  • Magic Miss election

    The Arena Stade Couvert in Liévin hosted the Miss Nord Pas-de-Calais election this weekend. The 14 title contenders marched on the theme of cinema. In front of an exceptional jury and 2,800 captivated spectators, the winner will represent the region in the national Miss France 2022 contest.

    A very beautiful scene where the candidates followed one another, highlighted by a design of Vincent Nackaert for Samedi Soir Production, with the technical sound, light and video means of Stienne Production, which deployed their new Starway projectors with 24 Aperta and 24 Modena.

    The new Starway automatics won us over with their small size, lightness and exceptional brightness. We replaced our old Starway beams with the new Aperta, giving us even more power and trichromy. As for the Modena, we like their zoom opening which allows us to wash / beam freely”, Eric Stienne, manager of Stienne Production.

  • Batteries of light

    20 meters under the cobblestones of Arras, the Quarry of Wellington is a place steeped in memory and emotion. During the First World War, thousands of soldiers were stationed there, a few meters from the front line, before setting out on April 9, 1917 in the Battle of Arras. A symbolic place often used by the local Tourist Office, as a few days ago, where guests of a CAC40 business seminar were invited to walk through 500 meters of galleries to their reception room installed in the underground quarry of Bleinheim.

    Maneuvering to illuminate the accesses and the various rooms of the quarry, One Event Live has deployed a great array of Starway battery-powered projectors: 48 EarthKolor, 24 WindKolor and 26 BoxKolor UHD in the galleries for an exceptional lighting, plus 4 CityKolor 5410 HD in the reception room.

    "When it comes to highlighting exceptional places that are particularly difficult to access, we never hesitate to use our Starway battery powered spotlights. They give us the full range of power needed to showcase all places, from the most intimate to the most majestic, while protecting us from the constraints of a mains power supply", the technical team of One Events Live.

  • A little paradise

    Located in the "Var", in "Six-Fours-les-Plages", the island of Embiez is a land of paradise. Renowned for its verdant nature, its coves, its wild creeks and its protected ecosystem, the island of Embiez is also an emblematic place that offers the necessary infrastructure for the organization of any type of professional or private event. 

    The provider LBC Pro often takes care of events organized on the island, such as here for a company seminar that organized an outdoor DJ party. Lighting that was deliberately economical in terms of the number of machines energized the dance floor with 8 Dino and 8 Modena from Starway. 

    In addition to their compact size, like our Dinos, essential here for easy installation, we appreciated the great versatility of our new Modena. Their zoom, which allows a wide focal opening angle, their speed and their power allow a great creative freedom, while offering a great economy of means for reasoned services”, Boris Brincat, manager of LBC Pro.

  • Perfect tribute

    So Floyd Tribute brings a new dimension to the demanding exercise to honor the famous British band. The all-live show perfectly recreates the sonic and visual magic that contributed to Pink Floyd's stage success.

    A production that begins its activity with two great performances at the Arènes de Frejus and the Zenith in Toulon. Designed, produced and produced by PAN POT, it reflects all their artistic and technical know-how. The lighting impresses with a gigantic ring which hosts 36 Aperta by Starway on its perimeter, and in its center, depending on the scenes, a video projection image or a StarPanel LED screen.

  • A summer in Marseille

    For the second edition of "L’été Marseillais", the city of Marseille offered even more events and pedestrianized part of the Old Port. During the months of July and August, the Quai du Port et de la Fraternité, as well as the Place Bargemon, allowed Marseillais and visitors to stroll in peace between the Ombrière and the Saint-Jean Fort.

    To reinforce the existing urban lighting and enhance the spaces, the municipality called on the service provider Mediacom. The chosen solution was deployed in the form of 35 x 5.50 m high totems, dressed in the colors of the event and equipped in all with 24 ToneKolor 4406HD and 11 StormLite HD from Starway.

    "On this service, we selected Starway products, which perfectly met the energy saving requirements and obtaining a beautiful warm white desired by our customer. Thanks to their particularly high lighting level, we were able to manage all the spaces with a single projector per totem, with total reliability ", Eric Algoud, manager of Mediacom.

  • Negotiations in live

    Having become the unmissable event for students, professionals and teachers who share the same passion for sales, Les Négociales, whose reach now extends internationally, was exceptionally held this year at the Palais des Congrès in Nancy. That is to say more than 80 virtual rooms relayed in multiplex during 3 days of negotiations to elect the best negotiators.

