History
A brief synopsis of our journey
StageCulture began in 2013 under the leadership of Andrew Ayers to provide audio, video and lighting sales to houses of worship. Over the years StageCulture continues to grow not only in providing the right equipment, but in training, system design, and installation. In 2018, StageCulture partnered with DownDeep productions to extend our reach and resources with set design and more extensive rental options. In 2018, Jacob Frame joined the team to increase our knowledge in audio, video, and systems automation.
Andrew Ayers
Owner, CEO, Lighting Whiz
I began StageCulture in 2013 as a means to provide organizations with a resource for all things audio, video and lighting. Over the years, I have acquired vast industry experience working within houses of worship, restaurants, golf courses, theaters, arenas and many other venues all over the US. In total, I have worked in the multimedia production field for over 15 years. At the start, I felt a calling to provide quality production services to houses of worship, concerts and corporate environments to follow. I have a huge passion for technology and multimedia and strive to develop leading solutions for the variety of different production environments.
Over the years I have had the privilege to have worked beside artist like Toby Mac, Aaron Cole, Ryan Stevenson, Josh Holiday, Vince Gill, ColdPlay, Heather Hadley, and Perpetual Groove. I have also worked alongside the PGA Tour, YMCA, McDonalds and Blue Cross and Blue Shield to bring a professional experience to each event. I love utilizing these opportunities and experiences to incorporate unique elements into the projects for StageCulture clients.
Jacob Frame
Cool Dude, Programming Guru
I started my journey with StageCulture in 2018 and I couldn't be more excited. I bring with me an I.T. background, to include networking, systems programming and troubles shooting, as well as server administration. In addition to my I.T. background, I have my fair share of Audio, Video, and Lighting experience, everything from hotels to churches, live events to studio production. I hold industry recognized certifications in Dante and Q-Sys technologies.
My A.V.L. journey started as a humble volunteer for a church back home and quickly grew from there. I began tech-ing for live events, eventually being picked up by an in-house AV company for a 4 star Hotel and Conference Center where I was quickly promoted to Director of AV. From there my wife and I relocated to Central Florida where I was hired as a production coordinator working with Andrew at a local church. We've both since accepted positions working at a popular theme park in the area. All that to say, we both have a ton of experience from a variety of venues and settings. We know how it is in the trenches and know the best practices to overcome common obstacles.
