TDC supports Vivid Sydney Light Walk

The Vivid Sydney Light Walk will transform the Harbour City into an illuminating fusion of creativity, innovation, and technology from Friday, 27 May to Saturday, 18 June, 2022, with more than 200 events celebrating the essence of Sydney’s soul including its diversity, beauty, resilience, First Nations culture, and vibrant creative community.

“After twelve months of planning, our team are so excited to be back working on Vivid Sydney again,” says Alex Rendell, Technical Project Manager at Technical Direction Company (TDC), a team of project managers, creative technologists, designers and engineers. “The project is a huge logistical and technical rollout for us. It is going to be bigger and brighter than ever. Vivid Sydney will showcase the largest projection mapping display at any single event ever in Australia.”

TDC are illuminating buildings and performance stages with the latest technical advances in LED and projection design and mapping. They provide backbone technology for signage systems for new immersive experiences on the Vivid Sydney Light Walk. TDC LiveView technology will be in action with over seventy real-time digital way finders. LiveView will guide the audience through the Vivid Sydney Light Walk based on real-time information from traffic management, police and emergency services.

Technology preparation began in April at the TDC warehouse where projection equipment was checked and allocated for each location. The first on-site technical tests and projection line up started on 16 May 2022. Over 110 HD projectors will be used across 27 sites for 23 nights, with over 2.5 million lumens of light being produced each evening. Overall, 230 million pixels will be displayed each evening. Custom-built media servers are being used for the first time this year. All sites are remotely monitored with real-time TDC Live View remote reporting 24/7.
