Opera Holland Park Projections
Helium + pixels = Entertainment!
Opera Holland Park, the ‘feel-good factor’ annual opera festival in West London, required an entertainment solution for one of their major corporate sponsors Winton Capital Management. The sponsorship package included a reception for 300 guests, but the request came for some entertainment with a ‘wow’ factor.
In the dark of night we created new content for the heliosphere projections – a 7m diameter balloon – on the Holland Park cricket pitch, the cricket field being overlooked by Opera Holland Park’s audience exit.
For 2 weeks previous to the staging of the stunt, Knifedge had a creative team of 4 produce 3D projection trickery.
