About Dana Jelter - AVIXA
As AVIXA's manager of editorial content, I bring to the role fifteen years of marketing experience and ten working predominantly in editorial and video content. I've spent many years in the entertainment industry working for Nickelodeon, Lucasfilm, Disney, and even a small theater in the heart of Florence, Italy. I love great stories and finding the right way to tell them. I am also a stop-motion animation aficionado who makes puppets and writes books. And if you have a food-related AV story, I'd love to hear it!

Call for AV writer and/or editor
Hi, Advocates!
I'm searching for a skilled writer and/or editor to help me with creating some in-depth AV content for AVIXA.org. I'd really like to find someone who has editorial experience, and previous SEO writing would be ideal. I'm mainly looking for someone who can either write high-quality technical content, or if you're more of an editor, help me fact check and collect ideas for new articles. This would be a paid contract position.
Please reach out to me directly if you or anyone you know would be interested (djelter@avixa.org)
Thanks!
Dana

Going to start making Filipino sauces with ChatGPT's help, loved the personal experiment here! (RIP Ozzy btw)
Yes! More homemade sauces in general. So easy to make.
Just so you know, backups were in place for Mariah Carey's Times Square performance. In addition to her in-ear monitors, monitor wedges were spread across the stage, featuring similar mixes to those in her ears. Her inability to perform was not due to technical difficulties, but more to her refusal to roll with the realities of the situation and to adapt. I understand that it may not be ideal, but she locked up rather than attempting to put on a good show for her fans.
Many artists have continued to perform, trying to maintain the good energy, even when far more substantial failings than an in-ear monitor mix issue occurred.
Yes, you're right to point this out. One of the main points Troy stressed in his presentation was encouraging talent to make sure they run through the rehearsal and are familiar with the backups when things go wrong. Sadly, Mariah couldn't hold it together. Thanks @Joseph Foley !
I grew up in Bangkok as a child and it's great to see advancements in AV in the country!
That's so cool! I would really love to visit. Not only is it beautiful, but the food... 🤤
Man, wish I could be there!
Same! But so happy to see our Xchange Advocates represented here! 👏🏻
Yet another reason to love Epcot, I gotta add this to my list next time!
Definitely! I hear it requires setting up alerts to get a reservation, it's super tough! But Epcot is always fun regardless. :)
Here are my top 5:
5. J.J.'s "wardrobe malfunction" during the S.B. halftime show
4. When a certain billionaire smashed the window of his new electric truck with a ball bearing
3. That time a rapper did an "Unplugged" broadcast with deodorant chunks in his armpits
2. M.J.'s hair catching fire while filming a soda commercial
And coming in first place, drumroll please
1. The press conference at Four Seasons Total Landscaping

@Paul Konikowski, CTS-D, CISSP AMAZING list, bravo! 😅
Live event mishaps are never easy and can be super frustrating in the moment, but they’re some of the most important learning opportunities. It's tough when it happens, but these experiences help us reflect, adapt, and ultimately improve. They play a crucial role in our growth, both as professionals and as a team.
@Summer Campagna absolutely! You also gain new perspective once you have to go through a mishap yourself. You'll still cringe when the power goes off at the Super Bowl, but you have so much respect for everyone hustling behind the scenes to get things up and running. It takes some resilient people to work in live events, for sure!
I’m very excited to be attending my first InfoComm this year! I’ll definitely be at the AV Marketers Meetup to connect with the AVIXA AV Marketers Room community and network with other marketing pros in the AV space. And of course, I’m looking forward to the Cocktails and Connections happy hours, a great way to relax and connect in a more casual setting.
Awesome! See you there :)
