At APFC, we’re all about pushing boundaries and going the extra mile to deliver premiere production and broadcast solutions. For our recent project with Jostens, an American leader in providing yearbooks, class rings, and school memorabilia, we did exactly that—traveling all the way from Orlando, Florida, to Minneapolis, Minnesota, for an event that required our full range of expertise.

A Full-Spectrum Production Experience for Jostens

Jostens, known for creating memorable moments for students, families, and schools across the nation, trusted us to provide an extensive range of services for their yearly team event. From lighting and audio to broadcast solutions, teleprompters, stage design, and even online broadcasting, we were responsible for ensuring that every technical detail was perfect.

Our team brought their A-game, providing customized lighting that set the tone for the event, audio systems that ensured crystal-clear sound across the venue, and high-definition video feeds for a seamless IMAG, online broadcast and event recording. This level of care and attention to detail is what sets us over here at AFPC apart!

The Logistics of a Cross-Country Event

While the event itself was a massive success, the real challenge began before the first piece of equipment was even packed. Coordinating an event of this scale from across the country requires extraordinary planning. Our warehouse and logistics teams worked in tandem to prepare, pack, and safely transport all of the gear necessary for this complex setup.

Packing everything from cameras and audio equipment to lighting rigs and broadcast systems requires precision. Our team ensured that every item was carefully cataloged and transported to avoid any delays or surprises.

Overcoming the Challenges of Distance and Time

As anyone in this industry knows, travel logistics can make or break a project, and traveling to Minneapolis in winter comes with its own set of unique hurdles. Cold temperatures, tight travel schedules, and coordinating with local vendors to ensure the venue’s readiness were just a few of the hurdles our team faced.

However, this didn’t stop us. We’re used to working under pressure, and our team was ready to face every obstacle head-on. From the moment we arrived, we adapted to the venue’s specific needs and made on-the-fly adjustments to deliver the best possible experience for Jostens and their team.

Whether it’s a local event or a cross-country production, we pride ourselves on delivering reliable, high-quality services. With a team dedicated to excellence and a commitment to the client experience, APFC ensures that every event we support is a success.

The Takeaway: Quality and Commitment

This event with Jostens is a perfect example of how we combine high-quality technical equipment, meticulous planning, and a dedicated team to deliver outstanding results, no matter the distance. Whether you’re looking for a large corporate event setup, broadcast solutions, or cutting-edge lighting and audio, APFC has you covered.
