The Jacksonville Beach Museum wanted to create a pre-show in a simulated beach house from the 50's. The ShowTech system started the program automatically and then pre-started the projectors in the museum so they would be on when the video was finished. This avoided having the expensive projection bulb burn when no one was in the museum.
Throughout the museum giant video postcards were displayed, representing different areas and eras of the Jacksonville Beach Area.
The larger than life postcards set the stage for a great museum adventure.
For the100th Anniversary of The Florida State Fair, ShowTech and an interactive production company, Silver Image Interactive, Inc., designed and produced a sixty-foot, six screen synchronized video production that simulated the feeling of being on a carousel. That is Cloyd suspended in the air above the screens, hanging the projector mounts for the six projectors.
"ShowTech did a fantastic job with the synchronization of the six DVD video sources and helped us create an enchanting effect" remarks David Rosenblatt, President of Silver Image Interactive, Inc.
Thousands of people viewed the six-screen videocarousel and the surrounding artifacts representative of the last hundred years.
The Sisters of St. Joseph have a museum in St. Augusitne, Florida, call O'Reilly House and Museum. One of the exhibits, located in the attic where the sisters in the 1800s lived, has a talking manekin, dressed in the wool habits of the sisters from that era. Digital audio is triggered as visitors climb the stairs and the animatronic nun carries on a discussion with another sister.
Is it folklore or history? The St. Petersburg Museum of History offered unique stories that have become the staple of ghost storytellers in the St. Petersburg area. ShowTech, in collaboration with Silver Image Interactive, Inc., built the 1000 square foot exhibit and thrilled visitors, seeking a little fun and folklore.
From the tragic destiny of motorists driving across the Skyway Bridge to the beautiful, romantic love story of a wealthy businessman and hotel entrepreneur, stories exist in St. Petersburg, unlike any other place.
ShowTech's use of technology ranged from a "Pepper's Ghost" circa 1848 to interactive touch screens and digital video players.
The New Smyrna Museum of History had a grand opening on November 11, 2006. The museum was completely redesigned from the ground up with a new exhibit on the Andrew Turnbull Settlement. Silver Image Interactive, Inc. was responsible for all of the media associated with the new exhibit and they called upon ShowTech to create custom systems such as the one above that controls an animated map in synchronization with a DVD Video.
Cloyd also developed custom interfaces to start both digital video players and DVD players.
