Stage Staging is an art in itself. Every detail, from the layout of the elements to the finishing touches, contributes to creating a memorable experience for attendees. In this process, customised stages and professional finishes, in all kinds of materials, for example gloss melamine finishes for corporate or TV sets, play a key role. Throughout this text, we will explore the essential keys to achieve a successful stage set-up, especially designed for corporate events.

Keys to a successful stage staging

  1. Design and Creative Planning

The first step in staging is the design and planning phase. In corporate events, creativity is fundamental to highlight and transmit the identity of the company. Customised stages are essential to achieve this goal. The message to be conveyed and the target audience must be considered in order to tailor the stage design effectively.

  1. Versatility and Modularity

Versatility and modularity are key when setting up stages for corporate events. Customised stages must be adaptable to different spaces and audience sizes. The ease of adaptation of wood, floating platforms, carpets and other types of finishes to any design provided by the client is key to the success of the event. 

  1. Choice of Quality Materials

Professional stage finishes are essential to achieve a polished, high quality appearance. One of these stage finishes can be melamine, due to its scratch resistance, durability and easy cleaning, making it an ideal choice for corporate events where image and presentation are paramount. Within the carpet catalogue there is also the option of choosing carpets with customised colours to highlight the brand image of the event, or even printed with designs provided by creative agencies.

  1. Technology Integration

In modern corporate events, technology plays a crucial role. Stages must be equipped with state-of-the-art lighting, sound and projection systems. Melamine lends itself well to the integration of these elements, as it can effectively hide cables and connections while maintaining a clean and professional appearance.

  1. Customisation of Stage Elements

Details make all the difference in stage design. Melamine allows for the customisation of elements such as panels, supports and surfaces, providing the opportunity to incorporate company logos, graphics or event-specific designs, strengthening brand identity.

  1. Security and Compliance

Safety is a fundamental consideration when setting up stages. It is essential to ensure that all elements are properly secured and comply with safety regulations. At Octo Event Productions we work with certified rosco and layher platforms to ensure that any stage or platform set up is carried out in the best way and under the established safety regulations.

  1. Efficient Logistics

Logistics is key to the success of the assembly of stages for corporate events. The selection of transport with their respective lifting ramps, and the arrangement of the stages by blocks on wheels is fundamental for their efficient handling and distribution in the space where the event is going to take place.

 Pre-production and logistical preparation in this type of corporate event is fundamental, especially in events that require quick set-up and dismantling due to the normally very tight deadlines for set-up and rehearsal before the start of the show.

  1. Coordination and Communication

Effective coordination between the different teams involved in stage assembly is essential. Clear communication and collaboration between designers, technicians, and material suppliers is essential to ensure that the stage is assembled as planned and conforms to the desired quality standards.

  1. Pruebas y Revisión

Antes de la inauguración del evento, es importante realizar pruebas y revisiones exhaustivas en los detalles y los acabados del escenario o plataforma. Esto incluye verifica la seguridad de la estructura y la calidad de los acabados, ya sean maderas, moquetas, linóleos, tarima flotante, etc. Cualquier problema debe ser abordado y resuelto antes de que los invitados lleguen al evento.

  1. Evaluación Post-Evento

Una vez que el evento ha concluido, es esencial realizar una evaluación post-evento para identificar áreas de mejora. Esta retroalimentación es valiosa para futuros eventos corporativos y para perfeccionar el arte del montaje de escenarios.

En resumen, el montaje de escenarios para eventos corporativos es una disciplina que requiere creatividad, planificación meticulosa y atención a los detalles. Los escenarios personalizados y los acabados profesionales en melamina, linóleos, vinilos, etc. desempeñan un papel crucial en la creación de una experiencia memorable y de alta calidad. Al seguir estas claves y aprovechar al máximo los beneficios de cada uno de los acabados, las empresas pueden asegurarse de que sus eventos corporativos sean un éxito y reflejen de manera efectiva su identidad de marca.
