Orchestral Energy, Arena Scale: Synthony at Margaret Court Arena
When Synthony took over Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena, it brought a collision of classical prestige and dancefloor euphoria. To support a production of this magnitude, WOOHAH delivered a comprehensive visual and broadcast solution designed to capture the scale of the orchestra while maintaining the high-octane energy of a premium EDM event.
To ensure every crescendo was matched by a visual punch, we deployed:
- High-Resolution Arena Backdrop: We utilised our ROE CB5 LED screens for a massive upstage wall and dedicated IMAG side screens. The CB5’s exceptional clarity and brightness provided the perfect high-contrast canvas for the show’s signature synchronised light and video show.
- Broadcast-Grade Capture: We provided a full Camera Chain System equipped with high-performance Box Lenses. This allowed our operators to capture the intricate details of the orchestral performers from the far reaches of the arena, delivering crisp, tight shots to the big screens.
- Cinematic Camera Direction: Our Camera Director and Operators managed a complex live mix, navigating the needs of a multi-piece orchestra and rotating vocalists to ensure the visual narrative remained as dynamic as the music.
- Full Recording & Archival Package: To preserve the energy of the night, we provided a complete Recording Package, capturing the multi-cam mix in high definition for the client’s future promotional and archival use.
- Precision Arena Rigging: Our team engineered a robust Rigging Solution capable of supporting the massive LED configurations required for Margaret Court Arena, ensuring safe and optimal positioning for maximum audience impact.
Congratulations to the Synthony team on a spectacular Melbourne performance. We are proud to provide the technical mastery that bridges the gap between the symphony hall and the stadium.
