Event Concept provides a creative event design and full technical production service for both corporate and private clients, and is listed as an approved supplier in over 35 of London's most prestigious venues.
Roger Deane, Event Concept's head of company operations, had been considering a number of LED products on the market when he contacted long-time supplier A.C. Lighting, who recommended the new Color Split fixture.
Deane comments: "The Color Split is ideal for our needs. It provides a very smooth colour change without any sudden 'jumps' that are common with other products and also a very smooth output for uplighting columns or walls. The colour mixing effects are also very impressive - I've seen people trying to use multiple units to achieve a similar effect and failing."
Deane was also impressed by the unit's compact and robust design: "Having an onboard PSU and DMX means no faff and it's got a minimal footprint for tight event spaces. It's also sensibly constructed and has a simple, user-friendly mode and address system - so a great all-round design."
Although the specification of the fixture was still being finalised at the time of order, A.C. was able to deliver the units ahead of Event Concept's September deadline and incorporate their request for standalone functionality into the first software issue.
Event Concept plan to use the Color Split to wash columns and walls in a range of venues across London in the coming months.
