One third of Printflix was dedicated to video production, which included a studio with a green screen, video cameras, lights, sound gear, and editing and special effects workstations. The rest of the facility housed the digital printing and finishing equipment. Prinbtflix was the only company that could design and produce print and video content on demand.

Interior of hardbound 12 X 9 video book made for the Chicago Blackhawks. 50,000 books were made in several weeks prior to Christmas and sold in the Blackhawks store on Michigan Ave. in Chicago.
Making magic for Matchbox Twenty, books were sold online through Band Merch, a product marketing company to the mucic industry.
The Amazing Mob Video Book is one of the best Video in Print products ever made.
The Mob Museum video book was technically the most challenging project we ever worked on. The book features a hardbound cover and 16 pages of internal content. The interiors were brilliantly created by Matt Crist, one of our best graphics designers. Images and video content were captured by Max Ellis, who also edited all of the video b-roll into short vignettes narrated by former Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman.
This book stood out for many reasons, mainly because it displayed a new custom video on each page turn. The videos were written and storyboarded to coincide with each section of the book, mirroring the walking tour visitors receive at the museum. Both the book and the museum trace the evolution of organized crime from Prohibition to today. I engineered the book and produced all of the videos.
