Flint Materials: Flint Team visits NYC!
Off to New York City…
Flint Virtual Showroom programmers Caleb Talmage and Sarah Hollifield, along with Flint designer Steven Arnold and U.S. operations personnel Dr. Myungjae Kwak and Shaswat Jhunjhunwala, recently took a Flint-sponsored weekend trip to NYC for some inspiration, team-building and site-seeing.
With accommodations on 7th Avenue, between Times Square and Central Park, we were thrown right in the thick of it. We had a blast walking the streets around Times Square and Broadway that first night, through the lighted marquees and digital billboards, taking in the urban bustle. While most of us were pretty impressed with all the action, our Indian friend Shas kept wondering where all the people were… he was expecting a “big” city. ( :
We saw the famous Carnegie Hall, the renowned Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and the historic Central Park (street performers and all)… but the highlight was attending the New York City Drone Film Festival. We got to hear professional aerial cinematographers discuss their trade and got to see some pretty cool screenings filmed with drones. The drone footage was pretty awesome, showing amazing and dramatic “fly-thoughs”, capturing environments in ways impossible or unfeasible for helicopters or ground rigs. Absolutely breathtaking beautiful footage.
