Solutions
Solutions.
You don’t need to hand everything over to us. Do what you can in-house, and we’ll support only the parts that need specialist expertise, from XPression production to technical support and live operation.
The first step in every Build or Connect project. Instead of treating updates, data, graphics and operation separately, we design one workflow your whole team can sustain.
Details (challenges and scope)
Common challenges
- Who updates what depends on a few people, and the rules live in their heads
- Last-minute swaps and changes before going live always leave you playing catch-up
- Data, graphics and operation are contracted separately, so nothing is designed to work as a whole
What’s included
- As part of a Build or Connect project, we first review your current workflow and map out the issues
- Data design before production or conversion begins, including tolerance for missing data and inconsistent formats
- An operations design covering updates, swaps and live handling, delivered as documentation
Engagement
Not offered on its own. It’s included in Build (Creative) and Connect (Integration / Technical Support) projects.
We take on the whole production in-house, from concept to live operation, and design it not just for how it looks but for updates, reuse and running it live.
Details (challenges, scope, process and terms)
Common challenges
- You want a production partner who takes you from concept to live operation, not one who just delivers video files
- You want someone who plans for on-site operation from the concept stage
- You’d rather have one partner for show design and system operation than two
What’s included
- Concept and show design: concepts tailored to the tournament and venue
- Production and assets: video and graphics built for live playback
- Live operation support: on-site support to run everything as designed
If you only need existing content converted, see Connect (Integration / Technical Support).
How it works
- Inquiry and consultation
- Concept and proposal
- Production
- Rehearsal and live operation
Engagement
Quoted individually, based on the scope of planning and production.
DataLinq, external data, existing systems and XPression. We fix setups where every part works but the whole doesn’t, and connect them into something your team can run.
Details (challenges, scope, process and terms)
Common challenges
- You have content made in Adobe After Effects and want to use it in XPression, but don’t know how
- You want to bring outsourced XPression operation in-house, but don’t know where to start
- You want timing you can adjust on site, not just fixed video playback
What’s included
- After Effects to XPression conversion: rebuilt as XPression projects while keeping the original design
- Built for rehearsal and live use: supports both pre-show rehearsal and adjustments during the show
- Help bringing operation in-house: documentation and training so your team can run it long term
Doesn’t include concept development or asset creation from scratch. If you need that, see Build (Creative).
How it works
- Inquiry and consultation
- Assessment and quote
- Conversion and restructuring
- Rehearsal and handover
Engagement
Quoted per project, based on the content and the scope of conversion.
Your team runs day-to-day operations. For key events and expert judgment calls, we support you online or on site.
Details (challenges, scope, process and terms)
Common challenges
- You can’t find an operator who can update the score display in real time during games
- Building a score layout from scratch just for a one-off or short event is a lot of work
- You’re worried about legibility and stability at the pace of the game
What’s included
- Score layout design and XPression project setup
- DataLinq integration: live score data flows into the graphics automatically
- On-site display operation: we run XPression on game day (remote operation also available)
Doesn’t include producing show content such as opening shows; ask about Build (Creative) for that. XPression hardware and software licenses are not included.
How it works
- Inquiry and consultation
- Proposal and quote
- Setup and rehearsal
- Live display operation
Engagement
Flexible, based on the length of the event or season. Please get in touch for details.
