Our rockin' Trade show Booth!! ~ The video

January 7, 2009 Posted in Personal, Photography

Edit: Here is a link to the details of how the booth was made before arriving at the show.

Almost a year ago we posted some photos on the blog of our trade show booth from February 2008 (see here), and we had an amazing response about it. We have been still receiving emails asking us how we did it.
Ryan put this video time lapse of the production of the booth the day before our trade show. The entire thing took us 4 hours to put together, (as it was our very first time putting the entire thing together) and the take down only 1 hour and 30 mins. back into the truck.

Here is the video:

Happy Trade Show Season!!

Ryan Rowell - they were video lights that I already owned and simply added to the wall. they are 500w halogen lowel tota lights just mounted to the top of the wall.

Scott - Can you please tell me where the wall sconces were purchased from? Thanks!

Ryan Rowell - the dimensions aren’t anything special, just 2:1 so I went out the back 1′ and up the wall 2′ as for how to attach them I would suggest screws but that is up to you if you want to use glue but you might be there a while. The back was setup so I could put sandbags over the brace, but used water softener salt bags instead so they would have a use later.

Henry - Could you give me the dimensions of the triagular stand that you built to hold the wall up and how you went about attaching all of the pieces? Thanks in advance

Judith - Hi Erika! First I have to say I am highly jealous of your upcoming trip to France! I’ll stow away in a suitcase :) Second, I have to say thank you for visitng my site. I am so glad you did because it led me here! I have always loved photography and I’m excited to look through your posts. This trade show looks like a lot of work but it came out fabulous! Great post!!! I look forward to reading more :)

Ryan Rowell - Thanks Andrea, I will hold you to that. BTW I am still not taken. JK

Andrea Rudyk - Looks amazing! I would get married just to have you guys take the photos.

Erika Hanchar - Hey Amber- the decals like Ryan said were from Rona, they are soo cool, we have a big Gold tree decal we are going to put up in our house soon. They come on al sizes, shapes and colors. They are about $20 give or take.

Ryan Rowell - I dont remember exactly, but I have a hunch it was at Rona (Canadian version of Home Depot and we have those here too).

Ryan McGovern - Love Trade Show Season :) hehe

Melanie - Ok, loved the visual! I’m curious about the album, was that submerged in water? If so, what album company makes an album substantial enough to withstand the water. Very cool.
Thanks for sharing!

Phyllis - This is great! The booth looked wonderful and the video was very helpful. Thank you for posting this for us.

Ryan & Erika - I thought is was funny, especially when the tape measure fell three times off the side of the booth. The couch was found at Home Hardware’s Home Furniture store. The middle section is great as a little table to put the album on for two people viewing, and the coffee table was used as a seat most times too.
