21/07/2016 by petermccrea

Production AV were pleased to be selected by BNL to provide a LED screen solution for the Queen’s 90th birthday celebrations hosted in Lurgan Park. Having done so little work in Northern Ireland in the past, Production AV were excited to work with BNL and provide a top quality service for the people of Lurgan to enjoy.

6mm Outdoor Flown Festival LED Screens

Travelling over the day before, we were on site early and were able to build the screens quickly using our Desay 6.25mm LED Panels, creating two 4.8m x 2.7m 6mm pitch LED Screens using Mobil Tech AlpTek 6.5m stands and truss to fly them off the ground.Two Nova MCTRL660 Processors were used to manage the screen with one being set up to act as a backup to the main processor. Control was set up below the stage where an ImagePRO II Dual was used to feed content to the screen.

An impressive line up for the evening concert included Rod Patterson Session Orchestra, featuring Siobhan Pettit and Aine Whelan with special guest George Jones performing ’90 Years of Music’ as well as award winning Lee Matthews, who recently won best songwriter at the Irish Country Music Awards. The night was ended with a fantastic firework display to end a special night for the Queen and country.

Our thanks to Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council for hosting the event and a big thank you to BNL for choosing us as the screen supplier. We hope this is a beginning of a fruitful partnership.

Royal Albert Hall – José Carreras

23/05/2016 by petermccrea

As part of the SFL Group, Production AV supplied the LED screen to the Royal Albert Hall for José Carreras in his first headline appearance since 2008 to premiere A Life in Music. Using our Desay 6.25mm LED panels, we built a 12m x 2.7m screen that was flown above José and his performing orchestra as the centre piece for Carreras to visually tell his incredible life in music story.

Opera Performance 6mm LED Screen Solution

Arriving for an early load in at 7am, the Production AV team had the screen fully rigged and operational by 10:30am which allowed the sound technicians free access to setup the orchestra’s positions. Two Nova MCTRL660 Processors were used to manage the screen with one being set up to act as a backup to the main processor. Control was set up a floor below the stage where an ImagePro II Dual was used to feed content to the screen. The show was in the evening and a technician was on site the entire time monitoring the screens which worked perfectly throughout. Below is an audience member’s picture of the special night.

Our thanks to SFL for choosing us as the LED Supplier and we look forward to the next time the Royal Albert Hall needs an audiovisual solution.

Warwick Arts Centre – CCSG Awards 2016

11/05/2016 by petermccrea

Production AV were excited to have the opportunity to provide an LED screen solution to first time clients, Warwick Arts Centre for their Campus and Commercial Services Group Awards night. It was a privilege to be chosen to enhance the visual impact of a night for recognising the contributions the CCSG make to the student, staff and visitor community and in enabling the University to achieve all that it does.

6mm LED Screen Awards Ceremony Solution

Using our stock of Desay 6.25mm LED Panels, Production AV created a 4.8m x 2.7m centre screen which was flanked on either side by two 3.2m x 1.8m screens. The screens were flown on individual truss supports and used the Desay rigging bars and screws along with 1.5m soft steels and 3.25t bow shackles to balance and hang them safely. Using two Nova MCTRL660 Processors, meant we were able to have the centre screen as it’s own entity and could easily adjust the individual brightness settings to the clients request.

All content was fed to the screens using two Barco ImagePro II Dual’s that were conveniently placed out of the way back stage. All switching and mixing was done using the in-house hardware. All equipment was rigged on the morning of the show with rehearsals in the afternoon and the event in the evening. The screen worked flawlessly throughout the day and we were able to swiftly derig it at the end of the night.

Many thanks again to Warwick Arts Centre for inviting us to be apart of this special night and we look forward to working alongside your team in the future.

Fantastic LED Screen for Nutcracker On Ice

14/01/2016 by petermccrea

The festive spectacular jointly promoted by the Royal Albert Hall and Lunchbox Theatrical Productions, welcomed the Imperial Ice Stars to the rink, chose a spectacular 13.6m x 5.4m 6mm pitch screen as a centre piece for the performances provided by SFL group members, Production AV.

High Resolution 6mm LED Screen

As part of the SFL Group, Production AV supplied the screen to the Royal Albert Hall for the run of performances over the festive period. A tight build schedule required that the screen build dovetail with the construction of the 4000sqft Ice rink and setting up for the orchestra. This was achieved to deliver the ground supported screen within the required schedules and with no issues. With the screen boasting over 1.8Million LED pixels, the content was fed to the screens over Lightware Modex fibre optic systems, and switched by a Barco E2 system. The tightly scripted show content was run from Apple MacPro machines running QLab, all equipment supplied from the SFL Group inventory.

Our thanks go to Mike Kane who looked after the screen for the successful run of shows.

Rugby World Cup – Gloucester Fanzone 2015

09/01/2016 by petermccrea

With the announcement of 15 Official Rugby World Cup 2015 Fanzone locations, Production AV were proud to be selected as the provider of the weatherproof Desay 6.25mm Pixel-Pitch 8m x 4.5m, goalpost-mounted LED screen that attracted so many thousands to Gloucester’s Fanzone.

From the 18th September to 11th October, Production AV maintained the screen which showed all group stage matches live and for free. Working alongside Peak Sound and Light supplier of the Line Array loudspeaker system, together we delivered high quality coverage for the many thousands of fans hailing locally and from across the world who came to enjoy what the Gloucester Fanzone had to offer.

Despite the disappointment for the English fans of England’s tournament being ended in the group stages, the Fanzone was a success with nothing but positive feedback. With the Wimbledon, World Cup Football and The Olympics all on the horizon let’s hope we’ll see Fanzone and the screen return for future events.
