Screens Producing
MODE has a deep bench with some of the best screens producers and video designers in the business. We know how to design and specify complex video systems, develop content production templates and guidelines, work with inbound agencies and clients to ensure delivery of great working media, and then bringing it all together with onsite video QC and programming oversight. We know how to implement AR/VR, mixed realities, and complex projection mapping. We’ve done it for major television shows, award shows, corporate meetings, and events.
Production Design
You’ve seen us… We have worked to create giant stadium shows, trade shows, and theatrical tours, for some of the very biggest brands and bands on earth. We know how to build to budget. We know how to best leverage the creative power of production technology. We know the right shops, the right people, and the right talents. We know how to make it move, or how to make it permanent.
Creative Direction & Executive Producing
We’ve provided Creative Direction and Executive Producing for Chevrolet, Alibaba, the American Country Music Awards, and too many others to count. We are incredibly skilled in handling demanding client communications and relationships. We have amazing tools for organizing and tracking processes and budgets. And we keep collecting awards for the creative. What could happen if you could offer that level of creative and producing to clients who are craving agility, and diversity ?

Projection mapping
The hot new thing right ? We put it on tour for the first time in 1999. We’ve mapped castles, water, trees, and truss. We’ve worked hand in hand with media server and projector manufacturers for the last 15 years to define the features that represent state of the art. And then we’ve designed systems and ART that changes the world around us.

We are equally happy to assist other producing partners to achieve very specific engagements, interactions, or effects as part of their larger projects.
