UK - Large format projection specialists E/T/C London supplied seven 6kW PIGI projectors with double rotating scrollers to produce a 120m wide backdrop on The Old College building at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, for Music On Fire 2008.

It is the third time that E/T/C London has been involved in the biannual three-day mixed-media extravaganza and Firework Prom which attracted audiences of up to 10,000 per night with proceeds going to the Army Benevolent Fund.

The PIGI scrollers contained 19m of film and produced over 100 looks on the building, with all artwork created by media designer Paul Chatfield.

Chatfield took approximately a month to research and compile the finished artwork, working closely with show producer, Major Sir Michael Parker who also storyboarded the production.

The seven projectors were positioned 46m from the building, covered by Steeldeck hides, with special weatherproof covers.

The OnlyCue control system was programmed and operated by Andy Murrell, who worked alongside E/T/C's projection technician Adam Masters. They benefitted from pre-programming some of the projection show beforehand at E/T/C London's HQ, saving a night of programming in situ. Lighting equipment was supplied by PRG and sound by Delta. Summit Steel supplied SmarTmasts for the PA, and the event was production managed by Fiona Nolan.
