The first award was given to Joshua Thatcher with the Local 728 in Hollywood, who was the first to use W-DMX in a major feature film and continues to be the biggest such user in movies like Spiderman 3, Mission Impossible III and Transformers.
Valy Tremblay of Proluxon was also given a Visionary Award, for his use of W-DMX in Cirque du Soleil's Delirium and most recently for a Chantal Chamandy concert in Cairo with the Cairo Symphony Orchestra.
"We're very proud of the many ways in which W-DMX has been opening doors to new possibilities in lighting," said Niclas Arvidsson, international sales manager for Wireless Solution, "but the product alone couldn't do these things, which is why we wanted to recognize Josh and Valy for their outstanding use of the product."
