August 2008
K13.biz was instrumental in brokering a deal for an 86sqm LED screen and Outside Broadcast facilities for the Trafalgar Square Festival which ran for the three week duration of the Beijing Olympics. We also created the graphics and animated stings and Kevin McGuire was nominated screen content manager for the event working through Greenwich and Docklands Festivals.
With the screen in operation seven days a week from 08.00h until 22.00h on a show day, juggling live satellite feed input and a combination of red button services (to assist with the seven hour time difference), sponsorship messages, short public information films intercut with live street theatre performances filmed by a four camera Outside Broadcast Unit utilising the screen as a virtual backdrop and screen relay of the performances.
