JM-Pipe of Livingston, New Jersey, the world’s
largest plastic pipe manufacturer, and a subsidiary of the Formosa Plastics
Group, a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, based in Taiwan.
The
Situation:
JM-Pipe contracted with Media Magic
to assess
and manage all of the audio-visual reinforcement and live event, multi-camera broadcast video
production needs for a spectacular 2-day, 3 location Grand Opening event, attended
by
dignitaries from around the world. The mid-summer event heralded the
opening of
the world’s largest, state-of-the-art composite door manufacturing
facility,
located in northeastern Ohio, and owned by their subsidiary, PlastPro2000.
The
Strategy:
The Media Magic team worked closely, for several
weeks, with representatives from PlastPro2000, Growth Partnership for AshtabulaCounty and the technical team from Hughie’s Audio-Visual of
Cleveland, to assess the exact equipment, staging and crew needs and acquire
and set-up what was needed, on time, and in perfect working order, for the
multiple events.Media Magic assembled a hand-picked “Dream Team”
of 15 A/V and video production specialists into three main teams: two separate
teams to handle the A/V needs at both Grand Opening ceremony locations;the third, a camera crew to handle the 2-day
video production at all three venues.
The
Result:
Through the professionalism and tireless efforts
of all 15 Media Magic teammates, along with the hard work and attention to
detail provided by the Hughie’s A/V team, the Grand Opening event wentvery smoothly and was a technical success. Guests
were treated to outstanding sound and visuals, free of glitches, at all venues.
Our video production crews captured forever the grandeur and excitement of this
once-in-a-lifetime celebration for J-M Pipe and Plastpro2000. You can watch raw video clips from the event on our YouTube Channel.
