How We Run the Show
- We handle live show cue management, making sure every light, sound, and video cue lands right on time.
- Our team manages all backstage crew coordination, from green rooms to prop swaps, so nothing gets missed.
- We’re on the consoles, running the tech - lighting, sound, video - and fixing stuff on the fly if something goes off.
- Artists, speakers, panelists - we’re their go-to people for schedules, last-minute changes, and getting them on stage prepped and calm.
- Got a crazy product reveal or a digital wall-break? We love special effects stage reveals and custom mechanics.
