LOS ANGELES– After over a decade of exporting scenic goods and design services to the West Coast, Atomic has opened an additional location in Los Angeles. Team Atomic is out-of-this-world excited to join their West Coast clients and friends and bring its brand of scenic design, fabrication, modular renting and lighting to a local home base.
The expansion comes on the heels of Atomic’s recent involvement with NBC’s The Sing Off, The Emmy Awards, and the annual Black and White Ball in San Francisco.
“We are so excited about our opening in Los Angeles!” says Soren West, Atomic president. “We are honored to feel the demand for our products and services from our West Coast and Las Vegas friends. Collaborating with many more creative pros is the goal and we know Los Angeles will give us that opportunity.”
Atomic’s list of capabilities has organically expanded from the moment designer Tom McPhillips started up the reactors in 1993. While working on sets for touring and live entertainment including Live By Request, The VMAs and Michael Jackson, McPhillips needed a custom scenic paint and soft goods shop so he jumped in head-first and started fabricating.
Today, at more than 70 employees, the group has grown to include carpentry, metal and plastic fabrication. Their growing inventory of playful, off-beat, modular solutions led them to establish a dedicated rental team headed up by Rob Barber, General Manager. Next came Atomic Lighting with industry stand-outs Brad Hafer and Brett Puwalski, who have built a thriving full service company with an extensive inventory of gear and lighting.
Atomic’s clients are thrilled about the expansion. Kathy Theis, President at Anthill Productions in Pasadena, CA, says, “Having Atomic close at hand is great; we love that Atomic is coming west. My colleagues and I get on the phone and drool over the website all the time.”
Much of Rental’s inventory, including the latest hot product, Modular SuperLever, is already making its way west. Rachel Finn, Account Manager, is standing by in LA to assist clients.
