ShowPro Rocks the 50th Annual Grammy Awards
ShowPro, Inc. provided over 1,000 high resolution Element Lab VersaTubes for the 50th annual Grammy Awards at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on February 10.
The VersaTubes are part of a design collaboration between Emmy award winning lighting designer Bob Dickinson and scenic artist Brian Stonestreet. Mounted into moving set pieces that open and close to reveal performance areas on the stage, the unique configuration of the VersaTubes takes advantage of, not only the point source effect of the tubes, but also reflected light due to the finish on the set pieces. The final product is a fascinating combination of high-tech digital lighting and classic theatrical light box effects.
“It’s great to see such a creative and impactful use of LED display on this show,” says company president David Smith. “This further exemplifies the visual convergence of video and lighting.”
The Grammy Awards is produced by John Cossette Productions in collaboration with The Recording Academy.
ShowPro is a full service production company that specializes in LED display, lighting, scenic projection, audio and video production services for award shows, corporate meetings and special events.
