Three steps from idea to show. Each one feeds the next, and you can start at any of them.

01Show directionVision, budget and plan, locked early. 02Lighting designSee the show in 3D before load-in. 03Lighting programmingEvery cue locked to your music.

Show direction

A show director sits between your creative director and production manager. We connect the creative vision to the budget, schedule and vendors, so the plan is approved early and nothing gets lost on the way to the stage.

For new and lean teams, tours in build-out, and established acts.

What you get
  • AssessWe discuss the intent of the show with you.
  • PlanWe weigh the constraints: rooms, schedule, crew, budget, and logistics.
  • ProposeYou get one clear solution to approve.

Lighting programming

Send us your audio and creative notes. We pre-program the show to the music, then a programmer attends rehearsals so you're show-ready. Our standardized showfile and team workflow build an arena-level show in under half the time of a single programmer.

grandMA2 and grandMA3 shows synced to Ableton, Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase or Pioneer CDJs.

grandMA3 timecode track for one song, with every cue placed against the music
How we build it
Pass 1

Initialize

We build the showfile, process your music, and write the lighting synopsis: the creative outline of the whole set.

Pass 2

Stamp

Musicians on our team mark every section, hit and accent in each song as a lighting sequence.

Pass 3

Program

Programmers build the looks for each song to match the creative direction of the show.
