With a scenic backdrop that primarily comprises video and lighting effects, Mumford has applied the bright, pure beams of 46 Sharpys in a unique way to create an almost architectural grid effects across the stage. He has also used the Sharpys to convey stunningly realistic gunfire effects as King Kong is shot down from the Empire State Building.
At the opening of the show the Sharpys are used to deliver a dynamic web of light, projected into a smoke curtain, which descends from the proscenium as King Kong makes his first entrance.
"A lot of people are using Sharpys in a very similar way but for King Kong Peter Mumford has used them in a completely

Warren has worked with Mumford & Sons for five years, 'ever since they needed a lighting designer', favouring tungsten-based lighting in his designs which, he feels, best suits the band.
"I have used Chromlech's Jarag tungsten fixtures since Mumford & Sons' first production tour in 2010, then Chromlech launched Elidy at PLASA 2012," says Warren. "A couple of lighting friends recommended me this new product, and when I saw it for myself I thought Christmas had come! It was almost as if Chromlech had invented the Elidy especially for me.
In a European exclusive, Liolà became the first show outside of the US to be lit with ETC's new Source Four LED CYC fixtures, powered by the ETC Source Four LED Lustr+ engine.
"The ETC Source Four LED CYC is a game-changer," says Austin. "At last there's a high quality, low-energy alternative to the most electricity and gel-hungry section of theatre lighting. There were looks I was able to achieve on the cyclorama for Liolà that would not have been possible with any other method of lighting - not even my beloved tungsten."

The club was planning the biggest refit in its history and needed a product with real impact to help transform the venue. The venue discussed the refit with Terry Lewsey from Light Design Ltd, a long term supplier to the club. Terry suggested a system of Mini-Maps to form a video ceiling and so a demo at MilTec's HQ was arranged. MilTec's demo system of 50 units was used for the demo.
The installation took place during the second week of September. Cabling was simple as the units are supplied with pre-made IDC leads for daisy chaining power and DMX. The compact design meant that the system could be configured around the existing roof structure and air conditioning ducts, something that could not have been done with larger conven
