TRIO VIDEO FAX CHECK Fall 2009/Winter 2010
Welcome back to Trio Video's Fax Check. Along with our regular wide-ranging
line up of local/national sporting events, we continued to be the "go to"
truck vendor for just about every major North American music and comedy
festival.
In addition, Trio again provided trucks and technical support to the
award-winning Chicago Marathon production team, traveled the country for
ESPN College Football and was proud to renew our multiyear production
agreement with NFL on Fox. Here are just some of the details:
A Historic Moment in San Francisco
Trio was pleased to once again supply
HD mobile units, Tango and Beta, plus required technical support to Outside
Lands Fest in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, produced by Superfly
Presents, Another Planet Entertainment, Star Hill Presents and ThirdWave
Productions. The festival, headlined by Dave Mathews Band, Pearl Jam and
Black Eyed Peas was the 1st live music festival webcast on YouTube.com. For
more information, see SFoutsidelands.com.
An Award Winning Production Team
For over two decades, Trio Video has
supplied HD/SD mobile units and tech support to cover one of North America's
premier events - The Chicago Marathon. This year was no different as the
Emmy Award winning production and on-air talent team of WMAQ/NBC 5 produced
the telecast of NBC 5 Presents: The Bank of America Chicago Marathon.
Congratulations to everyone at Chicago's WMAQ/NBC 5. You can check out

Making the Connection for Lollapalooza and Austin Music Festivals
For the
4th and 3rd consecutive years respectively at Chicago's Lollapalooza Music
Festival and Austin City Limits Music Festival in Texas, Trio Video's tech
support crew supplied equipment and high-speed local-area HD networks that
fed live music performances to more than 20 on-site locations, as well as
nationwide distribution for IClips.com and Hulu.com. The festivals were
headlined by Dave Mathews Band, Pearl Jam, Kings of Leon and the Killers.
Special thanks go out to producers C3 Presents and Giant Pictures. For more

A Decade of Music History
According to Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune;
the 2002 relaunch of Coachella and Bonnaroo Music Festivals "was one of the
top 10 key moments that shaped the decade in music and helped to rejuvenate
the touring business". Trio is honored to be part of the production teams
that created these unforgettable and historic events. Special thanks to AEG
Goldenvoice/Springboard Productions and AC Entertainment/Superfly and
ThirdWave Productions. See the whole story at ChicagoTribune.com
College Football - An American Tradition Continues
From Chapel Hill to
Fort Worth and Kalamazoo to Miami, Trio's HD MU Rhythm and newly-launched
support unit Blues teamed up with ESPN to cover a full slate of Men's NCAA
Division I Football games, including title bouts between the Middle
Tennessee State Blue Raiders and Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles at the
R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. Trio was also on location as the University
of Houston Cougars battled the Falcons of the Air Force Academy in the 7th
annual Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl... and coming up, the East-West
Shrine Game (the longest-running college all-star football game in the
country) at the Florida Citrus Bowl in Orlando.
