Alex Hylands-White co-founded the immersive show control & tech solutions company Clockwork Dog in 2016 originally as an escape room design agency. Previous to that he worked in film as a director and executive producer, running a production company with Jack Pirie.

At Clockwork Dog, he combined his experience with his two co-directors respective software development and theatre direction backgrounds, forming a three-pillar collaborative approach which was crucial to the company’s early development and is still essential today.

This unique combination was instrumental in the company’s early successes including the top 100 TERPICA rated escape room, Loop, and many gamified IP-based experiences like the Tomb Raider Escape Experience in 2018 for Warner Bros. These projects provided crucial lessons in live game design and delivering technical integration from the ground up.

Their show control system, COGS, evolved directly from these productions. Now, Clockwork Dog provides the core technology and expertise deployed in running major immersive attractions including The Traitors Live Experience, Monopoly Lifesized, The Paddington Bear Experience, Taskmaster and Lander 23.
