You do not need a technology partner as well
Most people come to the Woodshop for the build. Then, somewhere near the end, the questions start. How do we light it. What is driving that screen. Who is running the game on the touchscreen. Can we capture the leads.
The answer is us. Premier Woodshop is part of Premier, a full-service event agency since 2009, and the AV, the interactive technology and the technical crew are all in-house. Not a preferred supplier, not a partner we sub it out to. Our own team, our own kit, in our own warehouse located next to the Woodshop.
So the people building your stand are talking to the people powering it from day one, rather than meeting each other for the first time on site.
What we bring besides the build
AV production
Sound, lighting, video, staging, rigging, power and distro, and the technicians to run it. Delivered by Premier Live, the AV side of the business. Conferences, awards, launches, exhibitions. They have done it a hundred times before.
Interactive
Touchscreens and kiosks, immersive and projection-led installs, AR and VR, photo and video moments built to be shared, social and UGC walls. The things people walk up to and actually use. See our activations.
Automation and software
Sensor and motion-triggered installations, automated screen triggering, self-service touchpoints and data capture. And because we build our own systems, we connect things up: a game feeding a CRM, a screen driven by a live data feed, a form that writes straight into your system. If it does not come off a shelf, ask. See how it works.
Gamification
Competitions and challenges, leaderboards and live scoring, prize draws and reward mechanics, spin-to-win and quizzes, branded games built around your campaign. Technology that gets people competing. See the games.
Content and creative
Graphics, animation, video and run of show, produced in-house. So what is on the screens matches what is on the stand.
Registration and data
Delegate registration, badging and lead capture, run by our own team. You get the engagement and the follow-up data from the same activation.
One team, one delivery
A stand built by one company and fitted out by another is two sets of drawings, two site visits, two people to chase and one argument about whose cable that is.
When it all comes through us, the build and the technology are designed together. Screen apertures are cut to the actual screen. Cable routes exist before the panels go on. Power is worked out at drawing stage, not on the loading bay. The crew installing the AV already know the build, because their colleagues made it.
And there is one number to ring when something changes, which on a live job it always does.
How we do it
1. Tell us what the stand or the activation has to achieve. The audience, the space, the thing you want people to do.
2. We design the build and the technology as one piece of work, and quote it as one piece of work.
3. We make it in Thurmaston and we install it with our own team.
4. We crew it while it is open and we take it away afterwards.
You can also just take the build. Plenty of clients do. But it is worth knowing the rest is there.
Brands we've built for
Technology questions we get asked
In-house. Premier Live is part of the same company, on the same industrial estate, with its own warehouse of sound, lighting, video and staging kit.
Yes. And the other way round. Take whichever bits are useful.
Yes. We build for agencies and production companies all the time, quietly and to the same standard. Your client, your relationship, your credit.
Yes. We build the capture into the experience itself, so the sign-up or the share is part of playing rather than something bolted on at the end.
Yes. Every screen, game and touchpoint is built around your brand, with the creative produced in-house. It looks like your campaign, not a template.
Tell us anyway. We build our own software, so bespoke is a conversation rather than a straight no.
