Marina Fries

I build and update Shoflo rundowns for the Calgary Stampede Rodeo and Evening Show/Chuckwagons alongside the Production Lead. I coordinate scripts, commercials, sponsor integrations, fan engagement activations, external vendor graphics, and day-specific production requirements. I track and organize approved sponsor scripts, taglines, commercials, logo animations, ribbon graphics, title/window graphics, event animations, and other live broadcast deliverables while communicating with sponsor account managers, external vendors, and the Production Lead to ensure assets are accurate and ready for execution.
