LIVE EVENT TIPS
| |
TIP: Most video projectors are 1024 by 768 pixels (standard definition). Building your Powerpoint presentation in that resolution will produce the sharpest possible image. The mistake many make is to make things like text too small. What looks good on your computer screen may NOT translate onto the big screen. Consult the video director of your event before building your Powerpoint presentation.

CORPORATE EVENT PRODUCTION
WE'RE NOT JUST ABOUT CONCERTS ANYMORE
|
With hundreds of conferences, award shows, and special events in our portfolio, AXE Productions has established itself as the premier production company for all scales of corporate events. From the Chamber of Commerce events to the Alberta Aboriginal Youth Achievement Awards, UNICEF Gala, and the ScotiaBank Pro-Am Hockey Tournament, AXE Productions has covered everything from panel discussions to gala award shows in all types of venues including the World Trade Centre, Shaw Conference Centre, Edmonton Expo Centre, Rexall Place, the University of Alberta, recreation facilities, schools, community centres, hotels and more. "For years we had been seen as a concert production company," says Jon Beckett, President. " But in the past 10 years we have made our name known within the corporate circle. Our ability to deliver all facets of production, including video capture and playback, makes us a one-stop-go-to, quality service provider. We can even help script a show and develop video production elements."

 | AXE PRODUCTIONS TRUSS SERVING BAR SEE IT IN ACTION AT THE UNDERGROUND HUDDLE |
The AXEPRO Serving Bar is a custom designed modular serving bar combining trusses and plexiglass. It can be configured into several layouts including horseshoe, straightline, square and angled. Within the truss openings, LED lights are installed and can be programmed in one color, a variety of colors, or rotating colors. Single lights, including robotic lights, can be positioned at the top of each leg. Plasma screens can also be attached to the legs to create a multi media experience. The AXPRO Bar can be used for both large and small events. Professional caterers and bar managers enjoy the design as it allows for ease of service, offering substantial space to accommodate stock and material. The AXEPRO Bar is available with or without plasma screens and all costs include set-up and tear down.
You will be able to see a configuration of it at the upcoming UNDERGROUND HUDDLE in the underground parkcade at Edmonton City Centre November 25th to 28th. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
