promoting fitness in the workplace. The Corporate Challenge, which was
begun in 1977, is held in 12 cities on 5 continents. The video was shot

TITLE: Corporate Capabilities
CLIENT: Northrop Grumman Corporation
PURPOSE: Marketing / Exhibit / Display
Produced as the signature marketing presentation for the Paris Air Show,
this video was shown in the foyer of Northrop Grumman's corporate
chalet, an environment that was challenging due to a multitude of
background conversations and distractions. With that in mind, compelling
high-definition visuals coupled with an engaging original music score
was the way to go. In order to serve an international audience, simple
on-screen titles, translated into the most commonly spoken languages,
were used in place of a traditional narration. The program was produced
in high definition and was shown on a 16-screen plasma array with
surround sound audio.
