    Houston AutoBoative Show · NRG Center

    HoustonAutoBoative contentfor exhibitors.

    Houston combined its auto and boat shows, which produced something genuinely useful for an accessory or truck brand: one floor holding both halves of the Texas outdoor buyer. Cross X Agency travels to NRG Center to cover that crossover properly, because a lift kit, a tonneau, or a marine accessory reads very differently when it is filmed next to the boat it is towing.

    What to captureat NRG Center.

    Texas buys trucks, and it tows things with them. The coverage that sells here shows capability and lifestyle in the same frame instead of treating them as separate campaigns.

    Truck and accessory detail

    Lifts, bumpers, racks, tonneaus, wheels, and tow setups filmed tight, with the install quality and hardware visible.

    The tow and marine crossover

    Coverage that uses the combined floor deliberately, pairing the vehicle with the boat or trailer it is actually built to pull.

    Press day, used properly

    The Wednesday open house window used for clean walkarounds and any announcement you want on record before the public arrives.

    Product demonstrations

    Anything that moves, folds, lifts, or locks filmed in motion with hands in frame, which is the only way an accessory sells on video.

    Ride and drive coverage

    Ride and drive and experience areas covered where organizer access permits, giving you motion footage a static stand cannot produce.

    Cuts for a Texas audience

    Vertical cuts and captions pitched at the regional buyer, released across the five day run rather than after it.

    Before, during,and after the show.

    Five days is a short run, so nothing can be figured out on site. The display list, the press day window, and the demonstration timings are settled before the crew flies to Houston.

They can walk your booth, demo your products, and appear on camera in your place if you or your team are not available or would rather stay off camera, and your products show up in their feeds while the show is still open.

    Before you book.

    Who is this coverage built for?

    Aftermarket and accessory brands, custom and restoration builders, wrap, tint, and detail studios, parts and equipment vendors, and brands running an activation on the floor. We produce content for exhibitors and displays. We do not take dealership work.

    You are based in Las Vegas. How does travel work?

    Travel and lodging for the crew are quoted as a separate line in the proposal, so the coverage scope and the travel cost stay readable. Once the dates are booked we hold them, plan the shoot remotely with your team, and arrive ahead of load-in.

    How fast do we get content during the show?

    Every package includes a first deliverable within 24 to 72 hours, so content posts while the show is still open. The full library follows after the show.

    Who owns the finished files?

    You do. Finished videos and edited photos are delivered to a Google Drive under your account with no watermarks. The Convention Takeover also includes the full raw footage library.
