Tidelines at The Hydro
To celebrate Tidelines 10th anniversary, the band played the biggest show of their career {so far} at the Hydro. We like the band having worked with them for a number of years and were more than happy to support them with the video side of what turned out to be a somewhat vast production. We provided a upstage Led screen of 7 separate 4m strips and Portrait imag screens with full camera package. As there were 2 separate stages we had 9 cameras allowing shots of both the main and b stage .
Cutting cameras to screens taller than they are wide is a totally different approach as there's no such thing as a 2 shot or usable wide but in the context of the overall design it worked well and it certainly looked the part and the camera team did a great job under Erin's direction. The curveball of the band performing part of the set on a second stage with their backs to the cameras was covered nicely by a couple of well placed Ptzs.
It was ambitious and delivered under reasonable time pressure as other parts ran a bit late , but very happy with the results so a big thanks to the camera and led team of Erin, Elldon, Frazer, Andy, Iain Allan, Craig and Lee .
