SPECTRUM RECALLED FOR DUTY BY THE UNITED STATES AIR FORCE!!
The U.S. Air Force called on Spectrum for the second time to produce a training video on the giant C5 Aircraft. This is the aircraft that transports tanks, armored personnel carriers and other heavy military equipment around the globe to support our troops. Spectrum was tapped by Kern Steel and the Air Force to develop a training program from script to screen on the proper use of the C5 Maintenance Stand and support equipment. The Spectrum Team spent a week on location at the Dover, Del., Air Force Base utilizing multiple cameras, time lapse video and other special effects to tell the story and keep our aircraft flying. The project included original animation and narrator segments shot green screen in Spectrum studios. Toughest part of the project? Trying to fit host Cathy Rankin into an Air Force jump suit that was twice her size and the smallest available! But, as always, Spectrum “flew” to the rescue with tape, clips and pins!! No bubble gum was needed, this time!! Spectrum’s team performed with precision. John Friesen directed, Dave Jones provided excellent camera work, Craig Fleming delivered superb lighting under very difficult conditions and audio tech Reed Hohenstein made sure our sound was crisp and clear in spite of the screaming jets all around us! And we can all sleep well tonight knowing that the C5’s are up and flying! There’s talk of Spectrum being called up for a third tour of duty with the Air Force, and of course, we’ll be glad to serve. We'll keep you posted! |

CALIFORNIA BEVERAGE TECHNOLOGIES POURS IT ON SPECTRUM
Here’s one EVERYONE will love. California Beverage Technologies has revolutionized golf. They’ve added two new “clubs” to the bag. Margaritas and Bloody Marys. CBT asked Spectrum to spotlight its Tee Box Beverage System – a new profit center and income stream for golf courses – margaritas and Bloody Marys delivered on tap, in seconds to golfers on the course. Needless to say, we were “all over” this project. Spectrum shot at courses around the Valley and talked with golfers, course owners and beverage managers for their reactions to the system. Everyone loved it! (DUH!) Spectrum produced a three-minute marketing video, capturing the flavor of the Tee Box System showing how fast and easy it is to use. The final piece is designed for Web and e-mail marketing use. CBT’s Jason Moen co-produced the video with Mark Herrmann of Alliance Beverage. DP Dave Jones shot great slowmo golf footage. Reed Hohenstein delivered on audio and editor John Friesen brought it all home in masterful style.
