WELLS, UK – The BBC Children in Need annual marathon TV spectacular is vigorously supported each year by local outside broadcasts spanning the breadth of the British Isles. This year, wanting to stand out with extra pizzazz, BBC Bristol appointed TV Lighting Director, Paul Middleton, to bring the ‘wow factor’ to the outside broadcast from the West Country’s Wookey Hole Circus School, near Wells.  The well-known LD did just that with help from a collection of intense fixtures from Chauvet Professional.

AUCKLAND, New Zealand – Ayrton’s MagicPanel 602 LED panels are part of the rig specified by LD Rob Sinclair for the 2014/15 Queen + Adam Lambert world tour. The fixtures play an integral role in ensuring that the giant “Q” centerpiece packs visual interest. Upstaging provided the gear, with an assist from Chameleon in Australia/New Zealand and Neg Earth in Europe.

LEICESTER, U.K. – For a production of Cinderella that coincided with the holidays at De Montfort Hall here, principle technician Jim O’Mahoney used Triple E gear to overcome some vexing rigging challenges within the 1,490-seat venue, starting with its lack of a fly tower. The solution involved the use of 92 meters of Unitrack.

SINGAPORE — In a prominent intersection on the outskirts of Singapore City in Paya Lebar lies the Trinity Christian Centre, Trinity@Paya Lebar. Designed to imitate the vast canyons of the Israeli deserts, the building’s beige-colored facade mimics the folds of the desert landscape. The lighting includes Harman’s Martin Professional gear.
