Full HD Projection Solution for BAMMA 18

Working again for our regular clients BAMMA, Production AV supplied a playback, screen and projector solution with engineers for the load in and show to the BAMMA 18 event held in the Wolverhampton Civic Hall in mid February. Another night of top level mixed martial arts was had, with the title fight going the full 3 rounds between Krzyzstof Klaczek and the winner by TKO, Tom ‘The Fire Kid’ DuQuesnoy.

This continues our long association working for BAMMA, starting from the BAMMA 4 Event back in 2010 at the NIA.

Compact Solution

Based on the ‘BAMMA Small Package’ based around a pair of the flexible Barco HDX-W20 Flex projectors running at 10,000 lumens and paired with 16′ x 9′ Stumpfl Screens flown on either side of the fighters entrance.

Taking feeds from our PlaybackPro+ software as well as the OB trucks camera and VT play-in mix through as Barco ScreenPRO-II switcher system, we managed the feed to the screens ensuring the fighters introduction VT’s were run at the correct times. By the nature of a live event, there is also a large list of assets that can be called on when fights don’t run the full length of the 3, 5 minute rounds.

As always it was a pleasure to be working alongside the established team to deliver another successful event, and we look forward to further BAMMA’s in the coming year.

DigiLED 3.9mm LED Screen Investment

The BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall was the first outing for our new 3.9mm pixel pitch, digiLED HRi3900 LED screen where it took pride of place, flown as the central 7m x 3m screen.

Integrated Team Work

The scale of the venue, and required location of the screen means that only the brightness and intensity of the LED will give the required hi-resolution images. Working as part of SFL Group, Production AV supplied the LED screen delivered to site with technicians for the build and operation of the screen during the events.

SFL Group, who are the Royal Albert Halls’s preferred AV supplier, furnished the venue with four large projector screens powered by Barco HDX-W20 Flex 20k Lumen and Christie LHD 7k lumen projectors. The resulting quality of the images gave a cinematic quality that added to the ambience and ensured that the audience all had the best view in the house. Craig Lawrence, SFL’s Video & Projects Director, commented, “We were all blown away with the quality and performance of this new digiLED product.The fanless design, fantastic low brightness performance and great calibration make for a brilliant screen. ”

From flying to ground support, our new LED has been busy on corporate events as backdrop for awards ceremonies, as well as on television shows where it’s versatility has been utilised as 1m wide columns. Find out more about our LED Screens.

The Autumn launch of the long awaited Nike Hypervenom football boot, managed by Ear to the Ground, was a very special event.

The location, a derelict Welsh Chapel in central London, provided a unique gritty backdrop which was taken over and transformed into a football amphitheatre.

The launch staged a 2 aside knockout tournament, and involved putting 200 young footballers up against each other under the watchful eye of Premier League players Danny Welbeck, Daniel Sturridge & Christian Benteke.

Using Christie Digital LHD700 projectors, Production AV projected the all important scoreboard onto the venue wall, as well as supplying large screen flat panel displays throughout the building.