    Welcoming juries and partner companies, the Negociales platform was installed and operated entirely by Ovation, service provider of the event for sound, light, video recording and streaming. An impressive management of video streams, while guaranteeing a beautiful image thanks to Starway lighting: 8 Dino, 12 Servo Color 4K, 8 Callisto, 8 Dynakolor, 6 PcKolor DW and 12 BoxKolor UHD

    Dino, associated with Servo Color 4K, allowed us to obtain a very nice rendering to the image. Their very precise zoom allowed us to easily focus the speakers on the set. They also managed all the dynamic animations for the enhancement of the highlights of the live  event", Vincent Albiser, manager of Ovation.

  • Like masters!

    Coldplayed is the story of four friends, Coldplay fans, who once challenged themselves to pay tribute to them. They founded their first French tribute band by recreating in great detail the same atmosphere as that of their idols' concerts, offering the public all the magic of a spectacular show of great musical quality.

    To realize the lighting design of Maxime Ducamps, service provider 2MTS proposed a 100% Starway light kit composed of 8 Dino, 12 Servo BWS 20R, 12 Servo Pix 10K, 10 Servo Color 4K, 8 SuperKolor HD, 2 Stronglite HD and 8 Floodite 650, complemented by a StarPanel LED display.

    "Thanks to the great diversity of projectors in our Starway park, we were able to provide all the solutions to meet the needs of the show. The BWS 20Rs were particularly effective here with their projection of gobos on the architecture of the Town Hall, creating a very beautiful backdrop. And our brand new Dino shone with their exceptional rendering and ease of use thanks to their low weight and their single-tube base. A test move that turns into a masterstroke throughout the tour ", Marcel Martin, manager of 2MTS.

  • A bunch of beams

    On July 14, the city of Cambrai paid homage to General de Gaulle this year. Remaining one of the few fireworks fired in the city center, this is an opportunity to highlight the Town Hall with architectural lighting of the building and volumetric lighting accompanying the pyrotechnic show.

    In charge of the lighting creation and performance, Adic'Son chose Starway for an ultra efficient kit: 12 Servo Beam 5R installed on the balcony of the town hall produced the volumetric effects, while 18 Ariane 1430 FC bars managed full lighting of the building.

    "While the essential Servo Beam 5R is no longer to be presented, we were really blown away by the new Ariane LED bars. With plenty of power and a truly uniform solid color, we only needed 18 machines to light the entire building. In addition, the possibility of cascading them simplifies the wiring, so that you can be ready to go in less than an hour ", Jean-Marie Lemaire, lighting designer at Adic’son.

  • Luxurious autonomy

    The Château de Tilly in the Eure charms its visitors and offers top-of-the-range services. Completely renovated, it offers 4 luxurious and unique spaces, distributed in the castle and in its orangery for the organization of events, seminars and weddings.

    Regular provider of the castle, LS Events took advantage of the beauty of the place to do a magnificent inspirational shoot on the Starway projectors that it regularly uses for its enhancement: the LiciaKolor excel in the lighting of terraces and stairs and the EarthKolor, here installed on a stand, fully reveal the space of the orangery.

    Starway battery powered floodlights are our favorite spotlights in those places where the need for cabling is essential. We offer our Liciakolor with three tube sizes. Its chrome case blends in with any décor and its column effect is ideal for red carpet arrivals or enhancing terraces or stairs. For architects, the power of Earthkolor allows you to color large spaces with a reduced number of machines ”, Dylan Rozay, Managing Director of LS Events.

  • Beams at the campsite

    The 4-star "Domaine du Collet" campsite, located near Pornic, offers its customers a different, specific and high-end quality of stay. In this vast property where a body of water, meadows and woods form an original landscape flirting with sand dunes and the Atlantic see, a space dedicated to shows hosts daily festive events.

    To transform this old barn of 400 m2, Make It Event has proposed a simple but ultra efficient light bundle. A few mirror balls and 6 Starway Servo Beam 5R projectors are more than enough to create a club atmosphere that is very popular with holidaymakers. A wi-fi controllable DMX E-Board 1024 MKIII box allows the management of the different lighting programs according to the animations.

