School AV Systems — Madison, WI
Production Studio 29 designs and installs professional AV systems for every space on campus — durable, staff-operable, and built around how your school actually works.
In the classroom, that means interactive displays, projectors, and audio that keep students engaged and teachers in control without needing a technician to run them.
In the gymnasium, it means intelligible PA audio that carries clearly over crowd noise and activity — sized for your space and built to hold up through years of daily use.
In the auditorium, it means complete audio, video, and lighting systems that perform for assemblies, graduations, and performances, and that your staff can run confidently without outside help.
Why Schools Choose Us
AV systems in schools need to be durable, simple to operate, and built to last — not just impressive on installation day.
Schools have AV needs that change by the hour — a classroom display needs to work reliably every period, a gymnasium PA needs to handle everything from morning announcements to playoff games, and an auditorium system needs to perform for a kindergarten play and a graduation ceremony in the same week.
At Production Studio 29, we design systems around your actual staff — the teacher who needs to switch inputs without calling IT, the coach who needs to make announcements over crowd noise, and the drama director who needs to run a full sound and lighting system with student volunteers. Every system we install is designed to be operated confidently by the people who will use it every day.
We're locally owned and operated in Madison, Wisconsin, with over 15 years of experience serving schools, churches, and organizations across Dane County and beyond. Free consultations and no-pressure quoting are standard on every project.
Locally owned, Madison based
You work directly with us. Every site visit, every decision, every follow-up is handled personally.
Systems designed for your staff
Every system is designed with your actual operators in mind — teachers, coaches, and administrators who don't have time for complicated workflows.
Commercial-grade equipment
We specify equipment rated for high-use institutional environments — not consumer gear that won't survive a school year.
Scalable systems
We design with future expansion in mind, so upgrading a space or scaling to a new building doesn't require starting over.

AVL System Integration - Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of AV systems do you install for schools? A: We install classroom video and audio systems (interactive displays, projectors, teacher microphone systems), gymnasium PA systems, and complete auditorium AVL (sound, video, and lighting). We also install video conferencing systems for conference rooms and hybrid learning environments.
Q: How much does a school AV system cost in Wisconsin? A: Costs vary based on scope and space. A single classroom display and audio system typically runs $1,500–$5,000. A gymnasium PA system ranges from $4,000–$12,000 depending on room size. A full auditorium AVL system can range from $15,000–$60,000+. We provide detailed, itemized quotes after a free site assessment — no guesswork.
Q: Will installation disrupt school hours? A: No. We schedule all installation work around your academic calendar — during winter, spring, or summer breaks, on weekends, or after school hours. We plan the timeline with your administration so there's zero impact on instruction or school events.
Q: Can teachers operate the systems without IT support? A: That's exactly how we design them. We build systems around the people who will use them every day — teachers who have 90 seconds between classes, coaches who need to make announcements mid-event, drama directors running sound with student volunteers. Simple, reliable, and intuitive is our standard.
Q: Do you work with school districts for multi-building projects? A: Yes. We work with school districts on phased, multi-building projects and can design systems that are standardized across campuses for easier staff training and maintenance. Contact us to discuss your district's scope and timeline.
Q: Do you service schools outside of Madison, WI? A: Yes. We serve schools throughout Wisconsin. We're based in Madison and serve all of Dane County, but we travel for projects across the state. Milwaukee, Green Bay, and surrounding communities are all within our service area.
