Projection Mapping at TEDx Berkeley 2016
Earlier, I wrote about how we built the giant X for TEDx Berkeley 2016. I’ve attached a video which features Jonathan describing how we wanted to raise the bar and do something dramatic and different. We really wanted to make it an emotional experience for the audience.
Using Vectorworks to design and map the entire stage, we could carefully plan exactly where all our projectors would be located to get the optimal mapping. After spending weeks in the warehouse, we knew enough to set up and fine tune our dual projector coverage of a 15 foot tall wooden X for the 2016 TEDx event.
It was a fantastic project and we learned a ton! We are especially looking forward to solving more creative challenges like this in the future.
A Touching Moment Inspired by Event Design
Repertoire recently worked with a client that wanted to bring their annual keynote conference to the TEDx level. The year previous, this client worked with the in house hotel AV team. The CEO literally said, that last year’s PA system, “looked like something at my son’s Bar Mitzvah.” We designed a color adjustable backlit stage for this client with about 10 rounds of edits.
The PA was fit for a TEDx. When the CEO walked into the room with his wife, they saw the set and gave each other a hug. We realize how important it is to impress your audience and bring value to our clients. Our clients pay our bills, and it’s really touching for us that we could design and build an event for them that brought them such relief, and joy. Needless to say, we’ll be collaborating again next year with the goal of upping the game even more.
