Stage Lighting
- The Day before the Show
On Friday, after we set all the stage lighting equipment up, it looked like this….
But on Saturday Night, this is what the audience saw. The sound was great and the lighting was spectacular. 
Design is the Genesis of any show. Programming implements the design and turns it into art.

As much as we love sound, we have to admit that stage lighting really makes the show. AV Vegas provides the rigging, trussing, conventional PARs, moving lights, stage effects and now the new LED lighting technologies to accent the look of any size stage.
We are fortunate to have Eric Chu as our full time lighting designer and lighting department head. Eric just returned from China where he worked for Cirque du Solile. His department lights the stage or the event with creative placement of fixtures and effects.
Unlike some Vegas event planners, who subrent everything for the event, we own our own equipment. That way we have control of the end product and the end costs, making AV Vegas Productions a great value. Many production companies hire third party labor companies to implement their shows, but AV Vegas has full time salaried employees with benefits who “own” their departments and know their gear and treat it like their own. This makes a huge difference in the performance of the company on show day. Our employees have a stake in the outcome of each event.
We installed our Tomcat climbing truss stage at the Orleans Hotel in Las Vegas for their pool party.