    “The Servo Beam 5R has been one of our favorite Starway projectors for many years. Very reliable, we appreciate its power and the very good definition of its beam. This is undeniably the best value for money for installations like this ”, Matt Richard, Project Manager at Make It Event.

  • Very real illusions

    L'Héritier de l'Illusion is THE magic festival in France organized by S2A productions. Due to the pandemic, its fourth edition in 2021 turned into an impressive live streaming event in which 7 artists competed in front of an exceptional jury.

    If the illusion is in the spotlight, the magic is also on the set thanks to the many technologies and XR filming means. What could be better than augmented reality to highlight the illusion, if not an exceptional lighting with a demonstration of automatics, bringing together Aperta and Dino from Starway for a magical light.

    “In this room without a spectator, we needed to create a luminous dynamic on the stage but also in place of the absent audience, to animate the shots of the jury. Nothing better than Aperta for this. This latest Starway LED beam is light, ultra economical and very efficient with precise beams and very beautiful colors. It was therefore easy to install and multiply”, Arthur Oudin, lighting designer.

  • Stars Screen

    With a beautiful and solid team of professional artists and technicians and in close collaboration with Yann Dubois and his event production company Undershow, the Ambre 9 orchestra, under the direction of Franck Ocana, is a major player in dance evenings and variety shows in the Paris region and throughout France, for over 25 years. 

    During the filming of their last promotional clip, Yann Dubois and his team deployed a LED wall made up of Starway StarPanel modules, installed on totems and platforms, as a backdrop, creating a 3-dimensional decor with infinite possibilities and breathtaking rendering, both live and in photo and video. The lighting was completed in particular by Servo Spot 15K and Servo Beam 2R moving heads.

    Some time before the pandemic, we were lucky enough to be able to test our LED wall during our last 'Disco Live Fever' show as well as for the shooting of our new promotional clip. We were totally won over by the high image quality and the modularity of the screen which perfectly dresses and sublimates the scenes, from the most humble to the largest. We can't wait to get back on board soon and further explore all the possible configurations and the exceptional potential of our StarPanel », Yann Dubois, manager of Undershow

  • Gypsy lights

    The Gipsy Band is a group of seven gypsy musicians from Rouen. Very popular in the Normandy region, they perform on numerous stages in France and abroad and are about to release their third album, arranged and produced by the masters of gypsy music.

    In order to anticipate the scenic activity which will soon restart intensively, the group calls on the company Elecson of the EnScène Group for the production of its new show. For this, a light show was designed mainly around a Starway kit, versatile and efficient, capable of adapting to any type of room. It includes 9 automatic Dino projectors, 8 Servo Color 4K, 4 Maxi Vega and 12 Callisto.

    Among all the Vega, it is the Maxi that we fell in love with. It imposes his presence on stage and that's what we appreciate. It fills the space, makes a very strong vintage impact, and we use it as much for effects, lighting or as a blinder. As for the Dino, it impresses us with its power in an ultra compact housing. Its colorimetry is perfect with powerful reds, super versatile, we use it everywhere ”, Guillaume Thuillier, technical light director at Elecson.

  • A maximum of studio concerts

    When the old studio at the Kodak factory in Chalon-sur-Saône is transformed into a real live streaming studio thanks to the video resources of Constance Production, it becomes the ideal place to do concerts, like the concert of Little Max produced by BigMax Creation production.

    To materialize the scene in this relatively small space, the sound and light provider Perfect Live has mainly chosen Starway to provide lighting adapted to the constraints of video, with 8 Vega and 4 Ariane LED bars for stage decoration, as well as SuperKolor HD color changers for the front stage.

    Our Vega are particularly suitable for this type of service which is increasingly regular at the moment. Much easier to manage and above all much more impactful than traditional projectors, their aesthetics make it possible to obtain a very beautiful rendering to the image. Like the Ariane, their power is also an asset for producing beautiful colors on the screen”, Julien Poitoux, manager of Perfect live.

  • Quite a menu!

    At the center of the wellknown flea market of Villeurbanne, the restaurant Oscar is reinventing itself a new life by transforming its seminar space into a TV set. Artistic performances, corporate seminars, shows and games, the menu is big.

    To make it a studio dedicated to Live streaming, the sound, light and video provider VSS has deployed all its know-how. Special care is taken in shooting with careful lighting, thanks to the use of Starway Orion and BoxKolor UHD projectors.

