Prior to coming to Elation, Haney was a sales director for Screenworks/NEP, a large video production company headquartered in California. He has served as a stagehand, camera operator, touring video director/producer and live music director and worked on over 2,000 live music events over the course of his career. Recently, Haney was presented with two Parnelli Awards for his work on tours for Eric Clapton and Star Wars in Concert, and has toured with a number of well-known artists, including Jason Mraz, Barry Manilow, Kenny Chesney, Luis Miguel and Britney Spears.
"We are thrilled to welcome Mark Haney to the Elation team," said Eric Loader, director of sales for Elation Professional. "There is currently tremendous potential to make inroads into the broadcast video and touring markets, as we continue to develop more products for this market."
