THE ASK
The client approached Proshow with a clear vision for the event’s aesthetic and functionality. Their main request was to incorporate two flanking screens for presentations and visuals while creating a bold and attention-grabbing centerpiece at center stage. The design needed to seamlessly balance visual impact, budget constraints, and the atmosphere of the event while complementing the grandeur of the ballroom.
THE SOLUTION
Proshow worked closely with the client to bring their vision to life while maximizing the available budget. The immersive design featured two 10’x30’ screens, positioned on either side of the stage and seamlessly blended with two HDX-W20 Barco Flex projectors per screen to create a clean and polished display.
For the centerpiece, Proshow developed an innovative scenic set featuring six 4’x4′ cubes, video-mapped with two additional HDX-W20 Barco Flex projectors and Dataton Watchout. The result was a striking, three-dimensional centerpiece that engaged attendees and beautifully enhanced the elegance of both the gala and the Star Sapphire Ballroom.
To accommodate the ceiling height and low rigging weight capacity in the room, the screens, projectors, lighting equipment and PA system were mounted on truss boxes, allowing for those to be hung in a way that would not have been possible with the venue’s 500lbs rigging points while remaining within the budget parameters.
