Production Automation
Custom automation that eliminates manual tasks, reduces human error, and creates infinitely repeatable production workflows.
The Problem
- ×Manual show file updates across multiple systems
- ×Inconsistent execution between shows and operators
- ×Hours lost to repetitive configuration tasks
- ×No version control or audit trail
- ×Human error in high-pressure live environments
Our Solution
- ✓Centralized show data with automatic propagation
- ✓Deterministic cue execution every single time
- ✓One-click deployment and system configuration
- ✓Git-based versioning with full change history
- ✓Fail-safes and validation at every step
Automation Categories
Show Control Systems
Unified control interfaces that coordinate lighting, video, audio, automation, and pyro from a single trigger source.
- • QLab integration
- • Medialon builds
- • Custom Python/Node controllers
Data Pipeline Automation
Automated workflows that transform, validate, and distribute show data across all production systems.
- • Cue sheet to console sync
- • Patch list generation
- • Asset distribution
Version Control Systems
Git-based show file management with branching, merging, and rollback capabilities for production environments.
- • Show file versioning
- • Multi-venue variants
- • Collaborative editing
Timecode Automation
Frame-accurate synchronization and automated show execution driven by LTC, MTC, or network timecode.
- • Multi-system sync
- • Backup failover
- • Show logging
Validation & Testing
Automated pre-show checks that verify system health, data integrity, and communication pathways.
- • Network diagnostics
- • Cue validation
- • System health monitoring
Configuration Management
Infrastructure-as-code approaches to production system deployment and configuration.
- • Network configs
- • Console templates
- • Server provisioning
Methodology
Discovery
We audit your existing workflows, identify bottlenecks, and quantify time lost to manual processes. Every automation project starts with understanding your pain points.
Architecture
Design the automation system with scalability, maintainability, and operator usability as primary concerns. We document everything before writing a single line of code.
Development
Build in iterative cycles with frequent stakeholder review. We use industry-standard protocols (OSC, MIDI, REST, TCP/UDP) to ensure interoperability.
Testing
Rigorous testing in isolated environments before any production deployment. We simulate failure modes and verify graceful degradation.
Deployment
Staged rollout with operator training and comprehensive documentation. We don't hand off until your team is confident.
Support
Ongoing maintenance, updates, and 24/7 support for critical show periods. Your automation is never abandoned.
