Theme Parks
Friends and families embark on an immersive exploration of imaginary worlds each time they pass through the gates of a theme park. The ever growing list of practical and creative demands on operators and designers often leads to compromises. MixMap specializes in finding harmonies between business requirements of a modern theme park and exceeding guest expectations.
Escape Rooms
This is an exciting time to design, build, play escape rooms as they transform from reliance on formulaic tropes to the development of rich original worlds. MixMap focuses on incorporating ideas and inspiration from more established forms of themed entertainment into mid-scale interactive experiences.
Experience Design
We work with our clients and partners to design and build unique experiences that surprise and delight, sparking your guests’ imaginations.
Creative Direction
Akiva excels at leading multidisciplinary teams thanks to his expertise in a wide range of technical and creative domains. He has led collaborative teams on complex projects ranging from concept attractions to stage plays and immersive restaurants.
Illusion Invention
With over a decade of experience developing and inventing show effects and illusions based on cutting edge technology and a deep understanding of stage craft, the MixMap team can help you develop special effects that seem to defy physics and reason.
Game & Puzzle Prototyping
Even the best game and puzzle concepts are risky until they’ve been play-tested. Rapid prototypes for themed entertainment require sufficient technology to emulate the intended experience without blowing the budget. MixMap develops gameplay and tech prototypes for escape room puzzles, action arcades, and interactive exhibits.
Technical Integration
We design custom system architectures that fit the needs of our clients’ projects and ensure guests and operators have a seamless experience.
MixMap is for humans and by humans.
