Events are chaos
The budget’s blown. The vendor doesn’t show.
Everything collapses. Everyone watches.
I’m Tome Wilson, and I know what it's like when you depend on everything going right.
I started in agencies, with twelve years producing campaigns for blue-chips like Disney, Comcast, and Subaru. It taught me how to manage chaos. $1.5M budgets. Dozens of vendors. The money, the timelines, the stakeholders who all wanted different things…
Then I went corporate at Comcast, designing activations and leading conferences with 15,000 attendees. Keynote speakers updated requirements two days out. CEOs, CTOs, and CSOs counted time in seconds, not hours. Critical technology needed to work for audiences around the world, even during the pandemic.
I keep events running when everything tries to break.
When senior leadership asked me to scale another event to 13 countries in under a year, I negotiated with international teams I’d never met, managed budgets across global markets, and coordinated 60 hours of content in nine time zones. It grew from a one-day hybrid event into a week-long international series without a hitch.
I know what creative ownership really takes.
In 2015, I built a 4D theater from the ground up featuring live immersive entertainment.
By running my own venue, I learned what it meant to be responsible for every detail. The P&L. The audience experience. The glitches five minutes before doors open. Today, I operate Friends of Autumn, an immersive event series with critical acclaim and 94% guest retention.
When your reputation’s on the line, you don't get to cut corners.
That's the standard I bring to every project. Clients demand perfection and guests expect magic.
I can manage the chaos. I can create the magic.
Now I'm looking for my next creative home.
