Century III Teleproductions created video history for Smithsonian’s first permanent exhibition outside of Washington, D.C. – Rock N Soul Museum in Memphis, Tennessee.
When the Smithsonian Institution needed to visually capture the tempo of a vivid and charismatic period in American music history, they enlisted the talents of producer David Lawrence and the crew at Florida’s Universal Studios. What results from the joint effort is a video presentation as eclectic and dynamic as the musicians being honored at the in Memphis, Tennessee — the first permanent Smithsonian exhibition outside of Washington, D.C.
