Sportive Show: Adidas RSOM ’07 Trained with grandMA in Malaysia
Once a year Adidas hold their strategy meeting - the Adidas RSOM. During the conference the company introduces its plans for 2008 to its regional sales operation marketing. This year the meeting took place in Kuala Lumpur’s convention centre. Around 700 dealers and distributors attended the event which was spiced up with a sophisticated show. Fares Aljunied created the lighting design using a grandMA light and a grandMA video media server.
Aljunied, who was also the programmer and operator for the show, reported: “To make the show interesting, I used the grandMA video media server to control 46 units of Barco Mipix-20. The grandMA light controlled all the lighting fixtures as well as the media server. Last year I used a grandMA for the first time and since then it has been my choice of console. The flexibility, reliability and robustness are the best I‘ve ever seen.”
The grandMA video media server allows for the use of 32 layers. It’s also possible to reboot or shutdown all connected MA mediaPCs centrally from the grandMA and to switch to the Pixel Mapper mode from the console. Furthermore the Sniffer-mode offers the control of 254 grandMA video stations from one grandMA. The grandMA video media server is a fully integrated part of the grandMA network system and not just triggered via DMX. This has many advantages. Not only a minimum of setup and configuration is required due to bi-directional communication between the console and the grandMA video software, but also the grandMA console allows for direct access to the server.
The lighting rig for the show comprised 16 Vari*Lite VL3000 spots, 12 Vari*Lite VL3000 washes, six Vari*Lite VL1000ASs, six Vari*Lite VL2500 spots, 10 Color Kinetics ColorBlazes, 10 Color Kinetics ColorBlasts, six City Color 1800s and two Martin Atomic 3ks.
SCM Singapore and Audio Resources Pte Ltd delivered the lighting equipment.
