Going big time

Chris Curtis ’83 and Keller-based GoVision go big with new large-format event promotion technology.

Chris Curtis ’83 and his business are on the move — literally. Last fall, Curtis and Keller-based GoVison introduced a new large-format event promotion technology in the form of a custom-built truck with a jumbo television screen that plays videos and advertisements. He calls it Go Big 1.

The point is simple. Curtis and his crew drive the truck around an event as a sort of high-tech billboard on wheels. It is equipped with a 16-by-9-foot screen, which also can be removed from the truck and displayed indoors.

There’s hardly been a major event in the Metroplex without it since. Go Big 1’s first gig was at the TCU-Southern Miss football game. Other venues that tested out GoVision’s technology have been the Dallas Cowboys kickoff luncheon, the United Way September 11 Commemorative Event in Sundance Square, Billy Graham’s Metroplex Mission and Governor Perry’s inauguration in Austin. In the spring, it’ll make an appearance at the Texas Motor Speedway.

And GoVision is just getting rolling. Curtis is going even bigger: Go Big 2 is currently under construction, and he plans to expand the company to other cities. “We want to be a national company with a local focus in each market, so that our clients can use this equipment at an affordable rental price,” he says.
