Engineering Visual Solutions That Define the Goal
Point Source Design Group offers far more than traditional lighting design.
We're strategic partners who engineer complete visual experiences, from
early concept consultation through flawless execution. Here's how we solve
your toughest production challenges.
Six Core Services
SERVICE 1: Visual Strategy & Consulting
David works with your creative team during the concept phase—before budgets are locked and decisions made. We align visual strategy with business objectives and engineer solutions that actually work within your constraints.
Why this matters:
After 2,301 events, David knows which ideas will work and which will fail. We prevent expensive mistakes before they happen.
SERVICE 2: Technical Problem Solving
Impossible venue constraints? Broadcast requirements conflicting with live experience? After 3,500+ venues, David has solved these problems hundreds of times. You get proven solutions, not experimentation.
Why this matters:
Low ceilings? No rigging points? Terrible power? David has solved your exact constraint 50 times before. That's 17.5x more problem-solving experience than typical competitors.
SERVICE 3: Visual Experience Architecture
Complete visual environment design, coordinating lighting, video, scenic, and set design. Not disjointed elements—cohesive experiences where every detail serves the story.
Why this matters:
Most lighting designers think about light. David considers the overall visual experience and how it supports your business objectives. That's the difference between tactical execution and strategic partnership.
SERVICE 4: Broadcast & Multi-Platform Design
Multi-Industry Awards and Emmy Award recipient for automated lighting innovation. 195 broadcast/media productions, including Pan American Games, Super Bowl 50 for CNN, Verizon. Simultaneous optimization for live audiences, broadcast cameras, and streaming platforms.
Why this matters:
Broadcast lighting is a specialized skill. David has done 195 broadcast productions, including Super Bowl 50 (100M+ viewers). When your event goes live to millions, you need proven expertise
SERVICE 5: Production Orchestration
Managing vendors, coordinating crews, and ensuring all moving parts work together seamlessly. David's 40 years of relationships mean he knows who to call and how to run complex productions smoothly.
Why this matters:
Complex events involve dozens of vendors and crew. David's 40-year network means problems get solved with a phone call, not an RFP process. That's the value of institutional knowledge.
SERVICE 6: Real-Time Troubleshooting
On-site expertise when things go wrong (they always do). After 2,301 events, David already knows the solution while others are still diagnosing the issue.
Why this matters:
Every event has surprises. With 2,301 events under his belt, David has seen your exact emergency before. You're paying for instant solutions, not panicked troubleshooting.
COMPUTER AIDED DRAFTING & DESIGN (CADD)
CADD services help you pre-construct your event, ensuring an efficient and seamless process from installation to dismantling. Our designers and technicians maintain strong architectural, technical, and mechanical fundamentals to ensure accurate and useful drawings. These drawings have contributed to 2,301 successful events across 3,500+ venues worldwide.
CADD environments are more than shapes or diagrams that show where objects are placed in relation to each other in a given space. CADD outputs also provide 2D and 3D perspectives of a space, surface, or object, along with information on materials, processes, dimensions, and tolerances, all in accordance with application-specific conventions.
In addition to producing CADD drawings or "renderings" for corporate events, concerts, or staging, we also use CADD to produce computer animation for special effects in movies, videos, advertising, and presentations.
TELEVISION, SATELLITE - WEB CASTING LIGHTING DESIGN
Whether a concert, a corporate event, a stage, stadium, arena production, a television broadcast (live or recorded), a webcast, or a podcast, Point Source Design Group designers bring the corporate theme, brand, and continuity to the remote viewers. From lighting, special EFX, programming, and lighting direction needs, we handle it all.
