In concert with the client, it is important to develop a unified strategy with purpose. Together we address the business goals, variables associated with location, and an executable plan that seeks to engage the audience. Striking the perfect balance between these elements we have a path towards a successfully delivered product.

Now that we have a strategic plan we can move on to the creative process of generating, developing, and communicating captivating ideas for the execution of the show. In concert with the client, we iterate the concept until we arrive at an agreed upon product.

We’ve nailed the concept and it works with our strategic goals, now we must develop the cornerstones that the production will be built upon. We want to amaze people, drive them to this show, create something that is a must-see attraction. During this phase we will being to breathe life into the experience refining the big moments, and key factors that will define the production.

An all-important step towards actualizing the ideas, schematic design is where the concepts begin to be fully fleshed out in scaled drawings. All the elements needed to create a show are put into play, and the various disciplines begin to coordinate to address any necessary adjustments. From here we can begin to properly budget.

During this phase we can get proper costs the show. All the elements from talent, sets, audio, lighting, and media are accounted for. Any final adjustments needed prior to the start of production are addressed at this point.

With the knowledge gained from the previous phase we can now provide the final documentation needed to build the show. These design packages will provide detailed design drawings and technical information along with their costs.

The design packages have now been sent to various vendors and fabricators; they will begin to turn around build documents of their own. We will review and guide the creation of these documents to ensure the creative intent is sustained during this phase.

To make sure the design intent and finish quality meet the highest standards we supervise and provide direction until all components are ready for purchase and or delivery. This usually involves multiple visits, on-site or in-studio, by art and technical directors to maintain a consistency throughout the production process. If performing talent is needed the casting process begins here and that information is shared with the costumers.

Continuing to ensure the creative intent is achieved on-site; our team of technical and art directors will supervise the installation of technical systems and show sets; testing show controls and integrating the technical elements into the scenic seamlessly. Live performing talent will generally be fitted for costumes at this point so that final adjustments can be made prior to the rehearsal phase.

In this phase commissioning of all show systems takes place to ensure they are working as creatively intended. Programming commences and our team is there to train and certify our operating partners on how to use the systems properly.

In concert with the programing & training phase rehearsals generally begins for the live performance cast. Separate performer rehearsals eventually combine with technical rehearsals that lead to full dress rehearsals days before the premier. Our team will provide the show directors, stage management, stunt coordinators, choreographers, and music directors as needed. Operating partners will shadow these roles to train and be certified to operate the show.

With all certifications complete we are ready to hand over the keys to the show or run it for you if needed. If refinements of the show are needed now that the show is open to the public, we will be there to support and adjust any elements necessary to meet our strategic goals.

Time marches on, and while one of the goals of any successful production should include a sense of timelessness, we are here to help make sure your show stays relevant and current to audiences. Updates to technology, show systems, media content, scripts, and stage direction can help freshen any experience.
