Chauvet Professional provided lighting at the Electric Bounce House event in Boston’s House of Blues on Monday December 5. Two large video walls were built by Image Production Services of Worcester, MA, using Chauvet Professional MVP Ta8 Curve LED tiles.
Image Production Services used 80 of the 8.3mm pixel pitch panels to construct a large wall behind the DJ booth, and a narrow video wall strip using the MVP Ta8 Curve tiles in front of the booth. The two walls displayed content created by the artists’ video designers.
“Tim McKenna and his crew did a great job setting up the walls,” said Darren Lussier, owner of Image Production Services. “The thing I like about these tiles is that they have very good resolution and they’re very bright. You can create very intricate patterns and text, and they will show up clearly. At this concert, with its very intense rig, plus a packed house with everyone waving glow sticks, the video tiles needed to be bright to show up – and they were that and more.”
Contributing to the brightness that surrounded the video walls was the floor package for headliners The Chainsmokers that featured Rogue RH1 Hybrid and R2 Wash fixtures, as well as STRIKE 4 multi-formatted fixtures from Chauvet Professional. Aaron Kovelman, lighting designer for the red-hot duo, used six of the Rogue Hybrids and an equal number of the washes, plus four of the STRIKE units in his eye-popping rig.
Kovelman flew the Rogue RH1 Hybrids on upstage truss that he positioned in line with the DJ booth and configured as a semicircle arch. The intense output from the hybrid fixtures created a halo effect around The Chainsmokers and coordinated with the colors on the PVP X3 panels that flanked the booth. At some points during the concert, the fixtures directed their beams out at the audience on both levels of the room.
Adding to the intensity of the evening were the four STRIKE 4 panels that Kovelman placed on top of the DJ booth and used for strobing and warm white washing. The six Rogue R2 Washes in his rig were flown on midstage truss and used for stage and aerial washing.
