Brandon Wade

Brandon Wade has earned his own desirable reputation through consistent hard work, great leadership, and creative design. Brandon has been behind the desk with his father since he could walk, watching and observing.  His early exposure to the entertainment industry and the great designers he met all through those years has fostered a love of music and production design.

The summer of 2017 Brandon was presented the opportunity to tour with Paul McCartney for the summer as a lighting technician.  Though he was offered an additional three months due to his work ethic, his commitment to his degree led him back to the University of Oklahoma to continue his education.  Brandon would continue to work during breaks, weekends and whenever he could to get the most experience available.  During his five years at OU he worked multiple positions with Foreigner, TLC, Nelly, Flo Rida, WWE in Saudi Arabia (Jeddah and Riyadh), ESPN Top Rank, Cleveland Cavaliers, Usher, Eric Clapton’s Crossroads, and Stadium of Fire Utah featuring Keith Urban. During the Covid Pandemic, he continued his education while helping to develop UVC lighting disinfection products.  In the summer of 2020, he went into a Top Rank sports “bubble” to bring sports back to the air as Lighting Director and programmer.

In May of 2021, Brandon graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a BFA in Drama, theatre design, emphasis lighting design. Brandon has worked non-stop since graduation with the following artists and events; John Mayer, Janet Jackson, Lionel Ritchie, TLC, Swedish House Mafia, Top Rank Boxing, Nitro Circus at the Stadium of Fire Festival and the Cleveland Cavaliers.  His versatility across the industry runs deep: Lighting Designer, Lighting Director, Lighting Programmer, Media Programmer, Camera Operator, LED Tech, and Lighting Tech.
