Living Light Shows specializes in smart RGB pixel light technology that couples the latest hardware and software to create technology-centric holiday light shows and dynamic displays that mesmerize and captivate audiences of all ages. We offer guidance, engineering, fabrication, programming and sequencing services to commercial venues that result in spectacular light attractions and increased event attendance. We regularly receive National and International attention for our ground-breaking technology innovations and projects. Nothing has quite the impact and universal appeal as a magical lighting composition that couples vibrant computer-controlled lights with mesmerizing custom effects synchronized to musical soundtracks. It was this marriage of media injected with my knowledge of technology and a unique artistic style that first launched me onto the national scene in 2013 and earned me a place on ABC's reality series "The Great Christmas Light Fight". The result was overwhelming exposure resulting in the creation of Living Light Shows, which today has projects from across the world.Our products and projects continue to spark excitement in the press and go viral year-after-year with interviews and appearances on every major media outlet including ABC, NBC, WIRED, Buzzfeed, Yahoo!, BBC, Good Morning America, Inside Edition, and many more. We are the only company of our kind that has had unprecedented traction on social media racking up tens of millions of views across social media platforms every year for our work. I continually hear from fans that the number of lights in a holiday display are no longer sufficient to impress, what matters to the highly sought after Millennials and iGen markets are what the lights DO. If your company or organization has a boring, stagnant, traditional static light display and wants to improve or evolve into something that captivates audiences, generates excitement, and goes viral on social media then please contact me.
