TSE Live Wire

As some of you know, TSE Live is the preferred vendor at Capital Turnaround, in the Navy Yard neighborhood of Washington DC. This event space is owned and operated by NCC – National Christian Church, where they hold regular church services on Thursday evenings and Sundays. Since this state of the art facility remained unused for much of the rest of the week, the church, who has always had a mission of public/private partnership in its history, makes the facility available as event space for Corporate, Private events. They are completing phase three of the facility and vendors were given a sneak peak at the event space during an open house style event. The new space will greatly improve the usable offerings to clients. TSE was proud to provide our latest LED digital signage options, and décor lighting to the event. Our newest products and offerings provide an excellent resource to clients coming into the facility and we continue to engage clients, expanding even their own vision for what the space can provide. We are honored to be the preferred vendor for all audio visual support in the venue, and equally proud that this facility continues to be the “hottest go to place” in the city. This will mark a significant moment of growth for all the vendor organizations supporting NCC and their very unique space in the Navy Yard community of Washington DC.

This has been our 8th CEO Summit for QED Investors, based in Alexandria VA. QED invests in startup companies in the FinTech space (Financial Technologies). Once a year QED brings their CEO/Entrepreneurs to the city for a 3 day event, providing industry experts in their space to acknowledge their work, and provide insight to the challenges they may have in the industry space. As the CEO summit has grown, so have the technical demands on the meeting. I remember the first summit with just 3 65” flat panel TV’s as the level of tech provided. This year we provided a very cost effective LED wall approach using iPoster technologies instead of traditional LED wall tiles, saving about 60% on the costing of a very effective layout. Custom graphics and animations were provided to enhance the messaging across 5 sets of combined panels, with the main LED panels upstage center providing an equivalent screen size of 7’x14’ display area. A Millumin computer system provided the content as multiple outputs, providing control over all 5 surfaces. TSE continues to provide creative ways of meeting the needs of our clients, and that in turn provides loyalty and partnership with them.

New INFiLED RS 2.6 Ultra + RS 2.6 Ultra Mini system arrived last month. Because the RS cabinets are about 25-35% lighter than comparable rental cabinets, this product gives TSE the ability to fly larger walls with less rigging weight, easier handling, faster load-ins, and less crew fatigue. For Ballroom work in particular, flying LED is more time and labor efficient. Using LED also eliminates projection paths which can free up valuable floor space and simplify layouts. Let's talk about how we can implement this solution on your next project!

TSE Live! spent the past week with one of our awesome partners, DBIA, at the Gaylord Texan resort last week welcoming 2 waves of Design-Build Professionals. TSE supported the event in typical TSE Live 360 fashion including Digital Signage and Scenic Elements that matched the groups branding. Thanks to Lexi and the entire DBIA Team for a great week!!

TSE Live had the privilege of spending President's Day with our partners at First United Bank to recognize all of the everyday Superheroes that work at the bank! The commitment to community and each other is a testament to the great work these Everyday Heroes do. TSE Live supported the day with scenic elements, experiential lighting, and graphic support. Can't wait for next year!

As we are digging out the snow/ice storm, I got to musing about the many ways we have used our custom borderless projection screens. TSE has an ever growing stable of large format screens that we have been mixing and matching on various projects within the last year. Want to add the "wow" to your next event? Hit us up!

TSE Live kicked off 2026 at the St. Louis Convention Center with one of our long time partners! Using 166' of custom boarderless screens, we created a unique wall to wall branding experience. A great way to start the year!
