Chattanooga church upgrades with Elation
- Details
The growing ministry sits on the site of the former Highland Park Baptist Church, a once megachurch, as well as the campus of defunct Tennessee Temple University. With a vision to gather the entire ministry onto one campus, church leaders took the opportunity to acquire the 55-acre site in 2014 and transformed it into the Redemption to the Nations campus.
The all LED lighting system, a remarkably fast install that took place from 9-21 October 2017, includes a variety of Elation LED moving heads - Satura Profile, Platinum SEVEN, Platinum Spot III and ACL 360i - along with Colour 5 Profile ellipsoidals and SixBar 500 battens.
The design merges church lighting with theatrical lighting. Each fixture group, when used alone, demonstrates a unique but complete look in the design while allowing ample room for creativity.
The powerful ACL 360i single-beam moving effects are used to complement the vertical LED display columns by creating stacked beams with a full range of motion. intyde added the SixBar 500s and its individual LED control to supplement the LED wall for a minimal static colour look. Lumen output of all the LED luminaires had to be sufficient enough to power through the 1,200 nit LED wall and as much of the lighting is on motors, full design changes and reconfiguration of the LED wall and lighting are uncomplicated.
