E-Commercial Conference

Premier supported Annica Digital with the E-commercial conference 2016 at the Marriott hotel, Leicester

Brief

We were asked by the team at Anicca Digital to provide an AV solution for the E-Commercial conference 2016. Having organised the 2015 conference using ‘in house equipment’ the team at Anicca wanted to step up the AV production for the 2016 event and we were delighted to assist.

The conference took place at the Marriott Hotel in Leicester, a venue that we have worked at several times previously, and was to be for 300 people.

 

Pre Production

Our production team met with Anicca at their offices to discuss the event and provided an itemised quotation which covered all their requirements. We ensured that the same team who met with the client to discuss the event were on site for the conference itself to ensure its smooth running.

 

Build

As the venue was available the night before the event, our crew installed the AV equipment overnight. This allowed our AV technicians and project manager to arrive on site early on the show day, they had to simply turn everything on, without the hassle of setting up the equipment first.

Due to the number of delegates in attendance we opted for a twin screen stage set, this consisted of 2x 10’ 8” fast fold screens and a 34’ wide set structure to house them in. An 11m wide carpeted stage sat in front of the set structure. Our bar stools were placed on the stage for the Q&A section of the conference as well as an acrylic lectern.

Video content was projected using 2x 5600 lumen Panasonic projectors, in full HD. Content included PowerPoint and video files, we used an Analogue Way Pulse 2 seamless switcher / scaler to ensure the smooth running of the video content. We provided 42” LCD screens as comfort monitors for the presenters, allowing them to see the content that was being projected behind them, when they were on stage. A wireless clicker was provided, allowing them to easily advance their slide shows.

To ensure that all the delegates could clearly hear all the content we used a PA system consisting of 6x L-Acoustics 8XT’s. We provided 4 channels of radio mic for the presenters as well as 2x DPA headsets and a pair of lectern mics. A USB player was provided to play background music during the breaks throughout the event. All audio content was ran through a Yamaha LS9-16 digital desk.

Lighting for the stage was provided using 4x profile lights, these were mounted on wind up stands half way down the venue. The set structure was uplit using Elation SixBar 1000’s.
