Production Club (legally Production Club Inc.) is a Los Angeles–based creative, experiential design and production studio. It designs and produces live experiences, including creative direction, stage design, show visuals, brand activations and creative technology, for clients in the music, technology, gaming and sports industries.
History
Production Club was founded on February 29, 2012, by Vivek Srinivasan, Miguel Risueño, Kyle McCarthy and Corey Johnson.[1][2][3] Srinivasan and Johnson are University of Southern California alumni.[4][5]
The company's early work was in live music. It designed lighting, visuals and stage productions for artists including Skrillex and Zedd.[6][7][8] It built the spaceship stage for Skrillex's 2014 Mothership Tour, which debuted at Coachella 2014 and needed eight 53-foot trailers to transport it.[9][10][11] Production Club also handled lighting design, visuals, stage design and show direction for The Chainsmokers' touring,[12][13] and worked with Martin Garrix, Nero, Kill the Noise, ZHU, DJ Snake and Diplo.[14][15][16]
Starting in 2012, the company produced a series of large-scale private parties for Markus "Notch" Persson, the creator of Minecraft.[17][18][19] These included the .party() events, among them a June 2015 edition in a dome built inside the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum,[16][20][21][22] and a 2022 edition built around a narrative for guests to follow.[23]
Corporate and sports events
Since 2014, Production Club has designed and produced re:Play, the closing party of Amazon Web Services' annual re:Invent conference in Las Vegas.[24][3] For re:Invent 2016, it built a 40-foot-wide, 200-foot-long bridge from the Sands Expo loading dock over a private road and under the Las Vegas Monorail, connecting the conference to a 475,000-square-foot entertainment campus.[25]
Since Super Bowl LV in 2021, the company has designed Super Bowl game-day elements, including the light shows, displays and segments featured in the pregame broadcasts and the teams' on-field entrances.[26][27][28][29] It also worked on the halftime show of the NFL's 2024 regular-season game in São Paulo, Brazil, featuring Anitta.[30]
Micrashell
In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Production Club presented Micrashell, a concept for a wearable protective suit meant to let people socialize at concerts and nightlife events without physical distancing. The concept was covered by design and music outlets.[31][32][33]
MásForMore
MásForMore (legally Mas For More) is a Los Angeles nonprofit founded by members of Production Club, recognized as a 501(c)(3) public charity in 2021.[34] Since 2020 it has co-hosted an annual holiday toy giveaway with Production Club at the company's Chinatown headquarters.[35] It has also co-organized Farmchella, a community event for farmworking families in the Coachella Valley.[36]
