Production AV chosen to supply site-wide Video

Working for The Rouge Partnership, Production AV supplied video solutions to Sky’s internal staff events held in London and Edinburgh. The two day events saw artists such as Tinie Tempah, Calvin Harris, Texas, Eliza Doolittle and Zane Lowe performing for the crowds, alongside performances from various artists and acts from Sky’s own rosta, offering something for everybody.

LED Solution

Production AV supplied Lighthouse R7 screens to the main stage and outside the Kayam tented structure to enable the guests to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine while watching the acts. Alongside the LED screens, a full studio camera system was supplied to perform the IMAG tasks and allow for ISO recordings of each channel, enabling Sky to archive and edit the footage for internal uses. The 4 camera package included 30′ jib, tracking dolly and 70x long lens options to give a wide variety of shots and movement for the mix.

Various plasma screens we deployed around the venue to enable the VIP guest and those at the bar to keep an eye on the action as it happened.

It was a pleasure to be involved with the events, and Production AV very much hope to return in 2012 to work on these events again.

Greenbelt Festival 2010

08/09/2010 By

The second August bank holiday weekend saw Greenbelt Festival 2010 staged at Cheltenham Racecourse once again. Working as the appointed video contractor, Production AV supplied a range of venues from simple desktop projectors, through to a full HD projection for a pre-release screening of Africa United by Pathe Fims.  We also provided the Main Stage LED Screen solution for over 10,000 people to view all the action. Production AV took care of it with our usual professional approach, attention to detail and meticulous planning, all combined with well prepared equipment ensuring that the delivery on-site was on schedule and met the client’s requirements.

We utilised our experience in fibre optic and copper DVI transmission, as well as minimum latency processing to provide solutions that got the best from all the content, and where appropriate made the systems easy to use and manage.  Production AV supplied 19 venues throughout the weekend, with technical cover to ensure the smooth running of the programme where necessary, as well as an on-call support service to the un-crewed venues where technical support wasn’t required on a full time basis.

It was a pleasure to work with the festival management team and we hope to be working together again next year.

Production AV can provide video solutions for your next festival … contact us to discuss your plans …

MicroTiles for Production AV

06/05/2010 By

Production AV is proud to be the first UK rental house to take the new high resolution, modular, LED driven digital canvas from Christie Digital into it’s hire stock.

The MicroTiles offer a unique product for exhibition designers and live event producers, enabling you to create bespoke displays in new shapes that give stunning resolution and close up detail with a very wide colour gamut that can give the precise colour that is required by the client’s brand guidelines. It’s ability to be built into stripes or blocks enables digital signage to go beyond the traditional flat screen display helping to engage with increasingly saturated viewers.

Each 16″ wide by 12″ high module is only 10″ deep, and requires 2″ of cooling space to the rear. The native display resolution is a 720×540 pixels, so it is possible to create above HD resolution displays of multiple shapes, enabling your client to get face to face with the image and not loose image quality. Production AV have taken a quantity of MicroTiles, ECU’s, rigging hardware and ancillary items into stock, along with Onelan NTB5505 Digital Signage player for demo and rental use as well as Apple Mac Mini computers for playing back content on discrete MicroTiles Displays.

For more information on the MicroTiles please have a look at the MicroTiles website. Production AV is also now a Christie Digital Partner, which enables collaboration with Christie, as well as access to extensive facilities of the EMEA regional HQ in Wokingham.

If you have a project in mind for the MicroTiles, then please do get in touch with us either by Local Rate telephone on 0845 37 000 24 or by email to info@productionav.co.uk We are able to offer both rental and sales solutions for fixed installation, Digital Signage and Architectural environments.
