Case Studies

   Motor Show 2001
 

 

       
  Ford stand / Toyota and Lexus stand.
The challenge      
 

    Get the following built, flown to trim and flashed out in ten hours!

227 x par cans
12 x VL6B
10 x Stage Scans
4 x Stage Color
10 x Stage Zoom
37 x Source 4 profiles
20 x 1.8K Arena Visions
350m x XO truss (in two separate trusses)
 

 

Go Top .

The solution      
      Rigging team (Richard Estridge, Richie Flanagan and Carlos Fernandes) arrive on site at 3:00 AM to give us a head start.
    Lighting crew (Steve Shipman, Rene Colinayo, Frances Jose and Lawrance Kuttappan) follow at 9:00 AM.

    Stretched for crew, deprived of sleep in the busiest week of the season and with set builders breathing down our necks, we made a mayday call for help as we it looked like we weren’t going to meet the ridiculous schedule. Thanks to Phil, Nick, Richard and James for coming down to help us meet deadline!
 
 

Go Top .

The end result

     
  Tough call but we pulled it off. 40 cars lit and gleaming, and happy clients.
    Once the rig was up it was 3 slightly more relaxed days of making it all work and focusing before the show opened.
