With AI at the core, SHOT3 Studios combines digital media with artificial intelligence to enhance event interactions, amplifying the energy and engagement for everyone on and off the court.

This new venture extends the boundary of digital content, using AI and advanced media to bring new dimensions to live sporting experiences. SHOT3 Studios, founded by experts in pickleball, sports management, and digital innovation, is set to produce and deliver immersive media assets that elevate the energy, excitement, and storytelling behind every game.

SHOT3 Studios: Enhancing Pickleball Experiences with AI and Digital Media

As SHOT3 Studios unveils its first projects, the studio is already reshaping the experience for major events like the upcoming PickleStorm tournament series. This international pickleball circuit, starting in Guangzhou in December 2024 and spanning multiple locations globally through 2025, will be equipped with exclusive, AI-generated musical themes, creating a distinct soundscape for each city. For each stop, SHOT3 Studios will release up to 16 custom tracks, uniquely composed to mirror the vibrant atmosphere of each location and set a memorable ambiance for players and fans alike.

AI at the Heart of SHOT3 Paddles and Digital Media

The use of AI doesn’t stop at SHOT3 Studios—it was integral to the creation of SHOT3’s high-performance paddles, specifically the SHOT3 Genesis Pro Ai series. During development, SHOT3 collaborated with top players and used advanced AI models trained to analyze balance, control, and responsiveness, producing paddles with the ideal blend of power and control. By drawing on insights from players and AI’s precision analytics, SHOT3 created paddles that are engineered for peak performance, delivering a unique playing experience with each swing.

SHOT3 Studios is poised to expand this AI-driven approach to event media, creating an ecosystem where fans, players, and brands connect deeply with the sport through custom-crafted digital content, interactive visuals, and unique auditory experiences.
