Tim Dunn will discuss lighting the World Cup at LDI
USA - Lighting designer Tim Dunn from Gearhouse South Africa will give a presentation about lighting the acclaimed Closing Ceremony for the 2010 FIFA World Cup for Robe at the Lighting Design International (LDI) exhibition 2010 staged in Las Vegas 22 - 24 October.

The presentation is currently scheduled to run once daily for the three days of the show - one of which will be in Spanish. Full details to follow. Interested parties can register for a place at the front desk of the Robe booth.

Robe ColorWash and ColorSpot 2500E ATs and REDWash 3-192s were used extensively - along with other fixtures - in the award winning event at Soccer City Stadium, Johannesburg, South Africa, produced by The VWV Group.

Dunn's presentation will detail the challenges faced by him and his team, which included precision lighting around the large format pitch video projections. Dunn will also expand on his use of MA Lighting's Visualiser to pre-programme the show, and the control network used to route over 30 DMX universes. There will also be the opportunity for a full Q&A session.
