Benjamin Heston
ABOUT
My name is Benjamin Heston, and I am an audiovisual technician, designer, and engineer. I've worked professionally on live shows since 2010, dazzling audiences with a broad range of experiences ranging from live theatre, circus, venue installations, corporate events, church services, concerts, film festivals, trade shows, and dance exhibitions. I am a creative artisan and I passionately make live venues my canvas. Currently, I load in and strike musicals, trade shows, expos, and occasionally I help out CMT when they record a special. Thanks for checking in. I really look forward to working behind the scenes with you soon. Enjoy
