Video Systems

Three production contexts, three different responsibilities: creation and touring continuity, creation-phase video-system work, and touring installation plus show operation.

Entre chien et loup
Christiane Jatahy

I participated in the creation and then in the touring life of the production. The video system functioned as a stage instrument: preparation, venue adaptation, local-team coordination, testing, troubleshooting, multilingual surtitling and reliable handover all had to remain connected.

During the Geneva creation phase, the video-control environment combined cameras, mapped surfaces, DataPath distribution, networked control and a large cue vocabulary coordinated with the stage process.

En transit
Amir Reza Koohestani

On selected touring dates I installed, calibrated, operated and struck the complete video system: stage cameras, projection, remote control between stage and FOH, and a dedicated three-screen surtitling chain.
