CitizenCon Stage Desk
CITIZENCON 2019 - MANCHESTER UK
BRIEF:
Manufacture and install the main centrepiece stage presentation desk for the clients annual convention. The item should be a replica of a sleek high tech asset from within their computer game. It should be refined and understated to complement the presentation without being distracting in person and on screen.
KEY FEATURES:
Flexibility for a variety of panel styles (from two playthrough players to up to four panel members), the desk required an in-built horizontal support structure across its 5m length, with no legs to give unrestricted seating options.
To maintain the clean uncluttered lines of the desk from the audience perspective whilst integrating an enormous amount of hardware to facilitate both panel presentations and a live playthrough.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
A 5m long, modular replica “CentreMass” asset from within the clients game. The internal structure of the desk was redesigned to allow for integration of production, sound and IT equipment for the live event whilst maintaining the in-game aesthetic from the audience perspective. To ensure visibility of speakers during the presentation, two angled predator x27 monitors were recessed beneath the acrylic top, which also allowed glare-free gaming under stage lighting and unobscured views of players during the playthrough.
