UK - The current tour by All Time Low is indicative of the frenetic pace this band sustains. Barely had they left rehearsals than the run of five gigs through the UK had ended and they’re off across the Atlantic for some North American dates that takes them through to the end of June. Once again LD Jeff Maker has designed a high impact show, the back of stage being dominated by a fractured, post-industrial looking LED screen supplied by Video Design.
“I’ve worked with Video Design on and off for the last couple of years”, says production manager Tom Clifford-Loynes. “This short UK tour - all back to backs - has been typical of the service they provide. Great equipment and first-class crew; we’ve had absolutely no issues with any of the hardware. The crew have been wonderful as usual; don’t forget the screen is quite a big piece of real-estate yet here we are two hours into loading in on the fourth show, it’s 11:30am and the backline is just being set up before we all break for lunch.”
The screen is used for a mix of content and IMAG, Video Design also providing the three camera PPU. “The content is produced by Oliver Hutchinson,” continues Clifford-Loynes. “He has a done a really good job. Between content, the excellent camera images, and the physical impact of the screen shape, they really bring the wow factor to the show. The audience absolutely love it. A good package neatly executed.”
