Harrod, Clem: - Clem Harrod serves as the owner and Chief Projection Officer of CLEMCO (www.clemco.net) which he established in April of 2016. Clem began studying the art of Television and Event Production in middle school in the early 1990s. After graduating high school, he began working towards his Bachelor of Science in Media Production at Florida State University and was an active member in the College of Communication's professional production group known as Seminole Productions. It was there he learned three key skills: the art of storytelling and seeing things for more than what they appear to be on the surface, the ability to anticipate and predict outcomes through shooting sporting events, and how to stay focused and attentive while working in energetic and entertaining environments.Upon his graduation from Florida State in 2001, Clem began an internship with the Orlando Magic. There, he established himself as a very talented Sports Videographer and continued shooting NBA, MLB, NHL, NFL, and various other NCAA events for fifteen years. Through his contacts in the broadcast industry, Clem was introduced to, and simultaneously ran a career in, Corporate Event Production. Here, he began as a Stagehand and, through his strong work ethic and friendly personality, quickly worked his way up the ranks to become a very skilled Video Projectionist. With a new career focus, Clem decided to retire from the sports broadcast sector of the industry and devote his time to teaching and growing his own business. Now, CLEMCO.AV partners with many well- known production companies and their Fortune 500 clients to produce events for audiences of up to 15,000 attendees.After leaving sports, Clem's desire was to understand how to best manage the personal and professional side of the Freelance/Independent Contractor lifestyle. Enlisting the help of various service providers, Clem created a platform of communication and networking that offers a solution that didn't exist when he started his career. With the newly found sense of balance and work life integration, Clem is now able to spend quality time with his family and educate others on the philosophy known as Projection 101.
