Work
From the big pitch to the bigger picture, our multidisciplinary studio makes radical ideas real.
We were brought on to design the set for Diplo's 2024 Stagecoach headline show. The design followed the swamp theme set in his previous two country/edm mixtapes– Thomas Wesley Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. The show featured artists Shaboozey, Elle King, Hardy, and Guy Fieri.
Working alongside Show Director / Designer / Operator Hugo Shiboski, we brought his concept render to reality with the construction of custom modular lighting towers. Designed for life on the road, and adaptable to a range of venue layouts, these brought energy to the show each night of the Far From Here Pt. 2 tour. Lighting frames fabricated by Matt Leonardo.
When challenged to design and produce Jim-E Stack’s debut LA and NY headline live shows, we jumped at the opportunity. The team’s challenge was to use color as the only building block. Avoiding traditional animations, we focused on simple color palettes, moody/flashy back lighting, and negative space. Our work culminated in a bicoastal tour running the live production and operation of his shows. Matt Leonardo assisted on lighting operation.
Production for ABC Dialect's LA debut at our studio. Set fabricated by Matt Leonardo.
Production and Space for Baird’s first live show ever, supporting the release of his "Birdsongs Vol. II" EP. Set fabricated by Matt Leonardo.
During our time at the studio, we've produced events for the fun of production. These events have been a way for us to experiment on our terms. Set fabrication done by Matt Leonardo.
Digital design for Memmi's EP "Heartburn". Over the course of a year, we worked with the artist to develop a design language for his EP. To celebrate the release of his project, we designed an experimental lighting and sound setup at Glow in the Dirt to host a listening party.
Working alongside Unusual Demont's creative director Nicole Blue, we offered production and set design. We used 360 cameras as a tool for non conventional shot choices.
This project was our first experiment with an artist-in-residence program. Alongside Argentine lighting designer Mauro Pujia, we developed a concept installation– Mirrors.
We were approached by an up and coming film production studio out of Vancouver– Good Idea Studios. The group gave us their trust in making the website to host their portfolio. We worked with designer Lea Schwegler to make a cohesive digital design language.

What Day Is It is a 15-minute live performance film for electro-pop trio Moontower, featuring unreleased songs from their forthcoming EP. Each song's visual identity is ever-evolving, showing viewers the ambiguity of dusk and dawn, and leaving them feeling lost in time.
