A photo of Michael Phelps at a recent Tri-Marq event.

Michael Phelps

November 9, 2016  by Betsy Johnson

Type: Keynote

It has been a while since my last post. I have been on the road constantly the last month or so going from one event to the next. Lots of reviews and posts will follow.

I am excited about today’s post because it is a review of an exciting and very new person to the keynote stage: Michael Phelps. I had the pleasure to work with Phelps on what was one of his first keynote presentations.

Pros: The excitement and energy in the audience was obvious as soon as Michael entered the room. A prior VIP meet and greet where Michael took pictures (with a gold medal if the attendee wanted) was a great way to start the evening.

The keynote was done in an interview style.  The president of the company holding the event served as the moderator. A Q&A section followed.

The conversation covered Michaels rise to success with an emphasis on his work ethic. They also covered preparation for each Olympics, stories from the Olympics and background on the Not-For-Profit organization that Michael runs (Michael Phelps Foundation).

Cons:  The only thing to note is that Michael is not a polished presenter yet.  The interview style worked great for this event and I would expect that eventually a standard keynote will be something Michael offers. 

Producer’s Notes:  I would strongly recommend Michael Phelps: a very timely, energetic and fun keynote.  The meet and greet was a great feature and should be part of every booking with Phelps.

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
