A Cross Country Team You Can Root For

Broadcasting Nani Nalu’s Busty Beachwear Bash

It might have been one of the more unique shoots we’ve been to in a while, but recently we were on location with Jenn Cermak and her models from Nani Nalu Beachwear Boutique as they did a fashion show live on the air with the Shop Girls from FM107.1. The unusual part was that it took place in a grocery store. Check out this video promoting Nani Nalu’s Busty Beachwear Bash at Kowalski’s Market in Eagan.

Concordia Academy Volleyball 2009

We just wrapped up one of our famous “sports experience” videos for Concordia Academy’s volleyball team, and here’s the opening we created for the DVD. We love capturing the action on the court (or field), but also the special memories that take place between games. We’ll post a few more samples soon, but in the meantime, you can check out some more “sports experience” samples.