    We love the Orion’s lighting capabilities. This atypical projector brings a beautiful presence in the scenographies. The independent control of each of its lamps and its vintage effect immediately creates a beautiful decor with few machines. In addition to the BoxKolor UHD, which we can place discreetly, we create in a few minutes a beautiful universe of shooting”, Benjamin Blanc, director of VSS.

  • All on battery

    It was a few months ago in an abandoned garage on rue Amelot in Paris. The carmaker Mazda took the opportunity to invite dealers and the press to the European launch of its new electric car, the MX30.

    Working to transform the place, service provider Pompadour managed the entire technical and logistical service. A scenography guided visitors through two exhibition floors highlighting the brand's emblematic vehicles, before arriving in a completely reconstructed cork oak forest. To meet the customer's energy requirements, 180 Starway battery-powered projectors were deployed, including BoxKolor UHD, LightKolor, EventKolor and 2 Dino automatic projectors for deliberately refined dynamic lighting.

    Producing beautiful colors, beautiful atmospheres, everywhere, quickly and without any constraints, is our constant challenge in events. Starway battery-powered projectors give us the freedom to create, modify and adapt our lighting, with the added discretion of their chrome housing that blends into any décor ”, François-Xavier Marchal, Technical Director of Pompadour.

  • Dynamic display

    As dynamic display in the city has become essential, screen surfaces are multiplying. Whether it is to disseminate the communication of town halls and local authorities or commercial advertisements, the installer Lynxmedia offers high-performance solutions with a historical specialty to pharmacy pharmacies.

    Lynxmedia integrates its screens in made-to-measure media or real street furniture. The majority of its non-transparent screens are made with Starway StarPanels. They are equipped with a Novastar TB3 interface which allows them to be controlled locally or remotely, while offering a stand-alone player that is easy to program.

    Indoors and outdoors, we make the majority of our screens with StarPanel video panels. We particularly appreciate their modularity and reliability, and their pitch is perfectly suited to near and far vision, required by the information needs of our customers. In addition, their high brightness allows us to manage a dynamic display that is always perfectly visible even with very strong sunlight, by automatically adjusting it thanks to an external sensor”, Alexandre Marchal, manager of Lynxmedia.

  • Original Live streaming

    While DJ sets are topical in today's live streaming landscape, those organized by Night Event's Production are particularly noteworthy. Whether for FG with a shot on the Amp stage or for a broadcast on Twitch and Facebook with those shot in their premises transformed into a video set, the light signature is original.

    Technical event provider, Night Event's Production has created its signature by integrating into its TV sets Starway LiciaKolor that they just acquired. Its 18 machines allow to obtain an original decoration and particularly remarkable effects by a very beautiful rendering to the image.

    We have just completed our Starway fleet, which is already rich in BoxKolor UHD and EventKolor, with LiciaKolor, which really won us over. On the visual side, the mirror effect of their chromed body allows them to be fully integrated into the decor, and their light tubes allow their use as much in markup as in subdued lighting. On battery and controlled by wireless DMX, they simply avoid the cables on the set. Since we have them, they are on all our lives and the reactions are there”, Tom Duval, manager of Night Event’s Production.

  • Pitch on Twitch

    Last week-end, gamers were invited to stay comfortably on their sofa to find the special “Winter” edition of Start To Play on Twitch, 100% digital and live! Dynamic and fun, several highlights were offered throughout the event, including esport competitions, conferences, challenges and interviews with prestigious guests.

    A loyal provider and partner of Start To Play events which usually take place face-to-face, the service provider Standby wanted to continue to add its personal touch by offering its lighting design and LED screen on the Via Storia TV set. So in the background, a screen measuring 4 by 2.5 meters, judiciously placed on the ground and composed of StarPanel modules, made a very good impression by enhancing the images of interviews and video games. Also on the set, some BoxKolor UHD projectors which colored the spaces here and there.

    “We wanted to rediscover part of the DNA of Start To Play events in digital and the big screen is an essential part of that. It seemed obvious to us to also offer it here to boost the staging. Our StarPanel screen, easily usable indoors once its brightness was reduced to 10% and the video synchronized, produced a very beautiful image rendering, for an exceptional live that the organizer and the spectators greatly appreciated”, Loïc Truntzer, manager of Standby.

