One of my favorite events we produce each year is the William Morris Agency holiday open house. William Morris is one of the largest and oldest talent agencies in the world, with clients who are among some of the most prominent names in the entertainment world. This year we turned the parking deck of the agency's Nashville headquarters into a silver, blue and white "club" environment where more than 450 artists, managers, agents, and music industry titans came together for an evening of holiday cheer. Here are some shots of the room...and yes, it is a parking deck! We completely enclosed the sides of the parking garage and heated, decorated, and carpeted the interior. The folks at William Morris said it was the best event we'd produced so far! Thanks to the GMC staff who worked such long hours in the freezing December air to set up the event! And, we were doing the Nissan car show as the same time (see pictures below)! A special thanks to Chris Lyle and his team for all the extra effort, as well as Jim Sheridan and Brandon Thomas who worked hard to make sure everything was perfect. All of you guys are awesome! Also, a heartfelt thanks to Paul Moore and Sue Ann Cordell, our primary contacts at the WIlliam Morris Agency.



One of the highlights of the party was the sushi bar that featured twin 250 gallon aquariums filled with freshwater tropical fish. Throughout the evening, a chef prepared fresh sushi on a cutting board atop the tanks. Our team of artists created a mock up of the William Morris logo that looked like it had been carved from coral. It was very cool! A large display of fresh "Fruits d' Mer" complimented the sushi.


A popular hangout at the party was this lounge area.
