UK - A new series of BBC Three's Live from the BBC began filming last weekend at Broadcasting House. Filmed in front of a live audience, the show is designed to showcase some of the Industry's latest talent including James Acaster, Dane Baptiste, Sofie Hagen, Adam Hess, Tez Ilyas, Nish Kumar, and Felicity Ward.

Martin Kempton is the lighting designer, with equipment provided by RML (Richard Martin Lighting). He has chosen to use Pixel Par's, Stage Bar 54's, X1TC Battens and a Followspot.

"I needed a range of flicker-free LED fixtures that I could use along with the lights that are built in to this unique venue," says Martin. "The production brief was to create a warm, sophisticated look that was not 'light entertainment' but enhanced the beautiful art deco architecture of the room. We had very little time to rig so it was essential that the kit was reliable and as ever with RML I wasn't disappointed."

The series will be co funded by BBC Worldwide and produced by Phil McIntyre Television.
