About
MY STORY
My journey in audio visual technology began at Masque Sound & Recording Co. in Moonachie, NJ, where I helped build sound reinforcement for Broadway productions including The Secret Garden and Les Miserables. That early experience set the foundation for a career defined by technical excellence and creative problem-solving.
For over seven years at Monmouth University, I served as Instructional Technology Technician and later Director of Media Services — designing multimedia classrooms, running video conferences, recording music and theatre performances, and managing AV infrastructure across the campus.
Since then, I’ve worked as a freelance technician and director, supporting film festivals, corporate conferences, arts theatres, and public programs throughout the Tri-State Area.

Peter DiGiovanni's portfolio and creative work
The best way to understand what Peter does is to see it. His portfolio brings together the events, installations, and production work he’s contributed to across New Jersey and beyond — the projection setups, live-event builds, and edited video and audio projects that show the craft in action. If you’d like to view Peter DiGiovanni’s portfolio, visit the portfolio page for project highlights, and reach out through the contact page to discuss a specific event or production need.
How Peter approaches a project
What sets Peter apart isn’t a single piece of gear – it’s the mindset. Every project starts with understanding the room, the audience, and the outcome the client actually needs, then working backward to the technical setup that delivers it reliably. He plans for the things that go wrong, tests before the doors open, and stays calm and hands-on when a live event is unfolding in real time. The goal is always the same: technology that disappears, so the moment itself is what people remember.
Why work with Peter DiGiovanni?
Live production is unforgiving – there are no second takes when an audience is in the room. Clients work with Peter because he brings the combination that matters most in AV: technical depth, calm under pressure, and genuine reliability. He’s local to New Jersey and available across NY and Philadelphia, he’s worked the full range from classrooms to film festivals, and he treats every event as if his reputation rides on it – because it does.
