Vince

Today, I'm going to introduce you to Vince Stott. Let me give you a bit of background. Vince and Paul (also a member of the team) have been running a very successful wedding video business (http://www.abroadwayvideo.com/) for 20 years now. A couple years ago, they started thinking about expanding the business to include more corporate type videos with a concentration on website videos. That dream led them to open The Media Zoo. So, as you may have figured out by now, Vince is one of the owners of The Media Zoo. He is extremely creative and has so many great ideas both for The Media Zoo and A Broadway Video. He is always reading up on the latest business techniques, practices, and strategies.


On a more personal note....Vince is a HUGE Gator fan. One of his cats is even named after the University of Florida's quarterback! This past November, he and Crystal, another vital member of the team finally tied the knot. Crystal surprised Vince at the wedding and brought the University of Florida drum line in at the end of the ceremony. It was quite exciting!

Introduction

Hi! Joyce here, thanks for reading our blog. Right here is where I'm going to keep you updated on what's going on here at The Media Zoo as well as what's happening in all our lives. My goal is that you will get to know all of us as real people and not just a voice on the other end of the phone or a random person writing a blog.

Ok, so now you know who's writing the blog, let me tell you a little bit about myself. I'm a single mom of three kids. I had been attending BCC part time for quite a while seeking a degree in multimedia. I kept telling my program director to keep an eye out for video jobs. Well, one day, I walked into her office and she said “Joyce, I have the perfect job for you.” That job was with Vince as a video editor. I was able to work from home and still be available for my kids. My professor was right. The job was perfect! Since that day, we have grown by leaps and bounds with the result being The Media Zoo. I no longer work from home but in an office with the rest of the team and am loving every minute of it.

Speaking of the office, we've all been very busy getting ready for our first web designers meeting. We are planning to hold these networking type gatherings once a month. So, if you happen to be a web designer and you didn't make it to the first seminar, give us a call so we can put you on the invite list for the next one! You'll be able to meet the rest of the team as well as enjoy some good food and get some great information.

Stay tuned because in my next blog entry, I'll introduce you to another member of the team.
