Our first time publicly exhibiting at a tradeshow, and the launch of our integration with Apple Final Cut and Adobe Creative Suite — NAB ’09 was big for Market7. The event was augmented by two veteran hosts showing us around.
Given that Apple doesn’t exhibit at NAB (or hardly any conference — won’t even deliver next year’s MacWorld keynote!). Anyhow, given that, the Final Cut Pro Users’ Group’s “Superbooth” was a perfect location for us to get a demo pod and launch our integration with Final Cut. Tremendous quality traffic too as avid users of that software / emergent users of our software came by for the every 40 minutes FCP tips & tricks instructional sessions from superstar teachers. And of course, the legendary FCPUG SuperMeet last Tuesday night seemed to draw thousands, all sitting rapt with attention through session after session until practically midninght.
The attention, dedication and energy of video producers and editors was perhaps the strongest impression made on me in Las Vegas last week. I showed up for a 6PM presentaiton at the ProMAX Digital Lounge last week to find people milling about the drinks and hors d’eouvres in a Venitian suite, and figured I had no chance for anyone’s attention at the end of a day among the booths. But as soon as ProMAX CEO Jess Hartmanstepped forward to introduce me I had every eye on me and the projector’s image of my slides and presentation, with a queue to further discuss as I finished.
Our strong week was in large part thanks to the friendship and support of Michael Horton, Dan Berube and the rest of the FCPUG crew + of Jess, Marcello Lewin and their ProMAX / PixelHeads Netork crowd (it seems that many hold joint membership in both of those gangs). We are enjoying converting these endorsements to Market7 success, and we look forward to further engagement with the passionate video devotees who assemble around these great organizations.
