Reasons Why We Own Our Audio Visual Gear: The In-House Advantage

A live event is composed of a variety of moving parts. One of the pieces that Brite Ideas gets most excited about is providing the event equipment that turns plans into reality. While magic can be found throughout the planning process, it really happens when the plans and the practicals converge as an event comes to life. That’s one of the many reasons why it matters so much to us at Brite Ideas to own our audio visual gear.

Even Our Audio Visual Gear Starts with a Story

Gregy Christy, Brite Ideas Co-Founder and CEO, found his first job working for himself when another company folded and he still showed up to run lighting for the event. Arriving ready to work and with gear in hand laid a foundation for the beliefs that Brite Ideas holds to even to this day.

We have been showing up ever since traveling with our audio visual gear from our headquarters in Southern California to around the world. As Greg continued to grow and increase his skills, he built a team that expanded alongside a growing gear inventory.

While the Brite Ideas story began simply with theater light design, that list has only grown to include the services we offer today:

  • Live Event Production
  • Design + Content Creation
  • Virtual Events

We provide the gear, the production team, and the planning process to build your event from scratch. We work alongside associations, corporations, institutions, agencies, producers and event planners that span the non-profit, corporate, and special event industries.

Piece by piece through the years we have amassed an inventory of gear and connections within a variety of industries. Being able to provide our own audio visual rental services is one of the features that sets us apart within our industry.

What it Takes to Put on a Live Event Production

Because of our company’s roots in theatrical design, we think of ourselves as theatrical artists first who just happen to own our gear. We’ve made it a point to build this equipment library in order to benefit you.

We’re committed to giving you the million-dollar show without the million-dollar price tag! Functioning as our own AV equipment supplier, we offer competitive pricing and high-quality productions at a fraction of the cost. Having ownership of our own AV equipment is what largely enables us to do so because it:

  • eliminates add-on fees for sub-rentals
  • maintains quality control over production
  • caters pricing specifically to you and your event needs
  • ensures your budget goes further allowing for fun additions

We store all of our gear at our headquarters in California and send it along with our crew worldwide. Because of this, there are no limitations on what we can provide and the budgets we are able to meet. Walking out our business in this freedom is where we thrive!

Owning Our Own Audio Visual Gear: Both Practical & Magical

For most audio visual companies, they put the technology first and focus solely on providing the hardware for your event. While we may start with this value of owning our own audio visual gear, that’s not where we stop.

For us, we often step in at the beginning stages of your event planning process. Owning our own audio visual equipment was never meant to be done for its own sake. We not only provide the hardware, but we create the imagery and creativity to deliver a fully integrated production.

It all begins with telling your own story in a way that clearly communicates a message to your audience. It’s knowing that combined with how you hope to represent your story in a visual way. That’s where we love to step into the process. The ability to bring along our own gear is an added bonus!

Equipment ownership places us at the front lines of quality control over what we use and how it’s used. This is a feature that benefits our ability to act upon our foundational belief of putting your story first, and the tech second.

We put our focus on both technological advancement and the visual reimaginings of your event. This is what continues to expand the possibilities of your event design. At Brite Ideas, we get excited about updating, maintaining, and reinventing our equipment to better match the story we’re telling for you!
