Tired of daisy-chaining racks and untangling wiring nightmares? Sub-positioning might just be your golden ticket. This compartmentalized approach to display design keeps things cleaner, smarter, and way more efficient on setup day.

While tools like FINALE3D Pro offer one-click convenience, they’re not always in the budget. The beauty of sub-positioning? It’s a flexible concept you can apply to almost any design software. Sure, some programs make it easier than others, but no matter your toolkit, putting in the extra planning up front will pay off big for you—and your crew.

In this episode of the RHYTHM Pyro Podcast, Bo and AJ break down how field sub-positioning works and how it can streamline your workflow for faster, more organized setups.

As designers, we obsess over product selection, performance analysis, and choreography...but somehow, color still gets the short end of the fuse. It's borderline criminal how often we overlook the impact of intentional color use in shaping the emotional and aesthetic power of a show.

In this episode, AJ and Bo dive in to color, giving you a practical, design-ready guide to harnessing it like a pro. You'll learn where to find the right color tools, how to apply them, and why your site picture will never look the same once you do. They also revisit standout displays from the past, breaking down real-world examples of color harmony that elevated the entire experience.

Murica...f*ck yah...

Red, White, and Blue themed effects are the reason for the season and as pyromusical designers, we need to be able to identify the good stuff, and know how to use it in context within our designs.

Jamie, DEN, and Bo toss out a few of their favorite RWB 1.4 & 1.4 Pro effects and thoughts on what makes them solid performers relative to seasonal pyro shows.

FIIRREEEBALLLLL...Bo, AJ, and Jamie sit down with Jim Sakaley of Phoenix Pyrotechnics and Bill Corbett from the Fireball Dudes to talk about their upcoming offical/unofficial world record attempt in northeastern Ohio: a fireball show using up to 3-4,000 gallons of gasoline. Set to ignite during the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals, this isn’t just any display—it’s a full-scale wall of heat and flame choreographed pyro for maximum impact.

We dig into the logistics, safety protocols, and pure insanity behind orchestrating the largest gasoline-based fireball show in history. From mushroom cloud dreams to painting your dad bod to go down in history, you’ll hear how these pyro veterans are turning a public event into a record-breaking inferno. Now...hold my gas can...