  • Control of luminous flux

    Since January 14 and throughout the winter holiday season, the dam of the valley of Tignes lights up every evening from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. It then impresses the whole valley thanks to a scenography designed by Nicolas Galloux, which sublimates the majestic character of the highest dam in France.

    To achieve the light mapping of the entire structure, the S-Group Rhône-Alpes agency has deployed part of its fleet of automatic IP Aqua projectors from Starway. Installed at the foot of the dam and without any protection against bad weather and extreme temperatures, 7 Aqua 480 BWS and 10 Aqua 580 BWS ensure the show, without encountering the slightest technical problem.

    “Although we have been using Aqua projectors for several months on many demanding services such as Fort Boyard, Asterix…, we must admit that here they have particularly impressed us. Despite a projection distance of 120 m at the bottom of the dam which extends 200 m at the top, we were able to achieve full lighting thanks to the perfect control of the luminous flux that these high-performance and resistant machines offer us”, Sébastien Gauthier, project manager at S-Group Rhône-Alpes.

  • A luminous night

    At the foot of the Eiffel Tower, the Pullmann hotel was this Saturday the Parisian meeting place for lovers for an exceptional event, "Time For Love". A magical and unique moment for an unforgettable hotel night, accompanied by a gastronomic dinner and a concert live from the hotel and broadcast in streaming in each room.

    To immortalize this very special night, the Parisian branch of the technical provider Production 85 imagined, thanks to an adapted selection of Starway projectors, a lighting to match the event. Outside, 16 Ariane 1430FC LED bars illuminated the entire facade. Inside, 8 Servo Color 4K and 6 Servo BWS 10R energized the stage image for live streaming.

    “The lighting of the facade was complex because it was not possible to install the lighting on the sidewalk. We had to put the spotlight on only the hotel and restaurant caps while ensuring a homogeneous light, able to reach the top floor despite the many balconies. When we lit the Arianes, we were won over. Bright, beautiful colors and capable of generating very pure white, these are some exceptional bars. They will undoubtedly be a must for all the next events already scheduled by the hotel", Mickael Percot, Manager of Production 85.

  • Columns in the spotlight

    The Grand Center district is a key element in the influence of the city of Cergy. For its end-of-year celebrations, the Cergy Pontoise agglomeration community decided to install beautiful illuminations in accordance with a "blue and white" color chart.

    The lighting was entrusted to the company Backline which composed with the elements of the existing decorations: the trees and street furniture of the Place "Charles de Gaulle" and the large hall "Hubert Renaud", thus creating a backdrop lending itself perfectly to the game. 24 Starway's MiniKolor LED PAR illuminated the columns of the hall including its ceiling height, and the opacity of the curtains allowed the creation of an impressive natural cyclo with many chaser effects. 8 Servo Beam 2R positioned on the ceiling of this room were enough to manage all the external dynamic effects, with perfectly controlled beams highlighted by the humidity present in this season. On the "Place des Arts", Backline used 4 of its “Medusa” lights. This product, created in-house, uses the full capabilities of Starway's SupraKolor LED PAR with its 8 to 40° zoom perfectly suited to the dimensions of the luminaire. To bring dynamism and complementary colors to the Medusas, 4 Servo Beam 2R have been judiciously installed to make the Medusas in the wind even more “alive”. The existing Servo Beam 2R gobos proved to be a perfect fit for the theme of the event.

    “In this type of low-light urban lighting, the use of small Starway machines is ideal. Their lighting is sufficient and the life of their lamps allows lighting over long periods. In addition, their low consumption is a strong argument here where the daily electricity consumption is displayed on a huge counter in the reception hall of the urban community", Jacques Collette, manager of Backline.

  • Batteries in the spotlight

    In the heart of the main courtyard of the Departmental Fire and Rescue Service of the Ain, the statue of the war memorial is a real landmark for firefighters and related services, who celebrate there throughout the year numerous tributes and official ceremonies.

    The original statue lighting project proposed to the installer "Concept Son" described the use of permanently recessed spotlights. But faced with the inability to provide a source of electricity without resorting to major works, they proposed an alternative, favorably received by the communication department of the Fire and Rescue Service: the use of battery-powered projectors. With the advantage of illuminating the statue when necessary, while offering the possibility to illuminate any other event in other spaces, it is quite simply 4 Starway AeroKolor battery-powered projectors that have been acquired for blue-white-red custom-made lighting.

