A Conversation with Nathan Marks, Senior Project Manager at Falcon’s Attractions

What does it take to bring a world-class attraction to life? From blue sky strategy to development and delivery, bringing theme park attractions to life is a dance between imagination and engineering rigor. On any given day, our engineers bridge creative intent with reliable technology, translate story into motion, and turn constraints into opportunities. The outcome? Guests walking off the attractions knowing they will never forget the adventure they went on.

At Falcon's Attractions, we often say our greatest strength is our people, and Ron is one of the best examples of that truth. With a background in commercial diving and over 15 years at OES before it was acquired by Falcon’s, Ron brings a calm, no-nonsense approach to even the most complex installs. He’s not just someone who gets the job done; he’s someone others trust to lead, to troubleshoot, and to raise the bar. His story reflects the kind of quiet dedication, deep expertise, and sharp instinct that define Falcon’s on the ground, where ideas turn into reality.

At Falcon’s, each project is uniquely challenging because of the variety of mediums and display formats we create content for, but perhaps one of the most satisfying projects I have personally been a part of is our 3D dome projection theater.

In Falcon’s most recent blog, my colleague CG Supervisor Claudio Gonzalez discussed some of the technical aspects of developing 360-degree dome media content. I think it’s important to understand a bit of the background leading to today’s content development in terms of the theater itself and how it has evolved into its current state of being.

ON!X™ Theater is an interactive gaming environment designed for audiences of all sizes and high throughput. Our goal was to bring the newest advancements in modern gaming technology to the ON!X™ product to ensure that the experience stays fresh and engaging during each and every show.
