Pandemic Survey Closes Friday

The Julius Partners survey of our industry will close Friday. So far, 249 participants are tipping a 50% downturn in the live production industry.

A Stream From Two Cities

By Jason Allen

One of the surprising things about the pandemic crisis is how quickly all the webinars and video conferences got boring, repetitive, and annoying.
