We opened our shop in a small space. (Yes, that's the entire space.)
Steve Probus, a Disney Imagineer, gave us our first job in the theming industry.
We were on our way...

Scope of work...
We have produced entire projects from Concept to Completion but most of the time we collaborate with other teams on pieces/parts of an overall project. We're just as happy either way.
How did we come up with the name?
We get asked all the time: "How did you come up with the name White Sword Theming?"
Our target audience is theme parks, theme restaurants, theme residences (and other businesses with themed environments). The themes, attractions, rides, and live entertainment are typically based on classic literature, stories, tales, fables, folklore, and other fictional accounts - centered around Good vs Evil.
On the one hand there is Good - creatures, heroes, and white magic.
On the other there is Evil - beasts, villains, and dark magic.
The Good was represented by lighter colors and the Evil was represented by darker colors.
This is where the White in White Sword Theming comes from - the Good, the Hero.
There were kings and queens, princes and princesses on either side of Good and Evil. And, of course, where there's a realm, whether it be good or evil, there were knights who protected it.
We relate to the knights - you know, the good ones - the ones whose integrity and fortitude only stopped at death, whose valor became the subject of songs that would be sung for generations, whose steadfastness was pure and genuine. The knight's tool is the sword.
This is where the Sword in White Sword Theming comes from.
So... We are White Sword Theming - the hero protectors of the good realm. Or, perhaps, better stated as: the Good Themers.
What we do
We have the capability to be part of your project from its concept development through to its installation or we can jump in/out at any stage along the way. We'll be wherever you'd like us to be as a participant in your project.
01.
Concept Development
This process determines the "What" is to be built or we use your already developed concept
02.
Design for Fabrication
This process determines the "How" it is to be built or we can use your already developed plans
03.
Custom Fabrication
This process is building the "What" from the Concept Phase based on the "How" from the Design for Fabrication Phase
04.
Installation
This process is getting the stuff we've built to the location and attaching it to the space
05.
Show Sets & Set Pieces
We can build the entire set, fabricate or modify props, and produce other components that will be included in the set
08.
Prototype Development
Prototypes help to determine if the practical part works as well as it was designed to
