Quick Work
Yesterday we unveiled the official convention podium and released a final behind-the-scenes, time lapse video of the transformation of the Xcel Energy Center in preparation for the Republican Party's nomination of Senator John McCain. This final video features the complete transformation of the Xcel Energy Center and is a compilation of all time lapse segments previously released.

Today’s unveiling of the official convention podium is the culmination of over 18 months of planning and an impressive transformation that began in late July. More than 500 workers diligently transformed what was once an ice hockey rink into what will be the setting for the 2008 Republican National Convention.
