3D Matrix (or a cube matrix ?) in Britains Got Talent

[davrus]

There was a guest artist in the first semifinal of BGT 2014 .... this is not about her, or the show, its about what was happening behind her.
There was a matrix of hanging LED lights. And they made very effective use of them.


I found this video - a terrible video - seems it was recorded by a camera pointing at the TV screen ... and the sound (thus the actual video) was recorded slow, so when played back it is speeded up.

I wonder what software is used to generate the 3D content?

 

[SmartAlecLights]

they look like rays pixel balls.. not a bad sequence,
but a ACL person could allways do better with that setup

 

[AAH]

It's really hard to tell but I would reckon that is a matrix of at least 20x20x50 high. That is 1 hell of a lot of pixels out there.

Looks cool but it's always nice to know that even the pros can't get their pixels to line up perfectly.

 

[AAH]

I think that they specified them as 100mm spacing but that's how Ray supplied them

 

[mborg10]

And prob not enough tension on the bottom.
I thought yeah I can do that but 20,000 balls might be a bit in freight.

Look like triklits but there are a few people making that style now so who knows. If they are triklits and they got a discount even, there is many grand in those lights back there!

Madrix can do 3D shows and some of those effects look straight from it so could be that.

I was thinking it was likely Madrix, but when you get up into commercial software who knows. Could be Phillips software or something we have never even heard of.

They may be Minleon triklits, They have been used to create a cubatron before.
