What we do

Live shows

Most of our work is played live, by hand, in the moment — the industry calls it busking. Nothing is on autopilot, so the beams react to the room as it happens.

Timecoded shows

When a show needs to land identically every time, we lock it to your music second by second, so every burst, sweep, and color change hits on the beat.

Logos and custom imagery

Your company logo across a building. A monogram on the wall at a reception. Text and animation on stage backdrops, walls, and open air.

Operator for hire

For venues and production companies with lasers already in house that need a certified hand on the console for the night.

Beam work · Sound on

Stage lighting for bands and DJs

If the house rig is two washes and whatever the venue tech has time to point at you, we bring our own and run it live for your set.

What shows up

Eleven powered fixtures, eight battery-powered uplights, and a hazer. Four of the eleven move. Nearly every fixture strobes, so when a track drops the whole rig hits at once instead of one panel doing the work. The uplights run off batteries and need no cable, for rooms with nowhere to hide power. Haze is what makes beams visible in the air — it's the difference between lit and lightshow. Sized to the room, loaded in before doors, struck the same night.

Pixel mapping

Most of the rig is pixel-mappable, meaning each fixture is a grid of individually controlled cells rather than one lamp. Patterns, chases, and text can run across the whole rig as a single surface. It's the look you've seen behind bigger touring acts, at a size that fits a club stage.

Run live, not left on

Someone is on the console for your whole set, changing looks with the music instead of leaving one scene running all night. Send us your tracks in advance and we'll build to them.

Works with what's already there

We can add to the house rig, take it over for the night, or bring everything ourselves. Small rooms without a proper lighting position are the normal case, not the exception.

Rentals

Need the gear but not the operator? The lighting package rents on its own, as single fixtures or the whole rig — moving lights, washes, strobes, uplights and hazer. Pick it up, or we deliver and set it up and you run it yourself.

Lasers are the exception: they go out with an operator rather than on their own. Our federal variance covers shows we run and doesn't transfer to a renter, and anyone putting Class 3B or 4 lasers in front of an audience needs their own. If you've been quoted a bare laser rental by someone else, that's worth asking about.

Lasers and lighting go out together or separately. Bands and DJs playing regular rooms usually start with lighting and add lasers for the bigger dates.

Why the license matters

Running professional-power lasers in front of an audience in the United States requires a federal variance and a certified safety officer. We hold both, in our own name, for every show we run. If someone quotes you a laser show without them, you are the one holding the liability.

One thing we don't do, on purpose: we never aim beams into a crowd. Effects stay overhead and land on a surface. Your guests get the sky above them and nothing pointed at them.

Tell us about your event

We're based in New Orleans and cover the Gulf Coast. For work further out we bring in additional equipment and technicians as the production calls for it, so distance is a budget conversation rather than a dead end.

Send the date, the venue, and roughly what you're picturing. We'll come back with what's possible and what it costs.
