Services
Straight Street is a full service Event Production and design company that takes extreme pride in customer satisfaction, our reputation of excellence and that we now can operate without utilizing salespeople, relying on our comprehensive consulting capabilities, client referrals and sub-contracts from other respected show producers and associate “competitors” for the entirety of our sales.
This basically means we are the resource for the other top resources to promote.
Our portfolio of self-capability is much broader than many event production businesses and extends well into the video production, visually spectacular effects, large screen projection plus event planning, décor and event management. Considerable savings can be passed on to clients with our own video switching and editing equipment, cameras, computerized lighting fixtures and controllers, large screen projection equipment and even small items like draperies.
The key principal, Keith Kissner, has nearly 40 years of successful experience in the field and is well respected and liked by both clients and peers alike. Mutual working relationships are established with all major competitors and suppliers thus the access to anything that is needed to properly complete an event is readily accessible without excessive surcharges to the client.
Our Focus:
Our primary focus is the corporate event market, on everything corporate from an internal presentation ceremony to major special marketing events. Unlike many larger audio/lighting firms where the mainstay business is the large live music touring events, our staff, equipment inventory and full attention is for our corporate clients who never have a fear that there event is too small to demand our absolute best equipment, staff and efforts.
Our Specialties:
We are extremely capable in high-end gala events and turning them into newsworthy spectacles, making every single attendee feeling that considerable effort and expense has been made to maximize their experience. We transform entire rooms, not just the stages, into a spectacular and constantly changing theme environment using state-of-the-art computerized lighting and extremely high talent behind the control console. By using lighting and projected images, often in combination with physical props, we create a living environment that attendees (and broadcast viewers) will remember for a lifetime.Our true specialty is quality; Quality in design, quality in planning, quality in production and quality in expedient service.
Our Expertise:
Being in the business a long time means knowing personally all the people who have been at it for their entire working life. Many of our consultants have decades of experience in both live performance music events and in the corporate arena. This means the little glitches that usually occur with the lesser experienced are old hat to most of our people and would never occur on a client’s show (or as a surprise on their budget).We can pay attention to the smallest of detail because we understand the small detail, a product of our experience.
Our Equipment:
Our own equipment is all neatly packaged in truck-ready fit, high durability road cases with foam insulated interiors. This ensures minimal transport damage and maximum results on site.
We pride ourselves in having the most efficient load-in, setup, take-down and load-out in the industry. Manpower costs are dramatically reduced and handling damage is nearly non-existent. Our equipment is tested before it goes out and works when used for the event.
We have our own audio, lighting, staging, power and video equipment to cover major music shows and corporate events, up to 5-15,000 people outdoors with exceptional fidelity and function.
Many competitors have lengthy legal disclaimers for their equipment, we don’t. Our equipment works effectively for every event and our staff is technically capable. Lower failure also means lower cost for both us and our clients.
