Urban Visuals’ latest production at the Vancouver Convention Centre was a big hit. Blueprint Events brought Benny Benassi and Armin van Buuren for a double header DJ show, and we provided Stage Design and visual production for the event.

We were so busy with the show that we didn’t get a chance to document, but we found these clips from a happy attendee.

A long shot of the show.

As the first concert to be hosted at the Convention Centre, we had to be sure everything went smoothly and according to plan. The ten video projectors were driven all driven by Modul8 on one Mac Pro and three Macbook Pros. On the LED side, we had 600 nodes of Colorkinetics iflex and 14 CK Colorblaze units all driven by Madrix.

In September 2009, we installed an LED canopy and custom screen setup for the Blueprint 12th Anniversary Party at the Commodore Ballroom. The event featured acts Steve Aoki and MSTRKRFT and was sponsored by Red Bull. The show was a blast, and while we didn’t get to document it much, I did find these fantastic photos from David Lang’s site. The LED Canopy is built of 16 panels each 20″ by 96″. Each of the panels can be hung individually or combined in any orientation.

The video screens are custom built 40″ squares that create two 10′ x 10′ screens. It’s always fun to work with irregular screen shapes and especially screens that are made of a selection of smaller screens.

Some short clips are below the photos.

Here’s some video clips we shot of the event.
