Construction News Awards

Overview

Celebrating its 26th year, the Construction News Awards brought together more than 1200 of the UK’s leading clients and contractors for a magnificent evening of celebration and networking at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London, hosted by actress, television presenter and comedian, Sally Phillips.

We were tasked with creating a unique and vibrant set design which incorporated the use of technical production to complement and enhance the overall event identity, as well as providing project management, full technical production, show calling, film, and video.

Solution

A central LED wall provided the focal point for the set, with relay screens either side to capture live camera feeds and display event information throughout.

Our creative studio developed the core identity, and produced all on-screen content, including opening animated sting with 3D animated countdown and awards slide content, through to the sponsor loop animations and post-awards winner loop.

Lighting design incorporated further LED technology, all choreographed throughout to compliment the on-screen content and music, including the opening 3D countdown which also featured LED Tron dancers.

Guests were entertained post-awards with a variety of live entertainment including Rockaoke.

Outcome

Our client said, “Just wanted to say thank you for last night and for everything you all did for CN Awards. As usual, working with you has been a complete dream from start to finish. We refreshed the branding for this year, and we knew it would look good – but I’m not sure even the most optimistic in the team would have predicted it would look that good.”
