LEEDS, UK – New sessions have been added to the free program of seminars, demonstrations and tutorials taking place at PLASA Focus: Leeds 2013, at the Royal Armouries at Clarence Dock, only a short distance from the center of Leeds, West Yorkshire, on Tuesday, April 30 and Wednesday, May 1, 2013.
In addition to a two-hall exhibition of the latest entertainment technology products, visitors can check out the PLASA Professional Development Program, which offers more than 20 free-to-attend sessions presented by some of the most talented names in pro audio, lighting and video.
In the last year, the UK has played host to several large-scale events, including the Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the Queens Diamond Jubilee. Next year, Glasgow will host the Commonwealth Games. In Light, Spectacle and the Large-Scale Event, a panel of experts, brought together by the ALD, explain how lighting designers approach the design brief, what technical and logistical aspects need to be taken into consideration, and the importance of collaboration, innovation and imagination when designing large-scale events.
Running in parallel with the professional training, expert presentations and educational seminars in the Professional Development Program are the product based demonstrations that provide visitors with opportunities to access training and knowledge on the most up-to-the-minute products on the market.
Lighting and Video – the Integration, the Benefits, the Future presented by Avolites will provide an overview of the latest features of their Titan V7 and Ai media server.
In Wireless Lighting Control in a Co-Existence Environment, Wireless Solution explains the difference between the products available and how to combine protocols such as DMX, RDM, Art-Net and s/ACN. The session will also include demonstrations to provide the audience with tips on how to avoid some common traps along with an understanding of how to get the best results from wireless technology for both installation and rental projects.
