The event was staged at the Freemason's Hall in Covent Garden, with PR Live responsible for delivering all the necessary technical production, a task co-ordinated for them by Justin Hammond.
He commented, "The ColourPoint Mk 2s were absolutely vital to establishing the correct look, feel and general ambience we wanted of the venue, which was divided into multiple areas all of which needed to be linked and feel part of the whole after-party 'experience' as well as having their individual identities."
PR Live owns vast quantities of ColourPoint Mk 2s and provided 72 of the fixtures used on this event - one of the highest profile of several after-parties taking place around London after the Brits at the O2. Another 126 ColourPoint Mk 2s were supplied by dedicated wireless lighting rental specialist, Wireless Lighting, also based in south London.
There is limited power available in the venue and almost no convenient plug-sockets due to its age and history, so the only option to illuminate these correlating areas neatly and efficiently was using wireless technology.
The other parameters was the length of time the units needed to be on which was from 2pm. in the afternoon to 3am the following morning and the amount of light emitted, so the bright, wireless ColourPoint Mk 2 unit with its long illumination cycle was selected for the job.
In addition to providing intense illumination with its 2000 lumens of output over a protracted time period, the quality of light from the CORE products is extremely high
Core's ColourPoint Mk2 is a lightweight lithium battery powered LED event up-lighter with full wireless DMX control.