    The Aerokolor, in addition to offering all the advantages of a battery-powered projector with high autonomy, delivers a great amount of power perfectly suited to the enhancement of a monument or a building. And if the use of lithium batteries may have awakened the sensitivity of our customers, the clarity of the information provided by Starway on the proper use of its batteries has helped to keep everyone in confidence”, Sébastien Michel, sales manager and partner at Concept Son.

  • The show goes on

    Without artists! Without technicians! Without scenes! Nothing is possible... The ED&N scene, a well-know performance hall in Sausheim, hosted at the end of the year an unprecedented project in the region: "& 100Ciel". While it is no longer possible to come and applaud the artists on stage, everything is possible by streaming, hosting 100 artists on a dream set inspired by prestigious television variety shows.

    With a technical management by TSE and lighting design by Loïc Marafini, the stage is illuminated under a beautiful collection of Starway projectors: 24 Callisto projectors set the scene for animations developed by 14 Servo BWS 20R, 16 Servo BWS10R and 24 Servo Color 4K.

    Callisto is indeed the essential projector of the moment. With the development of our streaming services, it is the ideal companion for the TV sets that we offer our customers. Whether for shows, music videos or institutional, it is always very appreciated by the directors and lighting designers”, Frédéric WALDT, design manager at TSE.

  • A shining Christmas

    This year, the north of France is not lacking in the tradition of celebrating Christmas in the most beautiful magic of illuminations. The main cities dress their squares, theaters, monuments, hospitals and, for the most important of them, their belfries with light, as if to sublimate this long-awaited moment of pleasure and serenity.

    A loyal provider of the city of Arras for its illuminations, One Events Live, has been widely requested by other cities in the region. A revival of activity which required the deployment of many Starway projectors. For the city of Arras, 140 FullKolor HD, 14 FloodLite HD, 12 WindKolor, 14 Ariane 1430FC and 8 CityKolor 5410HD were deployed for the illuminations of the belfry and the "Place des Héros", the theater, the church St-Jean-Baptiste and the hospital center. In Saint-Omer, 40 FullKolor HD, 14 Floodlite HD, 10 EarthKolor and 8 CityKolor enhance the "Moulin à Café theater", the "Place Victor Hugo" and the arches of the pedestrian streets. The belfry of the city of Comines also shines under the light of 14 EarthKolor, 13 BoxKolor UHD and 16 FullKolor HD. As for Béthune, the facade of the town hall, the "Grance Place" and the St Vaast church become magical thanks to 108 FullKolor HD.

    Our experience with the illuminations of the city of Arras spread widely to neighboring towns and we immediately invested accordingly to meet all demands. The very high reliability, quality and diversity of Starway projectors have reinforced their use across all services. This generated an intense level of activity for our structure, which was largely supported by the commercial and technical departments of Freevox. We are proud to have been able in our own way to give an optimistic impetus to the arrival of the new year”, the technical team of One Events Live.

  • Ready for the festivities

    With the "Salle Polyvalente des Tilleuls", the Town Hall of Montsoult (95) has a very beautiful multipurpose hall. It offers a 10-meter opening stage in a real theater, ideal for hosting all activities of municipal life, ceremonies and cultural performances.

    Its technical evolution has just been carried out by Rayflection, a way of continuing the action of its late manager Jeremy Power who had considered improving its lighting. It results in the additional installation of 6 automatic Starway Dino projectors.

    It was under the guidance of lighting designer Arthur Oudin that the choice was made to install Dino. Its exceptional weight / power / quality / price ratio makes it the perfect automatic for this type of installation”, Pascal Maltese, director of Rayflection.

  • Yellow for the islands!

    Identified by its yellow color, La Première represents the television and radio network owned by France Télevisions which broadcasts in overseas territories. Among the nine television channels that make it up, two of them recently inaugurated their new sets following the move to new studios, Martinique la 1ère and Mayotte la 1ère.

    For these sets dedicated to news and magazines, Eurolight System, technical lighting service provider for France Télévisions, has created a new design with a beautiful combination of Starway projectors, including 40 Titan 1230HDL, 12 Servo Color 4K and 10 LiveKolor HD projectors for Martinique la 1ère and 34 Titan 1230HDL, 8 Servo Color 4K and 20 LiveKolor HD projectors for Mayotte la 1ère.

