend, AI Media Server, Spyder, Kabuki Drop, Lighting was a combination of the latest LED moving lights.

- Kristi, Director, Global Events and Tradeshows, CMP

Amazing job. Thank you for all the technical and creative support. Appreciate the partnership and wonderful attention to detail.

- Erin, Senior Director, Global Communications

We are always impressed with EPS's knowledge, professionalism and commitment to be a true partner in the production of an event. They are willing to think out of the box in order to fulfill budget needs with the event needs in a way that is seamless to the attendees. Their attention to detail and client concerns is unbelievable!

- Laura, Meeting Manager

From the very beginning EPS tackled our shows with professionalism and precision. They always takes the clients needs into account in the smallest details. Mike ensured continuity from show to show with frequent communications, understanding the expectations that we brought to them and in most cases they even brought in the same crew whenever available.

- Kami, Manager, Meetings & Events

I have had the privilege of working with Mike on a recent program with a very important client, under an extremely short planning timeline cycle. He jumped in fully with his can-do attitude approach on any request made to ensure the job got done. Ultimately with any vendor partnership, it is critical to be on the same page and develop a certain level of trust to ensure the program is successfully executed. He has an aptitude for understanding his clients and takes pride in what he does and it shows by the level of service he provides to ensure programs are effective, that's what makes him stand out from all other Technical Directors.

- Samantha, Director, Professional Development

Working with Elite Production Services (EPS) was one of the best decisions we made for our virtual event. We hired EPS to work with the comedian and DJ we booked for our virtual event, and they took every change in stride when we moved from a live event to a pre-recorded show with after the fact edits! Their suggestions for the script and run of show made our event so engaging and interactive, most of our attendees didn’t even know it wasn’t live! They took our virtual happy hour program to the next level and we’ve gotten nothing but rave reviews. Their professionalism, creativity and flexibility were instrumental in the overall success of our program, and we look forward to the next opportunity to work with them again.

- Gaylen, Quality Operations Lead
