Supporting live event specialists Simply Better, ATC delivered a comprehensive AV solution for a high-impact Provident event held in the Great Hall at Birmingham University.
Main Room – The Great Hall
The event’s primary display was an 8m x 4.5m ground-supported 3.9mm LED wall, positioned on the Great Hall stage.
To complement this, six portrait-format projection screens were creatively placed in alternating spaces between the venue’s columns. Panasonic PT-DZ21K projectors, positioned on the balconies, delivered sharp, vibrant content. All video processing and control was handled via a Christie Spyder X20.

- Shure handheld radio mics
- Shure beltpacks with DPA headset mics
- Audio Technica hard-wired microphones
