A decade of shared craft, bold ideas, and experiences made with clients and partners we call our friends. Excited to be part of the team that brought Adobe Summit to life, and this year was one of the best yet.

At Adobe Summit 2026 in Las Vegas, top innovators in marketing, digital experience, and customer engagement gathered to explore the future of the industry. Working in close collaboration with PIX PRODUCTIONS and Adobe, PDS created a stunning opening video experience that opened the main Keynote. Our glassy, holographic visuals filled the room with gorgeous spectacle, garnering wonder and amazement from a crowd of roughly 14,000 cheering attendees. We love a good crowd.

Check out the opener for @adobe SUMMIT 2026 Day 1!

Hard to believe we’re here for our TENTH year with our Adobe friends for Adobe Summit.

@pixprods & @prettydamnsweetagram have collabed with the Adobe team on every opening motion graphic video for the main stage Keynote over the last 10 years. Utilizing a wide berth of graphic techniques for each video, each one holds its own. We have the best team in the business, and the majority of our incredible entire PIX Production team has been working together with our Adobe friends for the last decade and counting.

We'll be sharing a recap of how these openers have evolved over the past decade. If you're planning a keynote or hybrid event, this is where production decisions start to matter. We're happy to share how we approach it.

Together with our friends at PIX PRODUCTIONS and Adobe, we crafted this beautiful opening film for MAX 2025 which played across massive screens at the Peacock Theater in DTLA. The success of immersive media is measured not only by the beauty of the art, but also by the feeling it has for the audience. Blending a variety of techniques from our talented artists, we set out to create a spectacle of light and sound that broke the bounds of typical presentation media to create a multi-screen immersive theatrical experience.

We absolutely love working on these shows. Thanks to PIX and Adobe for another amazing collaboration.
