The company was founded 10 years ago by Clint Stevenson, who originally concentrated on audio and AV. As it became successful and busy, Clint realised that a key to maintaining this was to offer his clients a full package including lighting, and so started looking at purchasing some specific elements of lighting.
Wired Media has most recently invested in Robe's Pointes, miniPointes and MiniMe fixtures - all supplied by SA distributor DWR.
The four Pointes were the first Robe purchase, shortly after the unit was launched in 2013. These proved a great hit with everyone, so he followed up buying the four miniPointes and two MiniMes this year.
The miniPointe is a favourite already. 'It's a beautiful light" Clint comments: "The beam is really bight, and although much of the time they look great in smaller sized rooms and spaces, we have even used them for outdoor searchlight effects."
Clint recently used them to produce digital gobos at a conference at the Sabiya Casino - in an room where a profile light with a gobo could not be fitted - and even with the house lights on, they were extremely crisp and clear.
He also recently used the MiniMe's for blending different video sources for a church convention. They displayed the different departmental logos on screen as well as motion graphics announcing the worship sessions. His standard control platform for these is an Avo Titan mobile.
