Design Review & Expansion
Wednesday, August 20th, 2025
We at Ingalls & Co. happily announce substantial progress across all three divisions as Stage 01 enters design review phase in Euclid, Ohio. The company has expanded operations through Tape 30's active production schedule and launched the Simple Suite software division, while progress continues on Cleveland's premier 15,000 square foot sound stage.
Creative Spaces Advances to Design Review
Stage 01, the company's flagship 15,000 square foot sound stage on E219th Street in Euclid,has entered the design review phase. Our engineering partners Neff & Associates and our architectural partners Rakauskas Architecture and Lobas Architects are preparing detailed plans for company approval, which we will then submit to the city for final build authorization. The facility will meet all major studio production standards with 30-foot minimum clear heights and industry-standard 400 amp company switches with 35 watts per square foot in total power. The stage will provide an acoustically isolated environment suitable for productions ranging from commercial campaigns to episodic television and feature films. Future phases include on-site mill workshop, production design warehouse, and additional sound stages on our 4.32-acre campus, located 15 minutes from downtown Cleveland.
Tape 30's Audience Grows
Tape 30, our media production division, has commenced active operations with a series of music videos for Cleveland artist Conor Michael Smith. The team has already wrapped the productions for "Inside Out," "It'll be Alright," and "Sunset," with "Wriglyville" currently in development.
Software Division
Ingalls & Co. has additionally now established Simple Suite as its third operational division, developing filmmaking software solutions built on principles of power, simplicity, and beauty. SimpleStrips, an integrated stripboard, call sheet, and breakdown tool, is currently undergoing internal testing through Tape 30, with SimpleShots, a shot list and storyboard software, in early development.
Community is Core
Following the Carnegie principle that industrial enterprise owes its achievements to the community that sustains it, we have continued to grow our Preferred Vendors Network to connect productions with Cleveland's finest service providers. Local partnerships will ensure that Greater Cleveland's businesses, educational institutions, and skilled workforce share directly in the prosperity that comprehensive production infrastructure creates.
