NSHMBA, a professional organization for Hispanic business
professionals, asked Motion Post, a member of the Chicago Convention and Tourism Bureau, to work with their
organization and videotape their annual conference. The conference was held in Chicago, October
2010. Motion Post spent three
consecutive days at McCormick place capturing the annual show from every
aspect. The NSHMBA conference consisted
of professional workshops, an opportunity to meet potential employers, business
luncheons and dinner along with networking sessions including music and
dancing. The video is currently being
used on NSHMBA web site to promote the 2011 conference in Anaheim
California. Motion Post is in the
process of creating a second promotional video for the 2011 event.

Ed Says: We've just released the trailer to a new feature length documentary project. The footage is fantastic and the subject matter promises to be very compelling.
Motion Post teamed up with the Chicago Branch of the American Marketing Association to produce several videos to draw marketers to their latest thought leadership conference, BrandSmart 2010. BrandSmart featured some great keynote speakers like Jon Pollock, from Polariod and Len Hostetter, from Fed Ex. Motion Post created these videos from thought to finish, working with our creative team and the folks from AMA Chicago.
Six weeks before the conference, we interviewed several AMA Chicago members discussing marketing trends today and why you should attend a conference like BrandSmart. After a day's worth of interview we sat down to cut together several documentary style ads for BrandSmart. The videos went out in the AMA Chicago’s email campaign a month before the start of the conference.
Here is the finished product. We also produced several “spoof” videos with the help of AMA Chicago Member Megan Gauss. Megan’s day job is with the Chicago Convention and Tourism bureau but she moonlights at Second City.
The Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center just celebrated it's 1 year anniversary. I can't express enough what an honor and pleasure it was for us to be asked to help create this profile of the museum's first year.
Ed says: The first episode of Mission Coffee Can is being released this week. This series is the culmination of months of hard work by Sinnott Productions and Motion Post for Bunn-O-Matic. This is by far my favorite kind of documentary project -- following interesting people pursuing a dream, not quite sure what we will get, then finding the stories in the footage and bringing it all into focus.
