Acoustic & Lighting System (A&L) Group’s Vietnam team recently hosted an industry meet & greet with Vietnam’s creatives at Revons Studio in District 4, Ho Chi Minh City. The event, titled “Spatial Visualisation”, invited Vietnam’s top show designers, production directors, choreographers and technical directors to touch, experience and experiment using the BlackTrax real-time tracking & automation solution.

Acoustic & Lighting System (A&L) Group is a value-added event technology distribution network, with a regional coverage across six countries in South East Asia, including Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and certified BlackTrax reseller for the region.

For this event the Group’s Vietnam branch chose to showcase the company’s solution package of BlackTrax integrated with multiple lighting, video and immersive products. Attendees were given an inside hands-on experience on the BlackTrax spatial integration with disguise media servers, automated stage lighting and even a unique implementation featuring ARRI SkypanelX fixtures.

BlackTrax is a leading vision-based tracking system from the Toronto, Canada-based CAST Group, and is used through-out the world by top artistes & events, famous touring acts such as Cirque du Soleil, and world renown media technologists such as Bild Studios, XiteLabs and many more.

With a diverse range of attendees from various industries, the event provided the perfect platform for A&L to connect with Vietnam’s top creatives, who for the first time were able to experiment directly to push the BlackTrax system to its limits, while having A&L’s dedicated BlackTrax tech team in person to engage in deep technical dialogue about methods to incorporate BlackTrax into their creative work. The A&L team also welcomed creatives from Hanoi, who flew in from Vietnam’s capital to join in and attend this unique event I Ho Chi Minh City.

“BlackTrax has been on the minds of many Vietnamese designers, creatives and technical teams for many years now, but we received extremely positive feedback from the attendees that this was the first time they were able to see the solution working correctly in its full form and function. The open-format, open-sharing and hands-on format really put the equipment in the creatives’ hands and the ideas that came out from this event already has our new rental partner’s upcoming calendar filling up with requests,” shared Bernard Alexander Raj, the BlackTrax lead tech from A&L for this event.

“Our attendees had a great time: running, jumping, twirling and being really interactive with the BlackTrax system we set up. We had some very influential show producers visit us for this event, and hearing them say to us “I will use this in my next show” gave us confidence that our know-how and solution delivery was strong enough to convince them to invest their creativity into this solution,” added Tram Bui, of A&L Vietnam’s Sales Team.
