Artistry In Motion Merges With Pangolin Laser Systems: A New Chapter for Special Effects
For Release March 26, 2026:
For decades, Artistry In Motion has created the spectacle that turns a show into something people talk about for years — the custom confetti blast that makes a concert iconic, the streamer shots that crown champions and send graduating classes off in style, the special effects that deepen the immersion of a stage production. Today, we’re proud to announce our next big step: Artistry In Motion has merged with Pangolin Laser Systems — a partnership that brings together two companies who share the same obsession: creating unforgettable moments through special effects.
For our customers, the most important thing to know up front is this: nothing about the way you work with Artistry In Motion is changing. Same team, same products, same support. What is changing is what we can do with more resources behind us.
What This Means
Artistry In Motion continues to operate as it always has — from our Los Angeles facility, with the same design, production, sales, and support teams you already know and have worked with for years.
What Artistry In Motion gains is the backing of a larger group with deep roots in show technology. Pangolin Laser Systems has spent nearly 40 years setting the global standard for laser show technology, and that shared DNA — a love of the craft, a commitment to safety, and an obsession with the show — is what made this partnership make sense.
Why Now
From confetti finales on the world’s biggest tours to streamer moments in packed arenas, sports venues, and theme parks, Artistry In Motion has helped define what a live-event “wow” moment looks like. We’ve spent decades earning the trust of the production companies, touring artists, and event producers who rely on our effects to land night after night. Merging with Pangolin strengthens our long-term foundation, expands our resources for R&D, and gives our team and our customers a bigger platform to build on. It’s a move designed for the next generation of production designers, touring professionals, and event producers.
What We’re Excited About
Being part of a larger group unlocks even more potential:
• Accelerated R&D: More engineering bandwidth means faster development of the next generation of confetti, streamer, and special effects equipment.
• Improved logistics: Shared warehousing and shipping infrastructure will get product to customers and dealers faster.
• A broader special-effects toolkit: Artistry In Motion customers now sit inside a group that touches the wider world of show technology — including laser systems, control hardware, and software — opening collaboration opportunities that didn’t exist before.
• Long-term stability: A larger organization means Artistry In Motion’s products, support, and community are built to last for decades to come.
What Isn’t Changing
We want to be very clear about this part, because we know it’s what matters most:
• The Artistry In Motion brand, name, and products continue exactly as they are.
• Your existing orders, equipment, and warranties remain fully supported.
• Your reseller and direct customer relationships continue with the same people.
• Our commitment to event safety and product reliability — and to the standards we’ve championed — remains unchanged.
• The Artistry In Motion community is here to stay, from the events and shows we support to the long-standing relationships we’ve built over decades.
A Note From Joseph Wojcik, President of Artistry In Motion
“This is a defining moment for the special effects industry. For decades, Pangolin has set the global standard for laser show technology — the same way Artistry In Motion has set it for the broader world of confetti and related SFX products. Bringing these two companies together creates a unified group that can do more for customers, dealers, and the industry. We share the same values, the same commitment to engineering and safety, and the same belief that the special effects industry is just beginning to realize what’s possible. With combined R&D, shared manufacturing and logistics resources, and meaningful access to capital, we are positioned to deliver more, faster, and at a higher standard than ever before.”
A Note From Noah Winter, AIM Vice President of Operations
“As a longtime employee at Artistry In Motion and someone who has led our design and technology development, I’m excited to see this partnership with Pangolin Laser Systems come together. Combining our experience in special effects innovation with Pangolin’s industry-leading laser technology opens the door to incredible new creative possibilities for live entertainment worldwide. I believe this collaboration represents the future of live show production.”
Looking Ahead
We’ve got new products in the pipeline, fresh ideas we’re ready to invest in, and the renewed energy that comes with a new chapter. The same team that’s served you for years is here, now with more behind them. We can’t wait to show you what’s coming.
If you have questions, your usual Artistry In Motion contact is the best place to start, and they’ll have answers ready. And if there’s interest in laser show technology from Pangolin, reach out to our team and we’ll make a formal introduction.
As always, thank you for being part of the Artistry In Motion family, and joining us on this next chapter.
