Using the arts for personal and global transformation.

We believe that good art is innovative, inspiring and builds bridges between people.

What we do

We help people use technology to tell stories to local and global audiences.

Like our clients, we are creatives who have worked on shoestring budgets. We know how to integrate technology – videos, projection mapping or interactivity – into live and hybrid performances.

We collaborate with our clients to develop tailor-made solutions.

We offer our specialised in-house resources and technical expertise to plan, record, edit, map, and stream live, hybrid and interactive performances and events.

Our clients want to create work that reaches local and global audiences.

They want to explore and innovate with different ways of storytelling and different ways to reach audiences, but they don’t have the resources to access technology and technical expertise.

With Lime

William Franco and Miki Seifert started With Lime when they came to Aotearoa New Zealand from Los Angeles in 2007.

We create performances, installations, videos and projections. We use our artistic multi-linguality to cross the borders between visual, media, dance and theatre arts. Our awarding-winning work has been in galleries, museums and festivals around the world.
