About the client
The client is an American theater director, choreographer, performer, and entrepreneur. He has been involved in theatrical productions, concerts, operas, and special events worldwide.
Challenge
The process of documenting staging and choreography is tedious. Most musicals and productions use thousands of papers that need to be shared by others in the production (lighting designers, stage managers, dance captains, swings).
- Documentation Modifications & Maintenance
- Economics
- Environmental impact
Solution
In the first phase, i.e., the design phase, our Business Analysts, User Experience/User Interface (UX/UI) team collaboratively worked with the client and developed Click-Through-Mockups using the Axure prototyping tool.
The mockups transformed the product’s functional & aesthetic requirements into a working prototype.
The mockups allowed the client to “play” with the prototype and helped navigate the different workflows. This also enabled the client to freeze the requirements in the design phase & have a sense of what’s coming in the developed product.
In the development phase, the product was developed using Agile methodology with some functional features at the end of the two-week sprints.

Benefits
With this app, the stage manager, director, or choreographer can only enter the stage dimension once, create the actor icon once, and then easily drag the performer icons into the desired position. This method saves thousands of hours, and the final product is clean and easy to share.
The app enables performers to easily document choreography, spacing, traffic patterns, and movement for theatrical events and productions, as well as cheerleading and marching band formations. The app also enables users to create dynamic spacing charts, blocking books, and track the complex movements of all moving elements of a production, from staging and blocking to choreography.
