Music Stars Shine at this Year's ARIA Awards

HONG KONG, Dec. 21 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Lighthouse Technologies, in partnership with Bytecraft Entertainment, today announced the provision of video support for the 2005 ARIA Awards held at the Sydney Superdome on October 23, 2005.

Recognizing excellence and innovation across all genres of Australian music, the ARIA Awards are held annually in front of 3,000 industry guests and 6,000 members of the public and are watched by two million people via a live Network Ten broadcast.

Bytecraft Entertainment, a video solutions provider and Lighthouse's local partner, was responsible for the management and the integration of the video technology on display which featured the projection of stunning video images via several different Lighthouse screens.

The most dynamic set elements encompassed two Lighthouse R16, 16mm LED video displays that prominently featured on stage, aired real-time coverage of music trailers, artist performances and the awards presentations.

Other set elements in which Lighthouse screens were used included three 10mm LED displays that together totaled 3.84 metres wide x 2.4 metres high in size.

Also provided were a further two Lighthouse 16mm video displays positioned as 3.06 metres wide x 4.57 metres high, and 8.13 metres wide x 6.1 metres high respectively. These panels helped to deliver close-up images of the evening's entertainment to the show's audience.

According to Geoff Ellery of Bytecraft Entertainment, Lighthouse video products were adopted for the 2005 ARIA Awards as they were considered to be the best choice for such a high profile event.

"The sharp clarity and high brightness of Lighthouse Technologies' large- scale LED video products make them ideal for use with broadcast and television lighting," said Mr Ellery.

"Over the years, Bytecraft Entertainment, working in partnership with Lighthouse, has been fortunate to have established the trust of producers of prestigious, televised industry programmes.
