Not a Single Head Turned

Pioneering through the 20th century was the catalyst of the last visual spectacular that we produced. The load-in consisted of 32 10K DLP projectors, covering an estimated 980 linear feet and over 20,000 square feet of projected imagery (longer than 3 football fields). 200 individual LED fixtures bathing each of the elegantly adorned dining tables with themed color schemes, completely submerging the audience in an era rich environment. Add a full concert digital array audio system and you’ve got yourself an event for the “history” books!
Guests began their evening by walking a sepia rich hallway donned with barn wood framed art of the time. Turning the corner, the unsuspecting guests would come face to face and interact with two central figures of the organization that were projected live within an art frame nestled amongst other era portrait pieces. Take the “blue pill” comedy ensued!
Taking a journey through time started with custom concepts, video, animation and still imagery that blended with the perfect soundtracks to keep the audience captivated with the story being told. That’s not easy when it’s an open bar!
Feeling quite honored that I had the opportunity to watch 1650 people sitting in their chairs comfortably without ever having to turn their head to find a screen was a sight to behold.
The only thing I regret about the entire evening was having to work backstage. Guess I’ll have to wait for the video to come out.
Best part of the event was that they raised over a “Million Dollars” that night for a very worthy cause.
Cheers!
