Jerry Appelt Stages TV Total WOK WM with Cameo

For more than 20 years, the TV Total WOK World Championships have been as much a part of winter sports television as the Four Hills Tournament or the Streif downhill in Kitzbühel. On the 1.6 km long bobsleigh track in Winterberg, Germany, the single and quad woks reach top speeds of up to 115 km/h. As is usual in modern sports television, the focus of the production is not only on the competition itself, but also on the surrounding program of presenters, guests, and music acts. For this reason, the lighting team – led by Jerry Appelt – and the overall technical service provider Cape Cross opted for flexible Cameo spotlights such as the OTOS B5 IP65 beam moving head, the S4 IP LED softlights, and the ZENIT W600 SMD from the ZENIT W600 Series, which is widely used in the industry.Read More »Jerry Appelt Stages TV Total WOK WM with Cameo
