How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying

A technically ambitious mainstage design built around eight Ayrton Rivale Profiles, a new third electric, and three flown LED wall segments.

Davis designed and programmed the lighting on an ETC Eos multi-console system. He also engineered and implemented the rigging for three flown LED wall segments, coordinating their placement with Kyle Helberg’s video design.

A compact black-box system expanded with moving profiles, saturated color, and precise framing to create the scale of a full musical.

Working with a compact conventional system augmented by Ayrton Rivale Profiles and CHAUVET COLORado Solo 3 fixtures, Davis drafted the plot and paperwork, programmed on an ETC Ion Xe 20, and led the electrics work.

A first dedicated programming engagement, adapting a clean show file when four moving lights joined the rig one day before technical rehearsals.

Programming for lighting designer Christina Giannelli, Davis incorporated four late-added Elation Picasso fixtures while preserving references, tracking, and a clean ETC Ion Xe 20 show file throughout a demanding tech process.
