Event Production Questions?
We Have Answers.
What exactly is event production?
Aside from being the thing we completely nerd out over, event production is the process of planning, coordinating and executing all the technical and logistical aspects of an event. This can include everything from securing the venue and catering to managing audio-visual equipment and lighting.
What is the role of event production?
Event producers play a critical role in ensuring that events run smoothly and achieve their objectives. They are responsible for overseeing all aspects of production, from concept to completion. Since every event has different goals, objectives, budgets, etc., event production is a lot of work. And, we love it.
How should my company start planning an event, and how does Orange Thread LIVE approach event production?

What is the difference between an event coordinator and an event producer?
Event coordinators typically focus on the logistical aspects of an event, such as registration, invitations, and speaker management. Event producers handle the technical and creative elements, such as audio-visual equipment, lighting, and projection mapping.

We have extensive experience in a wide range of events, including corporate meetings, conferences, trade shows, product launches, social events, and more.

What is the role of a production manager?
Our production managers serve as the chief “headache-removal” officers. They help do all the advance work to ensure a well-engineered system with the right gear, crew, and communication ahead of time. They don’t operate gear, per say, but they help lead the team to ensure you avoid surprises, stress, or any other headache-like symptom during your event.
How long does it take to get a quote?
No headaches, means getting a price fast. Though sometimes complex, we strive to provide a quote within 48 hours of request.
How do I know what it'll look like?
We’re glad you asked! Often our team will produce a 3D render of what your production environment will look like. This will give you assurances and confidence that what you are looking for is what you will get. See one of our past Render to Reality images.
Why is event production so expensive?
Our clients tell us on a regular basis that our superior gear and better-trained crew is often less than in-house production vendors. Even more, our price with travel often beats the preferred provider hotels and convention centers have “in-house”. Send us your details for your next event and we’d love a chance to remove pricing as your headache too!
What sort of gear do you own?
Our team is proud to carry brands such as Digico, D&B Audiotechnik, Ross, Barco, Panasonic, Martin, GrandMA, Chauvet, and more. Further, we own all the equipment required to provide state-of-the-art audio, video, and lighting for your next event.
