Engineered Event Production

AV Built by Developers

We engineer event experiences with the precision of a technical team and the polish of a live production crew. Here's what that looks like for your next event.

Full-Service Production

One team handles everything — sound, video, lighting, streaming, and show management. You get a single point of contact, not five vendors.

AR & VR Capture

Record and stream in augmented and virtual reality formats. Give remote attendees an experience that feels like being in the room.

Event Lighting

Stage washes, uplighting, spotlights, and custom color schemes. We design the lighting plan around your agenda, not the other way around.

Senior AV Crews

Every event is staffed with experienced technicians who have worked hundreds of shows. No day-of contractors, no learning on your dime.

Video Production

Multi-camera capture, live switching, and post-event editing. Broadcast-quality video for keynotes, panels, and recap packages.

Hybrid Events

In-room and remote audiences get the same quality experience. We manage both production environments from one control point.

Remote Panels

Bring speakers in from anywhere with broadcast-quality audio and video. Your remote panelists look and sound like they are on stage.

IMAG (Image Magnification)

Large-screen projection of your speakers so every seat in the room has a clear view. Essential for ballrooms over 200 attendees.

Corporate Video

Executive messaging, internal communications, and brand videos produced with the same rigor as your live events.

Event Management

Run-of-show coordination, speaker management, and real-time production decisions. We keep your event on schedule and on message.

Podcast Production

Record, edit, and produce podcast content on-site or in studio. Turn your conference sessions into evergreen content.

Private Event AV

Board meetings, executive retreats, donor dinners. Discreet, reliable AV that supports the conversation without dominating it.

Workshop Livestream

Stream training sessions, workshops, and breakouts to remote participants with interactive Q&A and screen sharing.

Remote Speaker Integration

Your keynote is in another city? We handle the feed, the audio sync, and the confidence monitor so they present like a pro.

Livestream with Polling

Real-time audience polling built into the stream — not a separate app. Results display live on screen for speakers and attendees.

Corporate Livestream

Town halls, all-hands meetings, and investor calls streamed to authenticated audiences with branded overlays and reliable delivery.

Event Recording

Every session captured, organized, and delivered post-event. Searchable archives, highlight reels, and speaker clips ready to share.

Gala & Fundraiser AV

Projection, theatrical lighting, walk-up music, live auction displays. We match the production value to the ticket price.
