For the seventh year in a row, XL Video has supplied the Brit Awards, held at London’s Earls Court.
The company provided screens, projection, an HD PPU and control for the show, which was broadcast live on ITV1 across the UK as well as to a worldwide audience overseas.
The centre onstage screen elements consisted of 80sq m of 11mm F-LED, a product that has been specially developed by and for XL, while a further 30sq m of Lighthouse 7mm was utilised for the presenter screen.
An integral element of the stage design was a pyramid shaped projection backdrop, which was fed by 12 Christie S20+ projectors all rigged and focused at different angles.
Four Catalyst media servers were programmed and run via a WholeHog II console. In addition, the playback set up featured two Doremi hard drives, a Virtual VTR and two stills stores.
Outputs from all of these – two GV LDK 8000 HD cameras also supplied by XL as part of the IMAG mix – together with seven broadcast camera feeds were all processed via a Barco Encore multi-screen control system.
One of XL’s HD PPUs was at the core of the live screen IMAG mix, which was based around a Grass Valley HD Kayak mixer, fed by the two XL cameras plus another seven HD feeds supplied from the CTV OB.
XL also supplied two flown side projection screens that were fed by Barco ELMs, and also inserted PiP IMAG into the pyramid projection system.
