As an Audio / Electronic Engineer with more than 30 years in the business and the past 20 years dedicated to the AV industry, there are not too many event styles that Rod hasn’t technically produced, operated or both.

From multi-site broadcasts for major corporate brands, concerts in the round to discrete or world-famous fashion events.  Rod‘s pride and passion in delivering Audio and Vision systems into one coherent design is both evident in his management style and his team.

Since 2005 with the launch of Austage Events Melbourne, Rod has been instrumental in the company. As General Manager now, he believes wholeheartedly in creating beautiful events. He rallies his team with this one belief.

Outside of work, Rod enjoys time with his family and friends, home renovating and still loves mixing bands.

As a bright eyed 15 year old, Matt did the lights for his first school play. And from there, he has never looked back.

Now with a respectable audio visual career spanning 2 decades, Matt has worked on everything. Including annual general meetings, car launches to international sporting events with everything in between. Combining his vast knowledge and experience in production but also his cool and calm demeanour no matter what will deliver an amazing event every single time. Because of this, Matt is one of our clients’ favourites.

When Matt isn’t working, you can find him watching Richmond Tigers play, spending time with his family or trying to squeeze in a run.
