She's highly motivated by treats and scratches. She is often found around the office napping, begging for attention, or convincing her fellow staff members it is time to play fetch.   - [Luna](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/luna/): Our Director of Hoo-man Resources, Luna, ensures a proper work-play balance in the office. While overseeing a safe working environment, she also manages mandated breaks and naps. While she is not laying down the law at work, she enjoys long naps on the porch, extended dog park visits and play dates, and off-leash hikes in the mountains. - [Andrew Becker](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/andrew-becker/): Andrew Becker is our resident Lighting Designer who designs, builds, programs and board-ops light shows for weddings, corporate events, festival stages and seasonal art installations. Andrew believes a good lighting design is half technical know how and half artistic vision. - [Luke](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/luke/): Having honed his skills in nearly every facet of the concert industry, Luke has racked up a work history large enough to fill an arena or two. While going to school for music production, he started running live sound for events, (including for Kaleidoscope starting back in 2011). Somewhere along the way, he picked up experience as an LD at a world renowned nightclub. His thirst for new experiences didn't stop there. He steadily added VJ, stage management, and A/V design experience to his resume along with running a backline company. He spent several years working as a production manager for AEG, managing venues from the Bluebird, Gothic, and Ogden Theaters, up to Red Rocks, music festivals, and arena shows. When concerts stopped due to a global pandemic, he pivoted into live broadcast, helping curate unique live experiences for corporations and individuals alike. Once everyone eventually got 'Zoom Fatigue' and concerts came back, he was pulled right back into the thick of it, starting his current role at Kaleidoscope as a project manager. With requests for gear and production expertise at an all time high, Luke has been putting his diverse knowledge and experience to work helping events of all scales come to fruition. With a strong background in every aspect of live events, no scope is too large or small. With Kaleidoscope's extensive equipment arsenal behind him, he can help you manifest your ideas into reality for your event or install.  - [Jamie Collins](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/jamie-collins/): Born and raised in rural Arkansas, Jamie Collins moved away to the "big city" as a young adult, where he graduated with honors from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock with degrees in Political Science and Mass Communications with an emphasis in Writing.

From the beginning, we have worked closely with JBL speakers, and the Harman family of products. The partnership with Harman has been an integral part of our growth, and has given us access to a wide range of products and brands with expert support from their team in Northridge, CA. In 2015, we became the first company in Colorado to purchase a JBL VTX line array system. This was a big step for us as a company, and allowed us to take on larger shows and a broader range of clients. Nearly 15 years later, our equipment inventory includes multiple product lines from JBL, Martin Aura and ERA lighting, and a variety of Soundcraft consoles. Our ties to Harman remain strong and we have benefited immensely from the professional and personal relationships we have developed over the last decade and a half. - [Backline](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/services/backline/): Services / - [Staging](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/services/staging/): Services / - [Video](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/services/video/): Services / - [Lighting](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/services/lighting/): Services / - [Denver](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/destinations/denver/): About / Destinations - [Colorado Springs](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/destinations/colorado-springs/): About / Destinations - [Estes Park](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/destinations/estes-park/): About / Destinations - [Breckenridge](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/destinations/breckenridge/): About / Destinations - [Vail](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/destinations/vail/): About / Destinations - [Destinations](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/destinations/): About / - [Contact](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/contact/): contact drop us a note NameEvent LocationPhone(Required)MessageEmail Event Date Submit drop us a note NamePhone(Required)Email Event Date Event LocationMessage Submit drop us a note - [Audio](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/services/audio/): Services / - [About](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/about/): A small sophisticated business that offers highly customized and specialized products and services. - [Home](https://kaleidoscope-co.com/): Kaleidoscope Productions is a boutique event production company specializing in audio, lighting, video, staging and backline.
