CPL supplies technical production to Pandora Events show

CPL supplied full technical production - including video design, equipment and crew - to show producers Pandora Events for a large “Glambassador” motivational event including numerous presentations and awards, followed by a gala dinner for Tropic Skincare in Hall 12 at the NEC, Birmingham UK.

CPL’s project manager Mike Radford working with Lee Gruszeckyj and Karl Johnstone composed a stage and screen design based on the client’s brief, which utilised over 200 panels of the company’s new Roe CB5 indoor/outdoor LED screen product.

Three onstage LED screens were flanked by two IMAG screens out to the sides giving a widescreen look. The central screen was made up of two pieces - an arch with a central cut-out panel - which was manually removed for artist entrances and exits for the evening portion of the event when the 2500 audience were entertained by an array of dancers and performers.

Above the start of the thrust emanating from the front of the stage was a 9-metre diameter circular screen. All the screens were flown as part of CPL’s technical package which also involved rigging, lighting and audio.

CPL supplied one of their Disguise 4x4 media servers which was programmed with playback content supplied by the client. A Barco E2 Event Master processor was used for system processing and screen management.

The camera package comprised three Sony HXC-100 cameras, one positioned at FOH with two further down the room; two of which were operated and the third locked-off. Two 20 ft. by 11 ft. delay screens on the back wall - the opposite end of the room to the stage - were fed with Panasonic 20K projectors rigged in some of the lighting trusses.

CPL’s camera director for the event was Karl Johnstone, Lee Moore was the E2 operator, and George Oakey co-ordinated and ran all the PowerPoint presentations which included keynote speeches from Lord Alan Sugar and Tropic founder Susie Ma, who started the company in 2004 aged 15.
