Studio Tour Recap and Grand Prize Winners

Over 100 people participated in the Horizon Productions’ milestone event on September 19, 2013, at our custom designed studio suites in Durham, NC.  The Horizon Studio Tour was held to celebrate over 30 years of successful business and to share some “behind the scenes” fun with clients.

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“When I started Horizon in 1982, the internet didn’t exist and videos certainly didn’t play on phones. The industry has changed, but our dedication to creativity and customer service has never wavered” noted Donna Mitchell, Horizon founder, president, and CEO at the event’s start.

 

 
The Studio Tour was set up to give each client a glimpse at our facilities and capabilities.  Guests were each given goodie bags to fill and studio tour maps to follow. Studio Tour stations included: Welcome, Prize Corner, Animation & Web, Post-Production, Video Studio, Audio Studio and Horizon Helps.  The Horizon team made sure that guests had the chance to learn of the equipment and skills highlighted at each station.  In some cases, guests also got a chance to try out production on their own with reading narration scripts for movie trailers (with sound effects added later) or acting out changing scenes in front of the green screen. 

 

 

Those who completed the tour were entered into the grand prize drawing for an ipad, Kindle, or portable speakers.  Our winners include:  Ali M., Scott J., Bridgette S., Tracy W., Anne G., Charlotte D., John B., Colby W., Nancy C., and Philip S.  Congrats to our big winners!  Of course, all guests got goodie bags with ear buds, journals, pens, flash drives, and lots of movie theater candy.

 


“It’s a rare treat to be able to share a company’s 30 year history – especially with the clients and supports who are part of that history.  We look forward to the next Studio Tour in 2043!” said Megan Bell, Horizon’s Director of Business Development and Project Manager.
