XL Video Supplies Mumford & Sons Tour

UK - The latest UK arena leg of the successful Mumford & Sons Tour of Two Halves world tour featured 2,547 of XL Video's latest FX-200 product, together with three Pixled F11 LED screens, HD cameras / PPU and crew.

The versatile FX-200s were specified by lighting and visuals designer Ed Warren from Next Level Lights.

The small opaque plastic balls encase LED clusters and can be fitted together and configured to suit any design.

The band have been touring for the last three years with various different arrangements of tungsten lightsources over and around the stage as an integral part of the lighting rig.

Earlier in this tour, Warren introduced LED festoon lighting, going from the stage and reaching right out into the audience ... and he wanted to take this up another level and add another dynamic and adaptable lightsource to the mix - enter the FX-200.

He had seen the product in action at various festivals over the summer and thought it ideal for the next evolution of his design. "I wanted something far more than just a standard light bulb or lightsource, and something that could produce high-impact low-res effects like the stars at night or burning embers."

Apart from that, he needed to be able to get a good tungsten to match and complement the rest of the lighting aesthetics.

The FX-200s were mounted on small different length steels and hung on two independent trusses. Their layout and where they were positioned onstage was critical to the rest of the lighting rig, and when in position they brought two distinctive additional curved visual layers to the stage.
