2x event highlight videos and 1x overall highlights for Blueprint Event Company. Produced, filmed and edited onsite by Dreaming Fish Productions in Detroit, Michigan.
The client and the brief
After working with Blueprint Event Company on last year’s European ‘Lubricant Expo and Bearing Show’, in Düsseldorf, we were excited to collaborate with them on the North America edition. Held in Detroit, Michigan, the event was over 3 days (March 18-20th) with the required deliverables of a 2x day highlights and 1x overall event highlights (on day 3), to be edited and delivered onsite. After a few calls with the Blueprint team, our Producer, Lucy, got started on planning the shoot days. It was super important that we captured everything over the busy 3 day expo!
Tuesday (Day 1) highlights
On Day 1, thousands of visitors from the marine, automotive, and energy industries filled the event. As well as filming event b-roll, we also carried out interviews with a range of different exhibitors and speakers. Day 1 was a huge success and everyone was super excited and friendly. Check out the highlights and a few BTS photos below:
Wednesday (Day 2) highlights
Day 2 of the event brought a similar buzz, with even more speakers, talks, demos and networking opportunities. Maria Sole Signorni from Petronas Lubricants International loved the expo, saying: “My expectations have been more that met over the course of the show. It’s nice to see the industry come together and not to speak about today but looking at tomorrow and how this industry can collaborate to find new solutions. This year has been a success and I am looking forward to coming next year!”
That’s a wrap (with a burger and a side of fries!)
As always, a massive thank you to the Blueprint team for having us along for the ride. We love working with you all and we hope to see you at the Dusseldorf expo, later in the year. Interested in attending the event yourself? Head over to Blueprint’s website for more information.

The production timeline can vary depending on factors like event length and required deliverables, but, we aim to typically deliver a first edit within 1-2 weeks, depending on video length, complexity, and feedback. If you have a tight deadline, we can make it work, even delivering an edit on the day of the event, as we’ve done for Blueprint and UNLEASH World.
