Audio, Video, Lighting Design and Consulting for Theater, Churches and Events

Hi there! Kirk Longhofer here. It’s nice to meet you!
I’m a freelance sound designer, producer, and audio guy, based in the heart of the Midwest, with a wide background in event production, live video direction, and a whole lot of other things, all related to using technology to create memorable experience. Most of the time you can find me behind a sound console, or a video switcher, of in front of a computer playing with sounds and visuals in support of a play or musical or some other event. I particularly enjoy helping theatres and churches and other organizations make good decisions as they invest in sound, lighting and video in performance and other gathering spaces.
