About Treatment Studio

Treatment Studio is a multidisciplinary creative design and production practice working across live performance, immersive environments, theatre and art. Founded in 2008 by Willie Williams and Sam Pattinson, the studio brings digital media together with physical scenography, architectural staging and lighting. Its work spans concert touring, venue residencies, theatrical video design and large-scale installations, with production hubs in London and Los Angeles.

The practice develops projects from creative direction and concept development through screen content production, technical planning and on-site show integration. Its content capabilities encompass 2D and 3D animation, CGI, motion graphics and live-action production. Stagecraft and set design sit alongside technical direction, systems previsualization and playback sequencing, allowing screen imagery to be developed in relation to the space and performance around it.

Live performance and immersive environments

Large-format visual production is a central part of the studio’s work. Its projects include the ultra-high-resolution visual experience for U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere, followed by Dead & Company: Dead Forever and Metallica’s Life Burns Faster residency at the same venue. Its touring and residency portfolio also includes Adele, The Rolling Stones, Elton John, AC/DC, John Mayer, Pet Shop Boys and Queen + Adam Lambert.

The studio works across different performance settings, from arena and stadium concerts to festival stages and dedicated residency venues. Projects described in its portfolio include Adele in Munich, Weekends with Adele, Elton John’s 2023 Glastonbury headline performance and The Rolling Stones’ Hackney Diamonds Tour.

Theatre, culture and installations

Beyond music, Treatment’s work includes theatrical video design for Inter Alia and Prima Facie, collaborations with artist Es Devlin, and immersive exhibition environments such as The Blue Paradox. Its wider practice encompasses museum and gallery installations, architectural projection, national celebrations, fashion presentations and brand activations.

Across these formats, the studio combines visual content creation with the practical design and integration needed to present that content within a live or spatial experience.
