Video: Green Power conference at Chicago’s Art Institute

Art Institute, April 8-9, 2008: Speakers and delegates from the Sustainable Manufacturing (GreenPower Conferences) meet in Chicago to share best practices for lowering carbon impact in manufacturing sectors.

I was really glad to get this assignment to shoot a short-film documentary from a conference that has global impact, in more ways than one. So yesterday I filmed and reported from the Loop, the grounds of The Art Institute where dozens of managing directors from global companies shared their success and strategies for reducing their carbon emissions, reducing energy usage, saving money and shaping social policy. Normally I only get hired to report from journo conventions, so this was a nice departure - to be the ONLY journalist at a gathering.

So, this is solo VJ, one man, one camera, one tripod, one wireless lav and one laptop with FCP.
You want to learn how to do it too? Come to the video training that Visual Editors is producing in Chicago next month.

Here’s the sign-up details from the non-profit’s site.
