Winter Park, FL – [12-1-2025] – Mainline is pleased to announce the addition of Michael Burke as our new Technical Specialist – Lighting Systems at our Winter Park headquarters.

Michael joins Mainline with more than 15 years of experience in theatrical and entertainment lighting as a designer, programmer, crew chief, and technician. His background spans theme parks, touring productions, live events, and immersive experiences.

Prior to joining Mainline, Michael spent over a decade with The Walt Disney Company, most recently serving as Park Wide Lighting Crew Chief at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, where he supported day-to-day park operations and special events. His work there included lighting leadership for “Finding Nemo – The Musical,” programming for Tree of Life Awakenings, installation and programming for the Arena at the Disney ESPN Complex, and show support for “Harmonious” and other large-scale productions.

Michael also brings touring and production experience from Feld Entertainment, including Disney On Ice, Nuclear Cowboyz, and the Women of Faith tours, along with independent projects as a free-lance lighting designer and programmer.

Michael is proficient with a wide range of lighting fixtures, control platforms, and atmospherics from the world’s leading manufacturers—including Elation—giving him a deep, hands-on understanding of the tools today’s professionals rely on.

“Michael brings a wealth of experience and knowledge specific to the lighting industry,” said Clinton Muntean, President of Mainline. “He’s spent years in the trenches—designing, programming, operating, maintaining, and installing complex systems for some of the most demanding entertainment environments in the world. That perspective will be invaluable as he helps our dealers and end users choose the right lighting solutions and get the most out of their systems.”

We’re excited to welcome Michael to the Mainline team and look forward to the creativity, practical insight, and real-world lighting expertise he’ll bring to our customers, partners, and colleagues.
