Excitement Gaining in Hotels
We are excited to announce that hotels across the U.S. are now using our Mini screen for their indoor and outdoor movie events. You can find them at the J.W. Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa in Phoenix, the Westin LaCantera Resort in San Antonio, the Pagosa Hot Springs Resort in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, and the Hyatt Waikiki in Honolulu...just to name a few! We are getting wonderful feedback from all of our customers from their successful movie events and the excitement they are finding from their guests.

Community Interest in the Mini Screen
Universities across the Nation are responding to all 3 sizes of the SuperScreen. Most recently the New Hampshire Technical College graduates of 2005 used their legacy gift donations to purchase a Junior screen for the students yet to come. We look forward to hearing of their events during this next school year!
In Colorado, the Highlands Ranch Community Association of the town of Highlands Ranch, purchased a Mini for their town film series. The Mini has been a solution for Highlands Ranch after using a pop-up screen for their previous events in past years. The Mini will serve as a much safer screen and will help them succeed in their event goal of bringing in hundreds of guests.
SuperScreen USA Expands with new 13'x16' Mini Size
January 2005, Denver, CO
Fastlane Productions announces the expansion of the SuperScreen line of inflatable outdoor movie screens with its new 13’ x 16’ Mini. “Our first year with the two models 24’x36’ Pro and 17’x26’ Junior was fantastic,” comments creator Doug Lane, “and we wanted to give the market a small and easy consumer size screen.”
“Mini is a fast and easy answer to indoor and outdoor movies and special events. Mini inflates with an internal fan in minutes and travels in a small duffle bag,” comments Lane.
“And our Mini in A Box full event kit is an exceptional value. The kit’s audio system and projector can be used for all types of events.”