    The enhancement of television sets requires beautiful colors and a wide range of effects. With Starway projectors, we achieve the required precision perfectly. TThe Titans guarantee powerful illumination that can be easily focused using diffusers and they produce a homogeneous range ideal for coloring cycloramas, while LiveKolor and Servo Color express themselves above all on the dynamics of magazines”, Frederic Francey, director of Eurolight System.

    This summer in Bandol (83), it was enough to stroll in the heart of the city to discover illuminated alleys and flamboyant facades evoking its history through the personalities who crossed its path... At the rendezvous of this exceptional route, a lighting of the Town Hall, then a succession of videos and projections of images and imaginations, capable of transporting us into the history of the city.

For this, TSE, sound and light service provider for the event, deployed, according to a light design signed by Loïc Marafini, 14 Callisto LED bars, mainly used for dynamic lighting of openings, and 12 WideKolor HD from Starway.

    The Starway Callisto projectors recommended here turned out to be perfect for this very nice enhancement.

Satisfied with this acquisition, we will also be able to use their KlingNet compatibility to develop our animations on our future services”, Jérôme Bigeard, manager of TSE.

  • All the great voices

    It was this summer at Pradet (83) in the Caravero Park, among the rare concerts held by the municipality. And it is not without humor that Erick Baert, the new generation of imitators, allowed the public to meet more than a hundred artists during an hour and a half of show. Ranging from castrato Farinelli to AC / DC, via Celine Dion and Joe Cocker, it was a vocal fireworks display, a real performance.

  • In (un) locked mode!

    This summer at Mag Scène, the consoles were all locked. A time of reflection which led to the creation of a design unit obviously bearing the name "Desk Locked" and led by Vincent Goepp and Joshua Duplany. To introduce themselves, they make a multi-faceted clip that showcases the artist Ears Bleeder and all the know-how of this new team.

    A distinctive lighting that was able to draw on the entire Mag Scène park which gives pride of place to Starway projectors. In the end, about 20 Servo Beam 5R for the beams across the entire width of the stage, 6 Vega widely used in effects mode behind the artist, 3 StormLIte HD used as strobe and as a color changer under the floor grids and 2 DynaKolor behind each guitarist.

    We closed the screens, we thought about it, and we turned on again. We offer our lighting designs for any type of project and we like to use spotlights that give free rein to our creativity. This is the case with Starway. The Vega is totally atypical. We love its hyper graphics capabilities and ultra power for use with or without smoke, and even in broad daylight. The die-forging of the StormLite remains unique to create effects that stand out from the simple strobe and the 5R still generates perfect beams, even after many years of service”, Vincent Goepp and Joshua Duplany, lighting designers for Mag Scène.

  • Obviously Tubesques

    What are the common points between the buffet of a student party, a graduation ceremony of a large university, the reception, bar and entrance hall of the Opera of Lyon for a company anniversary, and the International Rose Day at the "Château des Broyers"?
    Tubes of course... bright tubes around BoxKolors.

This is evidenced by their attachment to Starway's BoxKolor, which they invariably equip with her luminous tubes of variable height. A way to define for the public, in addition to a controlled lighting, a landmark and a course thanks to a common decoration.
     
    "Small, practical and of course autonomous, the BoxKolor has also the merit of recharging very quickly in its flight case.

  • Passionate generations

    Every year in Villefranche-sur-Saône (69), it is the festival of the conscripts. This tradition, which dates back to the universal conscription of 1798, brought this year the young men of the Class 9 into a humorous parade towards the City Hall, organized during the famous Friday night torchlight retreat.

  • Boreal lights

    With "You and the Night", the lighting designer David Udovtsch revisits for the Festival of Lights in Lyon the natural phenomenon of the northern lights. A contemplative installation shows the fountain of the Jacobins on a sky stung with a myriad of stars. At the feet of the sirens, a simmering and imperceptible coloring takes shape, transforming the fountain into a lighthouse before materializing the aurora borealis by irradiating the building with subtle shades of green, blue and mauve...

    The technical service for this installation was provided by Adequa'Son, which supplied the products in accordance with the specifications. Eight groups of Starway projectors totaling 12 ToneKolor HD, 12 ArchiKolor 150FC and 12 ParKolor 120HD have been installed on a hoop attached to the periphery of the outdoor pool.

