FEATURED CASE STUDY / ORLANDO, FLORIDA
McKesson Medical-Surgical Government Sales Conference
Clement C. Perera · EIC & Barco E2 Engineer
A 14,256 × 1,584 LED canvas and a varied source package called for flexible screen management, camera integration and dedicated backup capacity. Clement led the video engineering for this corporate production.
The brief
Bring together live cameras, presentation machines and Millumin playback on a large corporate stage while keeping routing and show operation adaptable.
The system approach
Two Barco E2 processors handled screen management. Dedicated routers and a Ross Carbonite Ultra with Ultrix supported the wider video system. Six Helios processors were divided into three main and three backup units for the LED package.
Operational focus
Separate machines for Millumin, Keynote Wide and PowerPoint gave the production distinct playback resources. Main and backup LED processing supported the priority of reliability during the live show.
