In today’s world, technology is rapidly advancing with the introduction of artificial intelligence, often abbreviated as AI. While AI can be a useful tool, it has put the integrity of the fine arts in jeopardy. Sometimes it may be difficult to assess whether art has been crafted by people or generated by AI.

We want to firmly and formally announce that we, Broadway Media, do not utilize AI in our digital imagery. Every design is either direct from Broadway or crafted by our very own (and very talented!) creative team.

Digital projections are ushering theatre into a new age. Many Broadway and professional productions have incorporated video and projections into their set design. Broadway Media makes it possible to bring these same resources to your stage to elevate your storytelling and production value.

In continuing to innovate our offerings, we recognize that there is no substitute for artistry, animation, and incredible attention to detail. That’s why our projections are made by real artists, who ensure the projections tell the story in a way that reflects the original creator’s intent. When you work with Broadway Media, you’re supporting actual artists, designers, animators, choreographers, and Theatre-Makers just like you.

Achieving Broadway-level quality is of utmost importance in our product development. Working with theatre professionals has elevated our creative talent, allowing us to innovate resources featuring the original Broadway content.

We are privileged to utilize the creative works of award-winning, professional projection designers such as Fray Studios (Mean Girls) and Aaron Rhyne (Anastasia, A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder). <a href="https://www.broadwaymedia.com/blog/a-gentlemans-guide-to-projection-design">Read our interview with Aaron Rhyne and his thoughts on projection design here.</a>

Our in-house team of artists &amp; designers craft backdrops with vivid scenery and great detail while staying true to the author’s creative intent. The ultimate goal? Crafting artistry in new and relevant ways that will ultimately translate to an accessible resource for theatres worldwide.

Once the designs are finished, our animators add seamless movement, effects, &amp; transitions to bring the imagery to life. Some of our favorite “magical moments” include the dragon breaking through the church in Shrek the Musical, Uncle Fester’s flying rocket in The Addams Family, and the magic carpet ride in Disney’s Aladdin.&nbsp;

Crafted, Not Generated: The Importance of Artistry | Broadway Media

Crafted, Not Generated: The Importance of Artistry

Do you hear that sound? It’s our new and exciting Scenic Projections show package, Beetlejuice JR! Digital projection rentals from Broadway Media make it possible to bring the ghost-with-the-most to your stage.&nbsp;

The story centers around Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager obsessed with the whole “being dead thing.” Lucky for Lydia, her new house is haunted by a recently deceased couple and Beetlejuice, the titular character with a real zest for life…and mischief.

Our digital projections package for Beetlejuice JR will transform your stage into a wildly immersive, spooky, and whimsical world. Projections keep your show moving and help enhance the storytelling of this must-perform show.

With stunning visuals and vibrant colors, digital projections transport your audience to each setting of the show with the click of a button, from the gothic mansion to the topsy-turvy Netherworld. For instance, the opening projection for the prologue goes beyond a simple graveyard - swirling mist and glowing tombstones help immediately set the eerie tone.

Topsy-Turvy Transitions + Eccentric Effects&nbsp;

Projections are not only visually stunning, but they help solve for the many challenging transitions and effects of this show. When Beetlejuice possesses the house, the audience is transported straight from the attic to a fully transformed mansion with bright green walls and a swirl patterned staircase.&nbsp;

Rather than hurrying to reset the scene, our digital projections seamlessly transition from one scene to the next in line with the official script.&nbsp;Projections are a guaranteed way to make these quick scene changes possible and fun!

There are so many surreal settings in this show - most notably the Netherworld. Projections easily transition with a spiral animation downward into the Netherworld, creating a dazzling visual effect for your audience.&nbsp;

Later on, the living room becomes the Life and Death game show, complete with flickering lights, neon signage, and spinning wheels. Zany lights and animations help amplify Beetlejuice’s chaotic presence.&nbsp;

An iconic scene of both the movie and the musical is the Sandworm attack. When the Sandworm arrives, our animated backdrops feature effects of the house shaking and passing shadows, elevating this climatic moment in the show.

Our projections feature an animation of a Sandworm, taking the hassle and cost out of building your own.&nbsp;<b>&nbsp;</b>However, this projection package features the flexible option to have your own physical Sandworm instead, if you choose.&nbsp;One version features the animated Sandworm, and one version features a green spotlight for your own Sandworm to make its grand entrance.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Add depth and dimension to this delightfully dark and comedic tale with licensed digital scenery offerings from Broadway Media, an accessible and affordable avenue for all levels of theatre!&nbsp;

Recently, Playbill released an article<a href="https://playbill.com/article/when-a-dance-video-becomes-plagiarism?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaZT0X2gI5ZnpRFVIFUgTU19ijs4wcBkYqhktBEx8Oi9nd1Tss7D2JxofVQ_aem_ZDX1oaZFsm0bkXu8yV94sA"> “When A Dance Video Becomes Plagiarism</a>.” This article brought the experience of Broadway professional Courtney<a href="https://www.broadwaydancecenter.com/faculty/courtney-ortiz"> Ortiz</a>, who discovered that her choreography was being used without credit, to light. Now, it has reinvigorated the larger conversation about intellectual property rights in the dance industry.&nbsp;

Broadway choreographers have long advocated for more protections against unauthorized reproductions of their work, and while efforts are underway to establish better protections for choreographers' intellectual property, it continues to be a serious problem.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Ultimately, choreographers wish to be respected and credited for their work. At Broadway Media, we understand this issue all too well and have taken proactive steps to address creative rights by providing a clear pathway to licensing choreography and making it affordable and accessible for all levels of Theatre-Makers to utilize. Our services can help play a significant role in protecting and promoting choreographers’ creative works, in an effort to preserve the integrity of their art and support their intellectual property rights.

By partnering with MTI, Disney Theatrical, and TRW, we provide Theatre-Makers access to Broadway-level choreography through our product, <a href="http://broadwaymedia.com/choreography-guides">Choreography Guides.</a> We are privileged to license the creative works of many esteemed choreographers, including <a href="https://playbill.com/person/matt-west-vault-0000004865">Matt West,</a> <a href="https://sergiotrujillo.com/">Sergio Trujillo</a>, and Tony-winning director/choreographer <a href="https://playbill.com/person/jerry-mitchell-vault-0000000581">Jerry Mitchell</a>.&nbsp;

In short, Choreography Guides are easy-to-use, digital video guides that elevate dance and movement for popular show titles, plus offer insight to the stories behind the steps. These videos are led by professional choreographers in the industry. Choreography Guides either feature original Broadway choreography, or inspired movement that chiefly values the creative integrity of the intellectual property. This solution-based resource was designed to assist directors in achieving Broadway-quality choreography and adapt it to the spirit and skill level of their company.

Broadway Media is dedicated to supporting and empowering choreographers (and other theatrical designers) by providing comprehensive licensing solutions that protect and promote their creative work. Choreography Guides adapt original choreography to suit the unique needs of community and school productions, ensuring proper attribution and compensation - which enhances the educational experience for students and performers worldwide.

Choreography is such an important art form that helps tell the story of a show. Supporting and safeguarding the creative rights of choreographers is - and always will be - a top priority at Broadway Media.

Thank you for all your help with getting our production rental set up. There were a lot of extra layers to this show with projections, but the projection package from Broadway Media took part of that stress away!

Arrowhead High School

It worked great for us. Our theater is over 100 years old and is a renovated movie theater with very limited wing space. The projections have opened up a lot of possibilities for future production options. Even by using an old, back of the theater, projector.

It was the very first production for Newtown Stage Co and we sold out both performances! We LOVED the slides and plan on using slides for every show moving forward.
