At American Airlines Center, Syncrolite used only five XL10 Xenon Skylights to light the entire West facade of the building (470ft wide x 120ft tall) and only 6 SXB-7/3 units to light the North facade (380ft wide x 120ft tall). 12 more XL10 units were put on the roof of the building to produce beams in the sky.
The XL10s produce around 450,000 lumens each, while the SXB-7/3s produce around 350,000 lumens. The products provide an alternative to far more complex and maintenance-heavy automated fixtures as well as providing savings in time and money over greater numbers of smaller fixtureswhen it comes to maintenance, labour, installation costs and quantity of fixtures required, the company says.
The event was produced by TrashTalk FCM, led by Drew Livingston. Syncrolite's techs were TJ Benton and Eric Braudaway, and the site coordinator was Josh Henderson. Programming was by Troy Eckerman.
