Film & TV Pyrotechnic Services
Practical Explosion Effects
Controlled detonations, fireballs, and blast effects designed for camera. Our pyrotechnicians work directly with your director of photography to ensure every explosion is framed, timed, and safe for cast and crew.
Gunfire & Muzzle Flash
Realistic muzzle flash, bullet hits, and squib effects for action sequences. We supply and operate all devices, ensuring compliance with SAG-AFTRA and Texas safety regulations on every set.
Aerial & Background Fireworks
Large-scale aerial displays used as background elements for exterior shots, establishing sequences, and climactic scenes. Fully choreographed and repeatable for multiple takes.
Atmospheric & Smoke Effects
Colored smoke, atmospheric haze, and low-lying fog effects that add depth and drama to any scene. Ideal for music videos, commercials, and narrative productions.
Fire Gags & Burn Effects
Controlled burn effects including fire trails, burning vehicles, and structural fire elements. All fire gags are executed by licensed pyrotechnicians with full safety protocols and fire suppression on standby.
Cold Spark & Stage Effects
Indoor-safe cold spark machines, gerbs, and sparkle fountains for studio productions, music videos, and live broadcast events. No open flame — safe for enclosed sets and talent proximity.
Standby Pyrotechnician Services
A licensed pyrotechnician on set for the duration of your shoot — available to advise, supervise, and respond to any pyrotechnic or fire-related situation. Required by many productions for insurance and compliance, and invaluable for keeping your cast and crew safe.
