Video is a core aesthetic element of the show which is production designed by Ray Winkler of Stufish, who worked closely with the show's artistic director Kim Gavin.
The tour is being project managed for XL by Des Fallon who comments: "It's great to be involved in one of the most ambitious tours on the road this autumn, and with Chris Vaughan and his team once again on my seventh Take That tour. The multi-layered video looks stunning and results from an innovative fusion of creative and technical ideas."
The 1237 tiles of Stealth are hung in seven columns and primarily receive time-coded playback footage output from video content director Richard Shipman's Hippotizers, plus some IMAG feeds from the six-camera mix directed by Matt Askem.
Shipman also worked closely with XL Video Belgium to design custom dollies for transporting the seven drops of Stealth to optimise the get ins and outs.
