Zig Zag Helps Serious Organised Crime Agency
Zig Zag Lighting supplied the lighting and rigging to Amplitude AV of Bradford for a 12-date conference tour throughout the UK for the new Serious Organised Crime Agency. The aim of the conference was to integrate the pre-cursor organisations into the new agency prior to the full launch of SOCA on 3rd April.
They used a mixture of conventional Source Fours and Fresnels, and intelligent lights in the form of AC’s Tourspot, and 24 ChromaQ DB4 colour blocks to create an understated yet interesting look. The venues, ranging from London to Bolton and Birmingham presented most of the challenges.
Lighting operator Richard George said: “Fitting the set and all its attendant lighting and AV equipment into some of the smaller venues was a real challenge at times, especially from the power side of things. Then there were the problems of making the set seem to fill the largest venues. The colour blocks were great because they meant we could get lots of fixtures spread around to fill the room but had no problems with limited power available at the smaller venues, as they are an LED fixture.” Also used at some venues were 30 LED Par64 fixtures to light backdrops where space allowed.
The AV and sound equipment was supplied and rigged by Amplitude AV. The set was fabricated and erected by S&J Carpentry Ltd. of Romford.
