Lighting Uplighter Hire Grafiiti Tunnel Waterloo

Lasers & Uplighter Hire Waterloo London 4th March 2013

Lights and Smoke machine Hire in London specifically in the Graffiti Tunnel which is part of  a labyrinth of old railway tunnels known collectively as the 'Old Vic Tunnels' near Waterloo station
We were hired by Tro-Group  who were organising a 6K run through London as part of a promotion of a new trainer shoe manufactured by the Sporting Clothing giant Nike. This being one our bigger and more interesting events so far this year.
The organiser Michelle wanted lots of Pink lighting and loads of smoke  for the runners to race through with the accompanying sounds of two Beatbox singers. It had to be "Urban"
It was definitely that. Over the course of three nights we witnessed a vicious brawl between some drunk East Europeans , an anarchic group of urban street singers with their loud stereo and the normal selection of waifs and strays.
My son Barney helped with the install. Using ten battery operated up lighter par cans set to a pink colour,. 2 x bank of 4 scanners and two pink lasers. The 'coup de grace' was a hired Jem low fog machine known as a Glaciator (£5000.00 to buy new) which with the help of ducting threw out a huge dense cloud of fog which was needed as the considerable down draught coming through the tunnel made the fog dissipate rather quickly. Using a 6KVA generator to power the 'Glaciator. and a Honda 3KVA generator to power the lights
The event was partly promoted by using British Olympians inc. the delectable Hannah England doing photo-shoots amongst the light-show
The whole production was very challenging but enjoyable mainly down to the uniqueness and location of the event.

Corporate Karaoke London

X Factor Karaoke night Mayfair London 20th December 2012

Specialising in X-Factor karaoke nights for those events where you want more than your typical Karaoke 'down the pub' show
So what did we provide at this event for a law firm called Fosters in swanky Mayfair London?
Firstly a 2 x 2 metre carpeted portable stage , 2 x flat TV screens . Radio microphones for the singers plus SM58 microphones on stands,stage monitors, 2 x front of house EV speakers, 12 channel desk mixer with reverb effects. par can up lighters for the stage backdrop and an equinox LED mega bar to give the singers a light show to perform under, an operator to load the karaoke songs, play background music and liaise with the compere.
The night was a noisy affair , four employees with paper masks representing the judges normally associated with the X Factor programme e.g. Cheryl Cole, Louis, Gary Barlow etc and a further employee pretending to be the host of X.Factor (Demott). All played their parts brilliantly with help of copious amounts of alcohol, especially the judges!
The singers to be fair were above average and a couple who sang "Fairytale of New York" won a bottle of champagne for their troubles

Lighting Hire West London

Lighting hire Bayswater London 20th September 2012

Whiteleys (in their luxurious Odeon cinema called the 'Lounge') at Bayswater was the location for a lighting hire job that we were doing for a Vodafone corporate event.
The lighting was actually been used in one of the cinemas during the day before an actual film showing later that night.
They wanted 4 spotlights to illuminate a table that would have 4 persons chairing the conference.  Four LED parcan uplighters hired to give a colour fade wash on the blank cinema screen and the 'coup de grace' a couple of lasers hired to give a 'wow' factor effect at the end of the event.
Realy nic guys from Vodaphone and they paid in advance (very trusting set of souls). The guy from Whitelys on site was called Alex and whilst setting up he  treated my ears to some vintage Bowie tracks. You know my job is great sometimes .
