Be a Creative Morning Person

June 28, 2016  by Betsy Johnson

In a creative industry, I think we are always keeping our eye out for inspiration. We’re looking for a moment that sparks an idea or fires us up about a project. Recently I’ve noticed that these moments come from collaborating and surrounding myself with other creatives—those people that have the same but completely opposite brain as me all at once.  

I discovered a group called Creative Mornings that offered that kind of creative community. This group organizes breakfast lectures once a month that pulls in all kinds of creative types. Each month a national theme is announced and a local maker, doer, designer or entrepreneur is highlighted and they give a talk in each city. Plus, it’s 100% free AND you get free coffee. (Coffee, you know, the creative fuel.)

For 90 minutes there is a unifying, creative energy in the room. Ideas are sparked. Thoughts are shared that resonate with the audience. By the time the talk ends, everyone leaves with their idea tank filled up.

The last Creative Morning I went to was in Chicago in a warehouse. Yes, a warehouse! The warehouse is being transformed into a workshop collaboration space called Lost Arts by one of the co-founders of Kickstarter, Charles Adler. The best thing he shared was “Rules are not meant to be broken. Rules are temporary.” 

There are over 100 chapters of Creative Mornings all over the world—so go be creative beyond the 9-5 and meet some awesome people in your city!

This #tbt, we're throwing it back when we partnere This #tbt, we're throwing it back when we partnered with @greystarapartments to create this video geared toward employee recruitment. Tri-Marq had crews on location for several days at different locations and events, capturing several interviews from staff and executives, b-roll footage during construction tours, and finished properties.

Once location shooting was complete, Tri-Marq developed the story from the interviews. This phase began with transcriptions and searching through the hours of sound bites from the staff and executives. Once the story formed, b-roll, photographs and music and sound track are added to round out the video.

Greystar used this video as an addition to their efforts to recruit new employees through their campus visits and online. In addition to this long-form video, Tri-Marq also created shorter, easy to digest clips for each topic for individual marketing purposes.

From producing the general session to providing tech support for breakout rooms, capturing headshots and event photography, and filming testimonials, we were proud to be a full-service partner for this multi-day event. When the welcome reception outgrew its original space late in the planning process, we quickly adapted the general session setup to keep the event flowing seamlessly. #eventproduction #liveevents #corporateevents #trimarq
