Picture this: A star-studded award ceremony, broadcast live to millions across the nation, all happening on a unique circular stage. Sounds exciting, right? Well, for Vincent Fong, our lighting maestro, it was both thrilling and challenging. Let’s dive into how LQE turned this high-stakes lighting puzzle into a dazzling success!

Setting the Stage: A Circle of Challenges

When Vincent Fong got the call to light up this prestigious award ceremony, he knew he was in for quite a ride. “A round stage for a live TV broadcast? That’s not your everyday lighting gig,” Vincent chuckles. “It’s like being asked to paint a masterpiece, but the canvas is a giant pizza!”

Vincent’s Lighting Wishlist: Perfection in the Round

Vincent’s to-do list was as demanding as a diva’s rider:

1. 360° of Flawless: Light up the circular stage evenly, ensuring no awkward shadows or dark spots.
2. Broadcast-Ready Brilliance: Achieve a high color rendering index (CRI) to make colors pop on TV screens nationwide.
3. Quiet on the Set: Use fixtures with ultra-low noise levels to keep the mics happy.
4. Flicker-Free Zone: Ensure all lights are flicker-free for smooth camera work.
5. The Full Monty of Lighting: Design a comprehensive setup with front, side, top, and foot lighting.
6. Adaptable Ambiance: Create versatile lighting that can shift moods for different award categories and performances.

“I needed lighting that could do more tricks than a circus performer,” Vincent grins. “That’s when I knew I had to call in the big guns—LQE.”
