SolidLine Travels to Australia for Documentary Production
 Over the past 8 years, SolidLine Media has been documenting the Academy for Emerging Leaders in Patient Safety, creating short videos about their efforts to educate young medical students and doctors, and working on gathering footage for a longer documentary. This week, 50 patient safety students and experts gathered in Australia for the first ever Academy in Sydney. And, of course, SolidLine was onsite to capture the wonderful stories and learning happening during the retreat. It was an amazing week with lots of new content and perspectives from another part of the world on this important patient safety topic and current culture of healthcare. Footage has now been captured in the US, Middle East, and Australia for the larger documentary production.
"The Academy for Emerging Leaders in Patient Safety, The Sydney Experience, was an important event for young Australian future health leaders," states Kim Oates, MD, Director of Undergraduate Quality & Safety Education at Australia's Clinical Excellence Commission. "On the final day, we took the opportunity to showcase the event to a larger audience of healthcare professionals. A highlight of this session was the four-minute video clip produced by SolidLine Media which captured the spirit and enthusiasm of the scholars as they and the faculty discussed how they could contribute to a safer health system. It was a life changing experience for each of the scholars."
Check out the brief video below of our week in Australia.

SLM Producer on NAB 2016 Panel
 This month, SLM's very own Executive Producer, Greg Vass, had the awesome opportunity to be part of a panel discussion at NAB 2016 along with four other production professionals. Held at the Las Vegas Convention Center, NAB had over 100,000 attendees from 187 countries and is the largest annual convention in our industry. The panel discussion, "How Not To Screw Up When You Crew Up" was hosted by our pals at ProductionHUB and was live-streamed for folks who weren't able to watch in person. The discussion focused on current production trends, as well as hiring crew around the US and the world. The diverse panel participants offered plenty of perspective and insight.
"We were honored to host the thought leadership panel on crewing tips & tricks at the NAB Show," says Katrina de Leon, Director of Marketing for ProductionHUB.

SolidLine is consistently paving the way when it comes to professionalism & integrity; they continue to make us look good by exceeding client's expectations across the globe."
