Spectacular Shows That Capture the Imagination

We create, program and operate lighting that transforms events and performances into something unforgettable. From the first sketch to the final show, we combine creativity, solid craftsmanship and technical reliability to make sure everything runs smoothly and looks incredible.

Advice

We get that every project starts with a lot of questions especially if you’re not sure where to begin. That’s where we come in. Whether you’re unsure about the technical details, need some creative ideas, or just want a fresh perspective, we’re here to guide you. We’ll work alongside you, step by step, to help turn your vision into something amazing, and make sure you’re on the right track from the very start.

Lighting Design

And we know lighting is a big part of making those moments unforgettable. Light can tell a story, set a mood, and make an impact on your audience. We’re right there with you, designing lighting that perfectly fits your vision whether it’s a quiet, intimate feeling or something bigger and bolder. Together, we’ll make sure the lighting flows naturally with your show and helps bring everything to life.

Preprogramming

When it comes time to rehearse, we know you’ve got enough on your plate. That’s why we take care of all the technical stuff ahead of time. We’ll preprogram all the lighting cues and timings, so you don’t have to worry about anything when it’s showtime. You can focus on the performance while we make sure everything’s ready to go.

Show Design

Once we’ve got the basics in place, it’s time to dive into the heart of the show. We know that a show isn’t just about lights and sound it’s about creating moments that connect with your audience. We’ll work with you to shape those moments, thinking through every detail so everything fits together smoothly. We’re here to help bring your ideas to life in the best way possible, making sure everything works in harmony.

Visualization

We also understand that it can be hard to imagine how everything will come together. That’s why we’re here to make it easy. We’ll create realistic 3D visualizations of your lighting and show design, so you can see exactly how it’ll all come together. It’s not just a helpful planning tool, but also a way to share your vision with everyone involved, so everyone’s on the same page.

Light Operating

And when the lights go down and the show starts, we’ve got your back. Our operators are there to make sure every cue, every effect, is perfectly timed and supports the flow of the show. You focus on what happens on stage, and we’ll make sure the lighting works seamlessly to enhance your show.

We are Tom Franken and Jarno Goedegebuur, two creative makers with a shared love for light. Curiosity keeps us moving, craftsmanship keeps us grounded, and we both get a real kick out of turning ideas into something people can feel. Our partnership is built on complementary perspectives, and together we create moments that feel effortless and alive.

We value honesty, short lines and working side by side. Whether we are on-site, in the studio or behind the console, we believe in clear communication, practical thinking and staying calm under pressure. We keep learning by doing, moving fast, sketching boldly and adapting as we go to make every project a little better than the one before.

More than just work, this is a partnership built on trust. We challenge each other, celebrate the small wins and aim for results that are both beautiful and reliable. When you work with Tom and Jarno, you get our full attention, straight talk and a genuine love for making things shine.
