YOU CAN
STAND INSIDE.
We create and program ILDA laser shows for live music, events, livestreams, and performance environments. Custom-created aerial effects cut through haze with frame-level control.
Laser is a regulated medium, and we treat it that way. Beam zones, audience exclusion, divergence, and power levels are engineered before the first frame is drawn. We are fully FDA Variance-certified where required. Serious on paper, so it can be relentless in the room.

THE MIND BEHIND
THE SHOW
Projected Reality is led by Joe Faratzis, a veteran media producer, visual designer and show systems builder creating immersive live environments where lighting, lasers, projection, cameras and code operate as one.
Joe's background spans both traditional media production and the technical systems behind modern live experiences. He designs and builds custom production environments from the ground up. Seamlessly integrating cameras, lighting, projection, livestream infrastructure, automation, interactive visuals and real-time show control into a single coordinated system.
Rather than treating lighting, lasers, video and interaction as separate elements, his work is built around making them respond together. DMX-controlled lighting, ILDA laser programming, projection, live visual software, custom code and audience-triggered interactions can all become part of the same performance.
The result is more than content on a screen or lights on a stage. It's a deliberately programmed environment where every blackout, transition, visual cue and impact is part of the experience.
Joe is also the founder of Radiant14, a cancer awareness brand and community supported by more than 70,000 followers.
