THEME ATTRACTIONS & RESTAURANTS

Give it a sec to load, it's worth it.

The theme industry is a whole different animal that truly crosses all the other entertainment disciplines. You really need a diverse array of knowledge and skills. Everything from concepts, to engineering, to an architectural sense, to fabrication and scenic, to interior design, to effects and lighting, to theatrics and illusion as well as marketing, merchandizing and brand development. Not to mention a sharp market and business sense, strong management, administrative and proficient people skills and keeping one eye on the budget the whole time. When I do theme projects, I like the guests to walk through the doors and be transported to a different world. No detail is too trivial.

A nice benefit to the attraction industry is that you get to travel around the world to exotic locals. If there are any senior producers out there…Australia would be nice…hint…hint...nudge...nudge.
