Rick Preston

Founder/President

Rick started Preston Productions with the goal of bringing his training in theatrical production to the corporate arena. Rick enjoys directing presenters to push their boundaries and thus, succeed in delivering their message. His strength is directing leaders to present, live or on video, in a manner that is commensurate with their position. “If you are a CEO, I’m going to make sure you present the right message with the confidence and poise of a CEO.”

With extensive experience in dramatic theater and a passion for directing, Rick is able to bring theatrical discipline to a corporate meeting and, for an act or two, transform corporate communications into a real show.

In addition to being a true “theater nerd”, Rick is an avid pilot. His expert advice and thorough coaching never too far away!

Wayne Jackson

Executive Producer/Director of Production

Coming from a background in large-scale awards shows, Wayne leads the design and production team for all our events. From the start of a project to the very end, Wayne is directing the event’s concept; making sure that the message and the audience are brought together in the most effective and efficient way possible. Wayne paves the road to a successful event with 3D CAD renderings, budgets, and logistics. And if there should ever be a bump in that road, he has probably seen it coming and planned a way around it. Wayne really is the force that brings your meeting together!

When Wayne is not creating events with razor-sharp precision, he is trimming his Bonsai Trees. He says it helps clear his mind and allows him to focus. Arigato, Zen Master Jackson! Arigato!

Mark Chapin

Executive Producer

Mark came to Preston with an extensive history directing and editing video for a variety of clients. Known for his abilities to write a story, he excels at helping executives tell their stories. Mark’s creative skills spill over into live event and broadcast direction. If it happens in front of a camera, behind a camera, or anywhere near a camera, he makes sure the message is seen and heard!

As a fun and funny person (he has been a stand-up comedian and comedy writer), Mark is a great partner to lead a client through the serious business of communicating with any audience.

Susan Preston

Founder/Administrator

Susan started in the insurance industry and provides the surety and stability to make sure that the business-end of Preston is up and running. She likes to say that she provides the backbone and structure to Preston so that the creatives can do their thing more efficiently and confidently.

Susan is indeed the glue that holds Preston together. Company and client alike would be hard-pressed to imagine pulling off a project without her.

Nathan Watson

Associate Producer

Nathan’s long experience in Musical Theater and theatrical lighting makes him a natural fit at Preston. He plans, prepares, and coordinates Preston’s events wherever they may be. Nathan brings all the staging, lighting, sound, video, and other elements together on-site. Your event may or may not have an orchestra, but either way, Nathan will make sure that it sings!

As a former industrial welder, Nathan has the skills, and demeanor, to fuse together all the pieces, people, processes to make sure the show is solid!
