German Youth Literature Prize at the Frankfurt Book Fair
Challenge
The challenge was to ensure that the presentation of the 2024 German Youth Literature Prize at the Frankfurt Book Fair ran smoothly from a technical perspective. At an event with over 1,600 guests, it was essential to precisely coordinate the show lighting, projections, streaming, interpreting technology, and stage construction to ensure that everything ran smoothly.
Solution
G+B realized the event with 200 meters of trussing, 150 moving lights, six 35K projectors for soft-edge projections, a central media server, three camera systems for streaming and recording, and interpreting technology. The positive feedback from the organizers confirmed the successful implementation and reliable cooperation.
