PRO EM at Rosen Shingle Creek: showing the scale of an event installation
Updated: Oct 19
Showing the installation in its setting
For PRO EM National at Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando, we created aerial video and photography of an event installation. The work shows the structure in relation to the resort, then moves closer to the exterior and the space inside. Each view helps explain a different part of the finished setup.
An installation can be difficult to describe through detail photographs alone. A close view may show the finish but leave out the size. An aerial can show the footprint without revealing the experience inside. Bringing those views together gives the project a more complete visual record and helps someone understand it without having been there.
A large meetings property in Orlando
Rosen Shingle Creek is a major meetings and events property near the Orange County Convention Center. The resort lists 524,000 square feet of dedicated meeting and event facilities. That scale makes the setting relevant: the installation is part of a much larger property, and a wider view helps show where it sits.
PRO EM's work includes tents, structures and event services. Our assignment was to photograph and film the installation, giving the company views of the completed environment. The resort and structure provide the subject; our contribution is the visual record of their relationship, from the overall site to the details visible inside.
From the aerial view to the interior
The photographs begin with a wide view of the structure at the resort. The front angle makes its shape and exterior easier to read. Inside, an elevated view shows the arrangement of the space, while the banquet photograph brings the tables and finished setting into focus.
A broad aerial shows the installation’s footprint. The exterior views make its shape clear, while the interior photographs reveal the arrangement and finish of the space. The film adds movement through the setting. Having both gives PRO EM several ways to explain the same installation, from an overall introduction to a closer look at the finished environment.
Useful photographs for the next conversation
For an event supplier or venue team, completed-project imagery can help explain work that is difficult to put into a short description. A clear photograph lets a prospective client look at the scale, arrangement and finish for themselves. A varied collection provides more to work with than one overall view repeated in different crops.
When we discuss an assignment like this, we want to understand what the images need to show and who will use them. That could be a company presenting its installation work, a venue explaining its spaces or a production partner documenting a finished setup. We can then talk through the appropriate mix of video, photography and aerial coverage for the project.
