ALL CUSTOM DESIGNED CHARTING

Every drill design is customized for each band based on their goals, skill level desired, orchestration needs, specific color guard staging and percussion placement. the instrumental staging for optimum sound production with balance is the essential driving force in all ‘Nstep designs. being an experienced percussionist and a color guard choreographer helps me to give your show a coordinated total design feel throughout.

All design work is done on pyware 3d and can be structured, as you need to fit your program. charts can be delievered to you by email (if you have pyware) or mailed in an 8 ½” x 14” laminated format with count sheets, detailed instructions and wind choreographic cues. also, for an additional fee custom choreography can be added at any skill level from beginner to world class & flag, uniform and prop design services are also available.

‘NSTEP DESIGNS contracts to a limited number of elite bands each year with deposits paid by the end of april to secure your design spot. then you supply orchestration numbers, scores, percusssion scores, color guard staging preferences and concept ideas as soon as possible for a 10-14 day turnaround through july 4th to 14-20 turnaround through the rest of the summer. a design formula is utilized to calculate your design costs ranging from 1900 to 3500 dollars based on the complexity and length of your programming. quality design, on time delievery, specific instructions, professional follow-up and free video evaluations throughout the season are all part of your ‘nstep experience.
