Resolution’s Mitch Apley Directs Video Production for Live Event with Chef Rick Bayless

April 2010

TimeOut Chicago, the city’s “What’s Happening” event guide, asked Resolution Digital Studios to handle the media production and live event needs for their Eat Out Awards Ceremony. The event took place on April 12th at the Museum of Contemporary Art, and celebrity chef, Rick Bayless was the planned guest.


Based on a script written by TimeOut, Resolution stepped in to create a comedic video piece. The video featured Bayless who was running late for his appearance at the awards ceremony.  Why?  Because he was hungry and waiting in line at his own restaurant. As he races from XOCO, his newest Chicago eatery, to the event across town, the camera follows him on foot through the streets of Chicago.


The video, directed by Resolution’s Mitch Apley, was the lead-in that introduced Rick Bayless at the Eat Out event.  The video was a great way to prime the audience with humor as they anticipated Bayless’ arrival.
