🦃 Happy Thanksgiving!! 🦃
While most people are settling in at home with their families, some of our team members are out on the road making live television happen. Long days, late nights, early call times, and miles away from home—this industry isn’t always easy, but our crew shows up with unmatched commitment and professionalism every single time.
We’re incredibly grateful for the men and women who represent our company with such integrity while traveling for productions across the country. Their hard work is the reason our clients trust us, and it never goes unnoticed.
To our team on the road: thank you for what you do, the sacrifices you make, and the excellence you deliver wherever you go. We appreciate you more than you know. 💛🎥✨

We wrapped up the final stop of the HBCU Tour in Daytona Beach at Bethune Cookman University with ESPN’s First Take, and what an incredible way to finish strong! 🔥🎓

Our team handled the lighting for this show, and we couldn’t be prouder of how everything came together. From early call times to the energy of the crowd, it’s been an unforgettable experience supporting such an impactful tour that highlights the spirit, talent, and culture of HBCUs across the country.

A huge thank you to our crew for their hard work and dedication at every stop — you all knocked it out of the park. And thank you to First Take for trusting us to help bring the vision to life.

Daytona Beach, you were the perfect finale. 🌟

Huge thank you to the ACC Network team for trusting us once again, and an even bigger shoutout to our crew for their hard work and professionalism. Every show, every city — they show up and deliver.
