*Stage size and height
*Stage construction
*Stage safety

LIGHTING:
Lights are one of the most critically important elements in creating an aura, a “look” to your special event. They come in so many sizes, shapes and colors. Some are programmable and intelligent, some are static, there are chrome ones and black ones, some are used to project a far distance and some are used close-up, to wash a stage with color.
They can create ever-changing designs for the dance floor. They can even project patterns for the walls. This is a new era in effects lighting that must not be discounted when designing your special event.
There are so many decisions to make when it comes to lighting, and this is where we can help. Because of our expertise and experience in custom-created lighting, we can introduce you to specialty lighting companies that will advise and consult with you in the planning of your special event to create an overwhelming presence at just the right price.
LASERS:
Lasers can add a spectacular visual effect to your corporate production, special event, film presentation, convention booth or product launch. Lasers are fascinating, exciting and create fervor of excitement.
Their special effects qualities can take your event to another dimension: one rarely experienced. These pencil thin multi colored laser beams are capable of projecting onto screens, walls, buildings or even clouds. Their job, get your message across to the audience.
They are used in nightclubs, live concerts and corporate theatre. They can create logos, animate your message, create abstract imagery, word messaging, send beams from one area to another and create laser tunnels or cones for your guests to walk into or out of.
