Dave Cooper of Standby explained: "We are the first production company to use the NanoLumens display since it was brought to the UK in January. It is a 112" display with all the picture quality and brightness of LED, but its lightweight and easy to install properties means it could be hung above the arena with very little infrastructure. Our clients were able to show full motion footage on this incredible large display with the minimum of fuss."
The Skoda Bike Arena was hosted by The Clan, a group of Scots wowing the crowds with cycle stunt shows. The team, who represent the most talented Scottish riders from trials, BMX and mountain biking showcased their skills, doing regular displays throughout the show, with bikes and riders flying through the air, performing near-impossible feats of balance and nerve.
Standby also created a diverse range of feature areas throughout this show and sister shows the Outdoors Show and London Boat Show 2011. The crew was kept busy with around half a dozen small seminar stages and larger features such as the British Bouldering Championships and the unique Skymasters suspended climbing wall.
The Outdoors Show also required a substantial "Heroes Theatre" in the Platinum Suite at ExCeL, playing host to some legendary speakers such as Sir Rannolph Fiennes and Sir Robin Knox-Johnston. Meanwhile, the London Boat Show hosted the spectacular Watersports Arena, a combination of live-action shows and have-a-go watersports taster sessions for visitors. Standby provided a complete technical package including full water-quality management and installation of the nearly 2 million litre capacity pool.
Nanolumens is a display technology innovator that has designed and manufactured a flexible digital LED display that can be curved in all four directions, flexed around walls and wrapped around columns with a 48" bend radius. The screen is lightweight and thin, which means it can be hung simply from ceilings, with very little infrastructure. Incredibly, they can be used in locations where large, heavy and fragile flat panelled displays are impractical to install or use.