    "The Starway projectors gave me complete satisfaction. The overall lighting of the fountain was managed by the large beams of Archikolor and ToneKolor, whose high level of illumination allowed to perfectly color the top of the fountain which rose to 12 m from the ground. Driven by a mapping software in addition to a light console, the Parkolor HD zoom allowed to animate extremely precise areas with a tight zoom, while zooming in wide for waiting times between tables. And all this in a more than humid environment for a week, without any problem thanks to the IP certification of the selected projectors ", David Udovtsch, lighting designer.

  • Night at the Zoo

    Located in Romanèche-Thorins in France, the Touroparc Zoo allows visitors to approach as never before more than 700 animals representing 140 species, originating from all the continents and coming from a great diversity of terrestrial biotopes and which bloom in a natural and green setting of 12 hectares.
     
    The management of the animal park and attractions asked GL events Audiovisual and its Sales & Integration department for spot lighting of certain parts of the park. GL events Audiovisual conducted night tests at the end of July 2018, and Starway's WindKolor was selected for its ability to meet the specifications. 36 projectors were delivered to Touroparc in the middle of August, the first "night mission" having taken place on August 31st.
     
    "The goal was to allow small groups of spectators to watch the wildlife of the park at dusk. It was impossible to draw power supplies for this installation which should also be able to evolve with the seasons in order to vary the light scenes presented to the public. The idea of ​​using battery-powered products was quickly imposed, as well as the constraint of having products able to withstand the elements and to blend in with the vegetation in all discretion. In addition, the easy access menu of the WindKolor also allows novice users to quickly set up light scenes without the help of a console", Stephan Perriand, Head of Sales / Integration at GL events Audiovisual.

  • Under the Magnum Sun

    What's more natural than a sunset on the Seine! But when it comes to mastering it is a different story. And when the Parisian agency UBI-BENE sells it to MARTINI for 8 days ... it is Magnum who finds the solution.
    The goal was to create a large light source, round and uniform, which could be graduated and able to change of color. After performing several tests with his client, Magnum realized that to be dazzling, it had to be 15 times brighter than a full-day screen. The only product that met all these issues was the Starway DataKolor.
    "We first made a small model of 16 DataKolor which gave us full satisfaction. We then embarked on the big adventure, assembling more than 177 Datakolor to make a sun of 8m in diameter. The two problems encountered were to design a mechanical assembly and find a solution to make these projectors waterproof, which was not easy (we even cut some DataKolor). In the end, everyone was fully satisfied, under the Magnum Sun ... ", Jérôme Chupin, Magnum's Managing Director.

  • Reborn in LED

    The Phoenix group gave on September 29 its only and unique concert in France at the AccorHotels Arena in Paris. A highly anticipated live by the French electronic music and pop rock band, awarded with a Grammy Award for Best Independent Album.
    As a tour provider, S Group strives to technically perfect an innovative scenography designed by Pierre Claude, light designer and console operator for the entire international tour, which, following the advice of Léon van Empel, CEO of S Group, has discovered and adopted the new Star Star StrongLite HD stroboscopes.
     
    "At the first briefing with the artists about the light design, I first realized that the project was going to be complicated. The idea was to play on a huge video floor of 11m x 9m reflected by a mirror of 11m x 10m itself inclined at 45 °. The light had to be discreet and out of the question to hang on or use the festival bridges hidden by this gigantic backdrop.
     
    My choice for stroboscopes was then turned to a classic model.
    At the time I was not convinced by what was done in LED; some did not have enough power, dimmer curves and colors were approximate, there was no random, they were too heavy and unsightly ... With a group of this size, we play as much in clubs only in the biggest festivals of the world like headliner: the power must follow.
     
    During the tour in Asia (without our kit), I was forced to use LED strobes, which allowed me to question my choice. I then asked my friend Leon van Empel what he had to offer me. He recommended me some Stronglite HD from Starway, a brand I did not know much about, but everything seemed to be on the technical sheet.
     
    I give full confidence to the choices and proposals of S Group, we then did the test on the next date (a few days before Paris). I was immediately charmed. The machines are discreet with incredible power, the dimmer and the colors are fine, and my technicians are delighted. We have in all 5 Stronglite HD against the light of the mirror, 5 against the light, and 8 in the side.
     
    Perfect for an Arena! I leave so confident for the big festivals", Pierre Claude, light designer.
