Using LED Displays for Education and Revenue with Clint Burges of Nevco
Let me paint a mental image: summery Friday night, crowd cheering, stands full of fans, the sound of body-to-body impact. You probably guessed it by now; we're talking high school football, a staple event in any sports-centric community. Maybe what doesn't immediately come to mind is a multi-million dollar LED display showcasing highlights in slow-motion and illuminating the crowd with sponsors and promotions. This professional sports experience on a high school level is a reality now, and with this high quality technology comes amazing benefits and growing pains.
On this episode of the Pro AV podcast, we're joined by Clint Burges, Senior Event Production and Onsite-Tech Manager for Nevco. After 11 years at Lamar University in Beaumont, TX, Burges knows the impact high school and collegiate football can have on an institution, both culturally and financially. "Curriculum directors are starting to realize there’s a lot of mitigating factors here that we can benefit a lot of areas, not just the football coach and not just the AD. We can benefit so much more within the community with it," Burges said.
He comes on the podcast to break down the creative ways LED stadium displays are bringing communities closer together, bringing revenue to schools, giving students opportunities for CTE, and some of the difficulties in training local users on the full capacities of a rich, versatile LED screen. "Lot of these people, they don't get to go to a Cowboys game or Spurs game or Pelicans game and see what's out there. So they have to rely on us and they had to rely a little bit on what’s out in the real market to say 'Hey, here are some things we want to do, you know, here's what we want to do,' and that's where we come in to kind of assist that to say here's how you do it," Burges said. "Once that's over with, you know, it’s up to you guys to sit down and actually repeat that process and get savvy on it."
