Cultural-tech and immersive experiences for museums, brands, and studios

Tampa Bay studio. Twelve years building permanent installations, virtual production, and live experiences — for places that have to get it right.

Trusted by museums, cultural institutions and national brands

What we make

Since 2013, Pixel Rain Digital has built immersive work for museums, cultural institutions, and brands.  Three kinds of work, one standard — it has to work in the real world: permanent museum installations engineered to run every day for years; in-camera virtual production on the LED Volume at Litewave Studios; and large-scale projection mapping for live events.

We take on the work where creative ambition and technical complexity meet — built to run reliably for years.
