STL Lighting's Iain Austin, who has already been involved in the Summer Concerts held at the castle, took charge of putting together an impressive array of City Color architectural lighting fixtures and Martin Mac 2000s near the waters edge of the castle.
The lighting configuration made it possible to set different atmospheres as the story of a Mythical Dragon unfolded in front of the 12000+ audience, with the waters of the lake and the castle buildings themselves, blending through a wide breadth of colour and tones.
Award-winning laser producer Julie Stewart from Laser Visuals took care of the laser segments of the display with large scale animated laser projections in keeping with the mythical themed script, being displayed on multiple walls of the castle.
A second high-power 40W YAG laser was also used to create exciting aerial effects that spanned out over the audience.
John Summers from Leeds Castle said he was delighted with how the lighting and laser effects had worked, and how stunning they had looked with fireworks.
