Digital scenery doesn’t just provide beautiful artwork - its animations can really help settings come to life, especially when it comes to incredible special effects.

From weather changes to magical elements, animated special effects will both captivate and immerse your audience - taking your production from good to great! Animations are masterfully woven into our Scenic Projections, cued to the official scripts.

We’ve covered <a href="https://www.broadwaymedia.com/blog/making-your-production-soar-on-a-budget">how Scenic Projections can adapt on-stage flight with seamless animations and perspective shifts</a>. Read on to learn about some of our favorite show-stopping special effects in our Scenic Projections.&nbsp;

Elsa’s Castle in “Let It Go” - Disney’s Frozen JR

The magic is essential for “Let It Go!” Our projection animations are synchronized to the song, shifting to the top of the North Mountain and intensifying the snowfall. Then the ice castle is magically built in seconds - no bulky set change required! However, you can use physical set pieces, like a balcony and/or steps, with the projections to add dimension.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Experience an icy blast with <a href="https://www.broadwaymedia.com/shows/disneys-frozen/frozen-jr/scenic-projections">Scenic Projections for Disney’s Frozen JR.&nbsp;</a>

The Dragon’s Fire-Breathing&nbsp; - Shrek the Musical

Talk about a jaw-dropping special effect! Just as Lord Farquaad and Princess Fiona are about to marry, the dragon breaks through the church's stained glass window and breathes fire at the audience (don't worry - the fire isn't real!) Animated with accurate proportions and perspective, it looks like the dragon is actually coming out of the scene.

Chalkboard Scene - Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical

The chalkboard scene is perhaps the most iconic scene in this stage adaptation of the beloved children’s book. Our seamless animations display the floating chalk writing out the eerie message to Miss Trunchbull. Another standout animated sequence is the story of the Acrobat and the Escapologist, which will captivatingly unfold in unison with your performer’s enthusiastic narration.&nbsp;

Bus Incident - Mean Girls: High School Edition

Special effects aren’t just for fantasy! Highlight the climax of Cady and Regina’s confrontation with projections, incorporating special effects for the bus incident. The animation features three different versions of Regina to match your performer’s appearance.

Join the revenge party with <a href="https://www.broadwaymedia.com/shows/mean-girls/mean-girls-high-school">&nbsp;Scenic Projections for Mean Girls High School Edition</a> and <a href="https://www.broadwaymedia.com/shows/mean-girls/mean-girls-jr/scenic-projections">Mean Girls JR.</a>

It wouldn’t be singing in the rain without - well, exactly that! No need to get your Don Lockwood wet for the titular number. Projections create a rainstorm that begins at the house, fades into the streetview, and moves down the street, giving the impression of your performer actually dancing through the neighborhood.

Thank you for all your help with getting our production rental set up. There were a lot of extra layers to this show with projections, but the projection package from Broadway Media took part of that stress away!

Scenic Projections

Arrowhead High School

It worked great for us. Our theater is over 100 years old and is a renovated movie theater with very limited wing space. The projections have opened up a lot of possibilities for future production options. Even by using an old, back of the theater, projector.

Rialto Theater

It was the very first production for Newtown Stage Co and we sold out both performances! We LOVED the slides and plan on using slides for every show moving forward.
