Throwing it back to the Knox Grammar School School’s Centenary Tattoo. A production that was about a lot more than just getting the gear in and getting the show on.
For Knox Grammar School’s Centenary Tattoo, CMG Audio Visual & Touring provided full-service production management and technical direction, taking the production from pre-production through to the final performance.
With more than 800 performers across 14 acts, the show brought together choirs, orchestras, concert bands, rock bands, drum ensembles and massed pipe bands, all moving through a huge arena production.
CMG’s team was across the entire technical picture, from pre-vis lighting design and programming, bespoke rolling stages and risers, custom gobos and special effects, through to a full-range Meyer Sound arena system and a multi-destination Barco E2 system handling screens, relay and broadcast.
The audio and broadcast setup was just as comprehensive, with a Midas Heritage-D HD96 network connecting dedicated FOH, monitor and broadcast engineers, wireless microphone systems supporting the many performers and ensembles, and a redundant multi-camera live broadcast bringing the celebration to the wider Knox community.
A big production, a lot of moving parts and we were there to bring it all together making sure every element worked. Planning your next large-scale event? Let’s talk about how CMGAV can bring the full production 📢🌟
