| Todd Scheel - Owner/President |
| As the owner of Exciting Events I get excited when I am able to interact with my clients. I continually strive to offer my clients the latest in technology, as well as innovative ideas to make their event spectacular. Whether I am providing music for a wedding or reving up 18, 000 fans at the Bradley Center seeing what music and special effects can do to people is great! I am continually looking for ways to put energy into everyone’s event. Whether it is lights, music or special effects, that is what truly keeps me going. |

Having the business run out of his home, Dick was closely involved with the company and started the companies accounting department. With a passion for carpentry and an eye for detail, he then proceeded to design and create the companies road gear and storage devices. He then retired in 1992 from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation as a Civil Engineer and joined our team full-time. Incorporating his engineering skills, Dick works closely with our fabricators and designs, and takes Todd's wealth of ideas from blueprints to full blown productions. |

| Julie Szyba - General Manager |
| Julie officially joined Muzic in Motion’s team in 1989. But, being Todd’s sister, both she and her family have been helping out in some way or another since day one. Julie oversees the day-to-day operations of the company and is responsible for the motivation and management of our full-time staff. After having her first child in 2000, she made the leap from full-time manager to full-time Mom. Julie has maintained her full-time responsibilities on a part-time basis. From processing contracts, to planning corporate retreats, she creates a pleasant work environment for both our customers and our employees. Be sure when she answers the phone and says, “It’s a great day at Muzic in Motion,” she means it. |

| Ed Buchner - Operations Manager |
| Back in 1990 I was just another DJ. Now look at me. I am the King of the World! Well at least all the employees think so (wink-wink). Mostly I am in charge of the day to day operation of the company (though you would never be able to tell that from my official job description). I route the trucks, schedule the employees and make sure the right equipment gets to the job. |

| Josef Leutner - Production/SFX Manager |
| Josef worked at building a career for himself at a few different places, but none of them were just right. He joined our staff in 1990. He has an eclectic background that fits his role her perfectly. Josef has been an auto body mechanic, a landscaper, a chef, an automotive mechanic, and a machinist “running machines at 6000 rpm – he says grunting proudly”. When Todd heard of Josef’s mechanical ability the time was right. So he signed on with the best team building props and maintaining equipment. Josef spends much of his time in our manufacturing department machining and engineering each and every product, to bring you a quality product he is proud of. |
