Videos of Events - What a great idea! Check out Denver's Senior Day at The Capitol 2014

Have to share that we worked with Colorado Senior Lobby and their Senior Day at The Capitol event. Karin Hall is a Board Member of Colorado Senior Lobby. At a planning meeting she shared the idea that it would be great to produce videos about the event and have live streaming. Live streaming was not in the budget but video production was. And everyone agreed and we did!

So Senior Day at The Capitol is over but not gone!
You can find it on YouTube
The group videotaped the event and posted it on their YouTube Channel. Watch the event videos to learn more about what this great event and the Colorado Senior Lobby organization is all about.

National Healthcare Decisions Day is today April 16th. Learn more about having advance directives and share this website. Professionals that serve seniors are in a great position to share information about advance directives with people of all ages. The group has a short video that eloquently explains why advance planning is so important.

Where are events going in regard to media strategy?

When I ask the question, "Where are events going in regard to media strategy?" The answer I am looking for is, "Be sure to make a video of your event." And this is what Colorado Senior Lobby has done with their Senior Day at The Capitol that happened on April 2, 2014.

Here are some details ...
I am a volunteer and one of the Board of Directors for this group. Through the tremendous work of the event committee for this event (in particular Steve Grund), we were able to get a local News personality attend the event which in turn caused the news channel to send a camera crew. The news personality was Mark Koebrich, of KUSA Channel 9NEWS Denver. Mark Koebrich is well-known in Colorado for his 9News Senior Source.
Bottom line is that the 9News Station covered our great event and the Colorado Senior Lobby organization had wonderful promotion for this great event. Here are some links:

However the next step is that Colorado Senior Lobby hired a videographer to film the event and we are planning to make a few well-crafted short videos. These items should be available in about a week and we will be making more posts about this event and how we are using video to extend the reach of the event. Stay tuned!

One last comment - 9News recently updated their website and I personally like how easy it is to navigate and the combination of video and text. Check it out - Click Here.

And from Colorado Senior Lobby to KUSA Channel 9NEWS - thank you!
