Summer Roundup: 2016 Edition


Some say summer’s almost over, but at Four Winds Creative, the heat is on. First, let’s recap what happened since May. We flew drones in San Diego with some very special 4th graders who were learning to calculate rocket trajectories. If that wasn’t enough, that same school had some kindergarteners doing 3D architectural modeling. No foolin’! Then Four Winds traveled to the opposite corner of the US (specifically Boston), where after shooting 7 interviews, we went to Quincy Market and the Boston Aquarium. Why does going to the aquarium make you want Legal Seafood?
Our summer of travel didn’t stop there! Then it was off to Sunny Phoenix and Sunnyvale and then to the Bar B Que Mecca of Kansas City. Yum! With a little ‘south of the border action’ over the July 4th weekend, we adventured to Mexico City, where we learned how technology is changing the way teachers teach and students learn. If you didn’t know, it’s also has had a huge impact on the parents who got their first taste of technology served up by their very own kids.
On the home front, errr….well… office home front, we bid a melancholy farewell to our old office in downtown San Jose and a hearty hello to our three-times-larger new office on Bascom Avenue in San Jose. And if that wasn’t enough reason to celebrate, Eva stepped it up to full-time work with Four Winds Creative this summer too. But we didn’t stop there… In addition, to help with all the day to day madness, we hired a new full-time employee, Daphne. Read that as TWO full-time employees at the new office! Woo hoo! Which, of course, called for new business cards and a new voice mail.
What’s next? Well we took proud possession of two Mevo cameras and we’ll be doing some demos and an open house in the months to come, so stand by for more excitement as we head into the fall.
