A Jands Vista I3 console, running the next generation Vista v2 software, was
specified by renowned installation artist and lighting designer Fred Pommerehn
to control the lighting for a specially commissioned work on display as part of
the World Wildlife Fund’s “Deutschland wird Wald Meister 2011” (Year of the
Forest) campaign in Berlin, Germany.
WWF’s Year of the Forest
The temporary installation – which was in
place on the steps of the famous Konzerthaus
in Berlin’s Gendarmenmarkt square – featured
26 fabulous tree sculptures measuring up
to six metres in height, each carefully
crafted by Fred using recycled cardboard
materials, and diligently lit for the
darkness hours.
Fred’s inventive set design, sculptural
and installation work embraces many
disciplines and frequently involves lighting
as an integral element. For the WWF
event, Lichtblick Bühnentechnik supplied
all the technical production – and also
constructed the trees, project managed by
Frederik Wehlmann.
Fred Pommerehn has worked with the
Berlin based lighting rental company,
Lichtblick Bühnentechnik GmbH for
several years and always specifies Jands
Vista to control any lighting on his
projects. He explains that there are many
reasons for this, including the flexibility of
the system and the speed at which he can
achieve his aims, as he is often working
on projects where the timeframe is a
significant factor.
It was the first event on which Lichtblick
Bühnentechnik had used the I3 running
on the Vista v2 software.
“Using the Jands Vista allowed us to work
very fast. Especially running with Vista v2.
It really takes the complexity out of the
process, and allows you to concentrate on
getting creative visual results fast.”
