Photo: City tourism spot looks down on Marina City
September 8, 2011 – Marina City shows up in three promotional videos, spotted on YouTube recently, for Chicago Convention & Tourism Bureau. It is in the first frame of one video made two years ago. The most recent, Chicago Flipbook, has been viewed more than 7600 times since it was uploaded to YouTube last November. This frame from Chicago Flipbook shows Marina City from directly over the State Street Bridge. It might go by too quickly to notice the wooden scaffolding that covered most of the plaza last year during a concrete restoration project that lasted from mid-March to late August. The video was created by Downtown Partners Chicago, the same advertising agency that to promote Chicago as a dining destination, depicted Marina City as two towers of saucers topped with cups for a campaign in 2008. There will be more videos by the end of the year, according to Meghan Risch, director of communications for Chicago Convention & Tourism Bureau. Watch the videos… |
