Touring Experience

Built for headline shows and touring stages

Steve Aoki · Aokify America

Visual direction, content design, and live VJ performance for the 2013 North American run. The project documents adaptation across clubs, theatres, civic auditoriums, arenas, and amphitheatres, with artist-specific LED looks and touring scenic architecture.

Adventure Club · When Darkness Falls

An 18-city U.S. tour in 2015 with a scalable cityscape of moving 8mm LED elements. MELT’s documented scope includes stage design, creative direction, animation, custom mapping, and live VJ operation; the case study preserves the collaborators and production credits.

Life in Color · Kingdom

Three scalable versions of the international touring stage, integrating scenic architecture, lighting, video, animation, show programming, and on-site VJ operation. The project describes international advancing and the logistics of moving scenic elements between countries.

Sidepiece · Timecoded festival content

Track-specific show videos for international festival dates and large LED canvases, with lyric, render, loop, and supporting asset passes. The project documents the content handoff and intended playback use.

Production Planning

Scope the full show, then define MELT’s role

For a headline tour, start with the set list, creative direction, stage renders, LED maps, routing, rehearsal dates, and production contacts. MELT EVERYTHING can develop the visual identity and content package, with stage design, programming, and live operation scoped to the production.

Agree the deliverables for each screen configuration, timecoded and live-operated moments, revisions, and playback tests. Identify who supplies hardware, who programs the media servers, and who signs off the show-ready content. Crew availability, travel, and operator coverage are confirmed against the actual dates.

Best Fit

When MELT is the right partner

Compare your brief with the services, project examples, and production requirements below.

Strong fit signals

  • DJ and electronic artist tours that need a visual package with identity, motion language, drops, loops, transitions, and logo moments.
  • Shows that combine VJ flexibility with timecoded hero moments.
  • Teams working from LED maps, stage renders, show files, music references, or brand systems.
  • Artists who need content that can survive multiple venues, screen formats, and festival adaptations.

Not Every Project

When another option may be better

The right scope depends on your creative goals, production requirements, and the team already in place.

Lower-fit situations

  • The show only needs stock VJ loops.
  • There is no artist identity, music direction, or production spec to design around.
  • The project needs only lighting programming without custom screen content.

Buyer Questions

What buyers usually need to know

What does an EDM tour visual package include?

A package can include logo animations, loops, drops, transitions, VJ banks, timecoded clips, LED wall exports, festival-safe versions, and technical notes for production teams.

Can MELT create visuals for an existing LED wall spec?

Yes. MELT can design around pixel maps, stage renders, screen dimensions, trims, lighting notes, and show control requirements.

Do EDM tour visuals need to be timecoded?

Not always. Many shows benefit from a hybrid workflow: timecoded hero moments for precision and VJ-ready clips for live flexibility.
