Lighting Design Group Expands European Operations to Meet Global Broadcast Demand

The Lighting Design Group, an Emmy Award-winning leader in broadcast lighting design, has officially expanded its operations into the United Kingdom and broader European market. This strategic move brings the company's full-service capabilities, creative leadership, and 35-year legacy of excellence to new partners and productions throughout Europe. The expansion addresses rising demand for high-quality, global-ready broadcast production across news, sports, and entertainment sectors.

LDG's extensive global track record includes major international projects such as studio launches, live sporting events including the Olympics, and high-profile religious events such as papal transfers. The company's expansion builds upon this legacy, positioning it to serve the growing European broadcast market with world-class lighting design and production support services. According to Steve Brill, President of LDG, the company is entering the UK and Europe with intention rather than hesitation, recognizing that clients producing content for international audiences require lighting partners who understand the scale, complexity, and speed of global production.

The company offers a comprehensive suite of broadcast lighting services including broadcast lighting for national news studios and international sports coverage, corporate broadcast studio design and installation for Fortune 500 companies, remote and live event lighting for red carpet events and world summits, and systems integration services encompassing lighting infrastructure design and control systems engineering. LDG's in-house team includes top designers, Emmy-winning creatives, engineers, gaffers, and production support specialists, all supported by 24/7 client service and a hands-on operations team.

Dennis Size, Executive Vice President of Design at LDG, emphasized that lighting represents a language that the company speaks fluently, designing light that shapes mood, enhances storytelling, and delivers consistency across every frame. The European expansion extends beyond creative reach to include operational readiness, with local lighting design crews and dedicated partners across the UK and Europe enabling LDG to launch new projects on demand while maximizing budget efficiency. The operations team delivers seamless, turnkey solutions across borders and time zones through world-class local teams, end-to-end equipment logistics, best-in-class crewing support, and an international network of trusted local production partners.

Sheryl Wisniewski, Vice President of Operations, noted that LDG has built its operations to be global-ready, ensuring consistent quality, streamlined deployment, and complete integration with partners whether they're producing nightly news programs in London or live sports events in Milan. The expansion represents significant implications for the European broadcast industry, potentially raising production standards and providing local productions access to Emmy Award-winning lighting expertise previously limited to North American markets.
