Franz Ferdinand 2009




Franz Ferdinand E.L Screen 2009 

A very unusual concept and design was described to us by Franz Ferdinand LD Cormac Jackson – a projection screen in a grid format with an additional lighting element highlighting each grid section. 

After several prototypes and material choices, Specialz designed and built a lightweight hinged screen system that could be folded down and flightcased. Electroluminescent tape was applied as an outer border around each panel of the screen and triggered by a DMX control system. 

The end result? A 12m wide x 6M high 200 panel screen capable of displaying mouth watering projected images, plus a vibrant EL effect that can kick in and chase.
