Tour visuals for DJs and electronic artists

MELT EVERYTHING creates custom concert visuals, timecoded show content, and live VJ packages for DJs and electronic artists. We build around your music, stage design, and LED layouts so the visual identity can travel from club dates to festival stages.

Touring Experience

Built for headline shows and touring stages

Steve Aoki · Aokify America

Visual direction, content design, and live VJ performance for the 2013 North American run. The project documents adaptation across clubs, theatres, civic auditoriums, arenas, and amphitheatres, with artist-specific LED looks and touring scenic architecture.

Adventure Club · When Darkness Falls

An 18-city U.S. tour in 2015 with a scalable cityscape of moving 8mm LED elements. MELT’s documented scope includes stage design, creative direction, animation, custom mapping, and live VJ operation; the case study preserves the collaborators and production credits.

Life in Color · Kingdom

Three scalable versions of the international touring stage, integrating scenic architecture, lighting, video, animation, show programming, and on-site VJ operation. The project describes international advancing and the logistics of moving scenic elements between countries.

Sidepiece · Timecoded festival content

Track-specific show videos for international festival dates and large LED canvases, with lyric, render, loop, and supporting asset passes. The project documents the content handoff and intended playback use.

Production Planning

Scope the full show, then define MELT’s role

For a headline tour, start with the set list, creative direction, stage renders, LED maps, routing, rehearsal dates, and production contacts. MELT EVERYTHING can develop the visual identity and content package, with stage design, programming, and live operation scoped to the production.

Agree the deliverables for each screen configuration, timecoded and live-operated moments, revisions, and playback tests. Identify who supplies hardware, who programs the media servers, and who signs off the show-ready content. Crew availability, travel, and operator coverage are confirmed against the actual dates.

The Package

A visual system built around your set

Creative direction and content

Define the visual language around the artist, release, or set. The agreed package can include logo animation, song-specific sequences, loops, transitions, and overlays, with revision rounds and delivery dates set before production.

Designed for your screens

Share the stage renders and LED pixel maps before animation begins. Confirm canvas dimensions, frame rate, codec, alpha requirements, and playback system with the tour team; those specifications determine the final exports.

Production & Handoff

Plan the show before the final render

Timecoded or performed live

Choose fixed sequences for tightly synchronized moments, flexible clips for live VJ performance, or a combination. Confirm who owns playback programming, timecode, and show operation before production starts.

Tour adaptations and testing

List the known screen configurations and identify who will prepare additional versions when a venue changes. Agree on a playback test, review deadline, file naming, and delivery folder structure with the receiving operator.

Scope and crew

Content creation, stage design, programming, travel, and on-site operation are separate responsibilities to agree in the brief. Share the dates and locations so MELT can confirm the scope and crew availability for your show.

Questions

FAQ

What is included in a DJ tour visual package?

A tour visual package can include logo animations, loops, drops, transitions, timecoded content, VJ-ready clips, LED mapping references, and social or release content.

Can MELT create visuals for an existing stage or LED spec?

Yes. MELT can design content around provided stage renders, LED maps, pixel dimensions, lighting notes, and show control requirements.

Do artist visuals need to be timecoded?

Not always. Some shows need timecoded moments, while others work best as flexible VJ content that can be performed live with the artist.
