A theatre style conference for an audience of 750, staged for event management company Strata. To make full use of the space, we supplied an extensive truss frame system with 20' x 11' widescreen front projection, using two Christie HD8K projectors overlapped to combine brightness. The 1920 x 1200 pixels output from two Mac Powerbooks provided true HD resolution, sent to the projectors over a fibre optic link. We also provided a live three-camera DVCam shoot and a powerful D&B Q-Series 5kw PA system. With only two 32amp 3-phase supplies, there was limited power for lighting. The lighting rig was specifically designed around this, by using low-power LED battens and LED parcans to supplement the minimal generic lighting.
