Production Design and Technical Planning for Complete Experiences

Technical Theatre Design

We provide complete lighting plots with ground plans marked with instrument placement, sightlines, rigging points, and electrical feeds drawn to scale and theatre specifications. Our team brought lighting design to the 2020 Excellence in Lighting Award.

We deliver audio system design with speaker placement maps, impedance calculations, and equipment specifications tailored to your venue size, acoustic properties, and performance needs. Speaker placement and coverage includes sight-line diagrams showing front-of-house, stage monitors and surround channels.

We create ground plans in order to scale layouts showing scenic elements, actor flow, sightlines from all house areas and masking positions drawn in CAD or theatre standard software. Technical drawings include section views, construction details, and assembly notes for each scene.

Video and Multimedia Production Design

Video work succeeds or fails in planning. We create the roadmaps that turn creative concepts into shootable, logistically sound production days. We develop shot lists showing scene-by-scene breakdown of every shot (wide, medium, close, movement type), matched to script, locations and time of day.

Raw footage becomes finished content through deliberate editing, grading, and effects integration. We design that workflow and execute it. We design editing workflow in Adobe Premiere or DaVinci Resolve, project setup with bins organized by scene, theme, or element type.

Live events reach multiple audiences in real time. We design systems that manage multi-camera switching, platform delivery, and hybrid audience experience simultaneously. We provide multi-camera switching operation (remote or on-site) with camera layouts, shot lists and graphics timed to live action.

Presentation and Event Design

Presentations are experienced visually first. We create decks that land ideas, support speakers, and feel considered, not like a template with placeholder text. We design custom Keynote and PowerPoint decks and content purpose with every slide intentional.

Conferences happen across multiple rooms, multiple days, with different speakers and content types. We design the technical systems that make that complexity invisible to attendees. We provide main stage AV design with projection specifications (resolution, brightness for ambient light), screen positioning and graphics layer integration.

Design Built for Real Conditions

Each design fits your space, tools, and timeline with accuracy and care. Every detail reflects real conditions, not theory, so your team achieves creative goals without technical setbacks.

Venue Aware Specifications

Design begins with your venue. Every plot, cue, and setup fits your exact space.

Operator Friendly Documentation

Notes match your crew’s language, ensuring cues, workflows and plans run smoothly.

Budget Realistic Solutions

Designs respect budgets. We adapt materials and methods to what your venue owns.

Handover That Works

Files stay organized. Your team receives full support and clarity through opening night.

FAQs

Lighting plots typically arrive in CAD or theatre-standard drafting software (AutoCAD, LightRight, or PDF). Scenic documents include CAD drawings plus construction details in readable format. All files are organized by project phase and cross-referenced so any team member can find what they need.

Yes. Design iterations are built into the process. If a venue changes, budget shifts, or artistic direction pivots, we revise documentation to match. Changes are tracked clearly so no one accidentally uses outdated plots.

Absolutely. Outdoor lighting and sound systems need different approaches than black-box theatres. We scout the space, account for weather, ambient light, and acoustics, then spec systems that work in those conditions.

Timelines depend on scope and complexity. A single lighting plot takes 2 to 3 weeks. A full tech package (lighting, sound, scenic) for a mid-scale production takes 4 to 8 weeks. Video production planning can range from 2 weeks (simple shoot) to 6 to 8 weeks (multi-location, commercial-grade content).

Changes happen. We build revision rounds into the process and document change orders clearly. Last-minute pivots are possible but require compressed timelines, so we recommend flagging potential changes early.
