At least for myself, a lack of experience in an industry inspires my creative thoughts. Luxury yachts, sport boats, private jet travel and unique time pieces is what made up “The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show” #FLIBS.

My assignment included capturing images and video for the eventual story telling of the event and for enhancing the #FLIBS brand. It was an assignment in an industry I had no real experience with.  This inexperience is what made for fresh creative thinking!

“The boat show is phenomenal for business. It is a vibrant marketplace. After 26 years I do not remember it being any better.”
~ Chuck Cashman, Chief Revenue Officer, MarineMax

“From an economic standpoint it is the local Superbowl for us. The sales and tourism impact from the show is likely to be even bigger this year for us.”
~ Stacy Ritter, President and CEO, Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention and Visitors Bureau

These audience statistics helped my point of view.

• 52 countries were represented
• $508,000,000 in total sales during the show
• 40% of attendees are C-level executives or business owners

I just got back from a trip to Belize for Norwegian Cruise Lines and have some cool content from deep in the Mayan country side. Stay tuned
