Samsung’s New Transparent MICRO LED Screen

Transparent MICRO LED Screens

In January, 2024 Samsung released its newest innovation yet: the Transparent MICRO LED screen. Imagine being able to see right through the screen to whatever’s on the other side. With this amazing technology, you get vibrant images and stunning colors without losing any clarity. It’s a game-changer compared to the older Transparent OLEDs, which are darker and less sharp. Get ready for a whole new viewing experience!

Indoor Drone Light Show Event Tech

Indoor Drone Light Shows

Ready to swap out those outdoor fireworks for something even more spectacular? Try an indoor drone show! These shows are an audio-visual extravaganza that will dazzle your audience with vibrant colors, dynamic motion, and breathtaking designs. Unlike outdoor shows, indoor drone light shows aren’t limited by weather or time of day. There are no FAA laws for indoor drones, so they can fly over and around a crowd to create an immersive experience unlike any other! Plus, you can further customize the show by pairing it with awesome background music! For an average price of about $25,000 the experience is well worth the price tag. It’s a safe and unforgettable way to make your event shine and leave your crowd “oohing” and “ahhing.”

Digital Water Printers

Get ready for some splash-tastic fun with digital water printers! These interactive water displays create stunning falling images using touchable water droplets. How does it work? At the top, a bunch of tiny holes let water flow through, controlled electronically to form amazing patterns and pictures as the droplets fall. The water then collects at the bottom and gets pumped back up to start the show all over again. It’s an eye-catching, customizable decoration that’s perfect for any event and guaranteed to wow your audience! 

LED Foil Technology

Introducing IllumiWrap™ powered by LightnTec—the lightweight, ultra-thin LED foil that can do it all! This innovative product easily attaches to any structure with Velcro®, making setup a breeze. Whether indoors or outdoors, IllumiWrap™ shines bright because it’s weatherproof. Need a custom shape? No problem! You can customize it to fit your creative vision. Installation is a snap with its plug-and-play system, so no need for complex substructures—saving you time, money, and hassle. It’s no wonder IllumiWrap™ won Best of Show at the InfoComm 2024 awards in the Digital Sign category! 

And there you have it! From Transparent MICRO LED screens to indoor drone light shows, digital water printers, and IllumiWrap™ LED foil, the future of audio-visual production is brighter and more exciting than ever. At Heroic Productions, we’re passionate about bringing these innovations to life for your events, ensuring they are memorable, impactful, and truly one-of-a-kind.

X Games Party – Maxim & Indian Motorcycles

Aria, Minneapolis

Maxim Magazine and Indian Motorcycles threw an exclusive “by invitation only” party at Aria during a recent edition of the X Games here in Minneapolis, and Heroic was there with over-the-top lighting and audio. We’ve put together a fun, time-lapse video of the set up and included images of some of the incredible motorcycles that were also on display at the party. What a night!

2019 MN ILEA Star Awards

2019 MN ILEA Star Awards

The 15th annual MN ILEA Star Awards highlighted the incredible work of this year’s Star Award nominees and showcased the best and brightest in MInnesota’s event world. 2019’s reception/awards and after-party were held at the Renaissance Minneapolis Hotel – The Depot.

As a Platinum Production Sponsor, our intent was to deliver an “over-the-top” AV experience, and everyone at Heroic jumped in to make that happen. With thematic, mood-setting lighting, dynamic LED scenic banners, an LED wall, and an LED podium (all from our ContentCanvas™ family), and crisp-clean audio, attendee response indicated mission accomplished!

For us, the highlight of the evening was being presented with an ILEA Star Award for “Best Technical Production” for our work at 2018 Super Bowl LIVE on Nicollet Mall in Minneapolis. (All awards were judged by independent ILEA chapters from outside Minnesota.) Congratulations to everyone involved in the planning and execution of Star Awards. It was truly an awesome event for all that attended!
