The program runs on time and everyone hears it

On the ground

This work in Lead

Corporate work in Lead is retreats and lodge gatherings, groups who came up here for the setting rather than the meeting rooms. The opera house handles a program beautifully and the ski lodge spaces suit a more relaxed day. Both were built for something other than conferences, so we confirm what your room can actually support early instead of assuming a house system covers what your program needs.

Conditions in Lead

Lead is steep, high, and old, and all three shape your day. Downtown buildings have narrow doorways and stairs designed for a different century, so we confirm the load in path ahead of the date rather than discovering it with a cart in our hands and your guests arriving. At 5,300 feet the evenings get cold even in July, which is genuinely worth knowing when you are deciding how long to keep people outside. Winter dates work here because of the ski traffic, as long as the schedule has snow built into it rather than hoped away.

What is included

What you get

Banquets, award nights, conferences, and holiday parties. We run the audio, the playback, and the program cues off your run of show, with a tech at the board for the whole event instead of a system left running unattended.

  • Podium and lectern audio with a hardwired backup microphone
  • Wireless handhelds and lavaliers for presenters and award recipients
  • Playback for video, sizzle reels, and walk in music
  • Laptop and HDMI patch into house or rented projection
  • Background music through dinner and networking, at a level that allows conversation
  • Program cues run from your printed run of show
  • Award and auction support, including a dedicated microphone for the auctioneer
  • A dance floor DJ after the program when the night calls for one
  • A technician at the board for the entire event
  • Load in, setup, and strike scheduled around the venue's requirements

How we work

Our approach

01

We work from your run of show

Corporate events live or die on the program. Send us the run of show and we build the audio and playback plan around it: who is speaking when, which video plays where, when the lights need to come down, and where the gaps are that music has to cover. If you do not have one yet, we will help you build it.

02

We plan for the microphone getting handed around

Award nights mean a microphone moving between people who have never held one. We set gain for that, keep a hardwired podium microphone live as a backup, and put a second wireless in the room so a dead battery is an inconvenience instead of a stoppage. Somebody on our crew is watching the handoffs all night.

03

We staff the board the whole time

Set it and leave it works until a presenter walks away from the podium or a video comes in twelve decibels hot. We keep a technician at the board from the first announcement to the last, because the whole point of hiring production is that somebody is paying attention when something changes.
