A national star, 32 tour dates, 5 video wall screens.
In 2018 and 2019 we were employed by Open White Design to provide film production and animated video design for Jane McDonald’s tour, culminating in her Christmas shows in Birmingham and Leeds Arena to over 5000 people. The films would be displayed on video walls behind the stage and synchronised to live music, and the incredible live light show that Open White created. As an added complication, the video walls were non standard resolution, and needed to act like individual canvasses, and also one giant one for different parts of her show.
Before the Christmas shows, we also provided film production services to the tour, by recording some special messages from Jane to her fans, as well as an ambitious green screen sequence to start the show which involved a silhouette of Jane walking up the steps behind the stage to take her place at the start of the show. We filmed this on location at Leeds Grand Theatre in their giant stairwell with a moving green screen and our Red Helium cameras.
