Maestra makes new LED screen investment

Event production company Maestra Dubai has invested in 100 square metres of new 3.9 mm Flex:led LED screen, a product specially developed for them in conjunction with an Asian manufacturer for indoor use. As the ‘flex’ part of the name implies, the high resolution surface can be used curved up to 10 degrees - either concaved, convexed or twisted - so it is multifunctional and can be used for more creative shapes and scenic applications as well as standard IMAG displays and backdrops.

 

For Maestra, this represents phase one of a substantial investment and expansion of its video departments planned for this year in both Dubai and London bases. Both operations will be purchasing eight 14K Christie projectors, several additional Dataton Watchout 6 servers and an Analog Way Ascender 32 switcher. Maestra’s additional video services include the production of content in-house, and the provision of camera/PPU packages, media servers/control and projection systems.

 

The debut show for the new Flex:led was during Art Dubai 2017 for which Maestra was the primary AV supplier. Flex:led was used in two locations in Madinat Jumeirah. The first was a 4 m by 2.5 m screen that showcased a time-lapse video of ‘Coloured Glass Panels’, the 2017 Abraaj Group Art Prize winning commission created by Bangladeshi-British artist Rana Begum, an installation inspired by the interplay between light and colour. The screen was built into custom set panels and secured using its ground-stacking system.

 

The second Flex:led screen was used as a stage backdrop for the 11th Global Art Forum, a major conference staged in a custom built tent structure on Fort Island, featuring talks, presentations, discussions and videos.
