🎤 Q&A with Brian, owner of BLC Entertainment 🎤

1. What was your first gig as BLC Entertainment?

Before BLC was an official business, we did a lot of work with Wright State University, local theaters, and high schools. One of our first events was a campus event at Wright State University.

2. What organization have you worked with the longest?

Wright State University. BLC has worked with Wright State University ArtsGala for twenty years, plus dozens of Welcome Week activities and events like Raiderthon and award banquets around campus.

We also have a great partnership with the The Dayton Art Institute. We are involved in their big annual events like Art Ball, Oktoberfest, and Bourbon & Bubbles. We've worked with Dayton Children's Hospital since they opened their patient tower in 2017 on galas, press events, and dedications. Carillon Historical Park and the Gala of Hope Foundation are a couple of other organizations we've consistently worked with over the years.

3. What are your favorite events to work?

An event where I have to think outside the box and create something unique, for example, turning an empty warehouse into an elegant gala.

4. What is your favorite piece of tech in the warehouse right now?

The Fuel Light also known as a pinspot. It's a versatile, battery-powered magnetic light that can be used to highlight focal points like centerpieces or ice sculptures, but we use it to add extra light coverage for bars and buffet lines.

5. Do you have any memorable design requests from a client?

The client had a vision of their event being in the round. At the time, this layout had never been done at the Dayton Arcade before. We designed the space with a custom stage in the center of the Rotunda surrounded by lighting and video elements.

In celebration of our anniversary, we sat down with BLC Entertainment owner Brian Cox🎤 And, before he answers our questions, we thought an introduction was in order.

Brian's passion for lighting and sound was evident when he was a just a kid. He often asked for various pieces of equipment for his birthdays. He was in drama club in high school and went on to earn a degree in Design and Technology from WSU.

Throughout his youth, Brian worked seasonally with companies in Cleveland such as Hughie's AV and Vincent Lighting Systems. He also has worked with IATSE Local 66 doing theatre and concert calls.

After graduating, Brian started BLC Entertainment as a lighting company but has facilitated its growth into a full-service production company providing lighting, audio, video, venue support, staging, rentals, and crowd control solutions.

Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his wife, visiting family in Cleveland, and playing darts.

Follow along to see Brian's answers to our questions!
