Visual Design
Modern live events demand jaw-dropping visual productions, with shows competing for bigger and bigger productions with vast lighting rigs, effects packages, exotic staging, and video panels in every other remaining space. This presents a challenge for artists and promoters that want an impressive and unique show within their budget. Putting in place a strong, multi-disciplinary design team that can create that necessary impact with a unique design is therefore more important than ever.
We have experience working on all types of show, from music to corporate, theatre to architainment, with designers working in all fields of visual design, most being multi-disciplinary. With our unique position of being able to supply the usual design specialities along with in-house special project engineering, we can make your show truly memorable and distinct.
In addition to providing a partial service, where one or more designers from us work under a designer from the production, we offer a full design service. Here you will have a lead named production designer that will set the process in motion - contacting the client regularly to discuss design ideas, while managing and directing the design team. They will be available to attend rehearsals, and for meetings with the artist, director, PM or promoter. We will produce iterative draft renderings and can discuss these ideas and other options throughout the process.
If you are a designer working on a show, we can offer our "silent associate" service. Here you are the designer, but we can deal with the boring or legwork parts of your job. We can produce plans and drawings, renderings, construction plans, and collate information from different departments - along with anything you can think of within our covered specialities. This also enables you to make use of our pre-release and internal design tools (eg renderings using real spectral data). This service also applies to production design as a whole, with services such as running "Virtual Technical Rehearsals" with 3D graphics in a visualiser.
