EVO in Rome for Jeunesse Expo 2018

The production of ‘ Jeunesse Expo 2018’ – a convention of high technological profile and spectacularity – has been entrusted to MMS, one of the most important Italian rental companies, specialized in the design and set up of large exhibitions, conferences, tours and TV shows.

76 EVO moving heads were installed at the Palalottomatica:

  • 24 units arranged vertically on the layers, in 8 lines of 3 projectors;
  • 12 on the ground along the stage;
  • 24 located on the third ring of the large indoor arena;
  • 16 units installed on the truss above the LED wall.

I used the EVOs mainly as tracers” – explained Sergio Cattaneo, Lighting Designer of the event – “both to create a decidedly squared geometry as opposed to the very fluid scenography, and to fill the huge open space of the Palalottomatica.
I used the 8-sided dyna prism a lot to break the light; the pre-post zoom control of the prism made it possible to create a completely different design in a moment.
