EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2015
The ceremonial announcement of the prestigious EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2015 Czech Republic took place at the already traditional Žofín Palace in Prague at the beginning of March.
This year's winner of the prestigious EY Entrepreneur of Year 2015 award was Zdeněk Pelc, chairman and owner of GZ Media, Inc., which is the current world leader in the production of vinyl records. The prize was awarded in the beautiful space of the Žofín palace by the 1st Deputy Prime Minister for Economy and Minister of Finance, Andrej Babiš. The EY Entrepreneur of the Year is the world's most prestigious competition of entrepreneurs, which pays tribute to exceptional individuals. This was the sixteenth time it has been held in the Czech Republic. The competition aims to show the public exemplary individuals in the field of business, who can be role models for young aspiring entrepreneurs.
Ensuring comprehensive technological services, including effective interior video-mapping
AV MEDIA ensured the complete technological part of the evening, providing decorative scenes with rear projection and two front projections, handling different video contributions on 3 presentation surfaces, ensuring effects and stage lighting, live camera broadcasting and interpreting technology due to foreign guests being in attendance.
Compared to last year, when video-mapping only made up the decorative backdrop of the evening, in cooperation with the client EY, we prepared a fundamental transformation in this part this year. As the opening feature of the evening, a sound system video-mapping was implemented, which was projected on one of the side walls of the Great Hall of Žofín Palace. Upon its conclusion, the projection switched to the projection wall on the main stage, including surround sound effects. This was how the gala started. The area of the side wall of the Great Hall was used for video-mapping during the gala dinner and in the actual finale of the evening - the announcement of the main prize, when the space inside the hall and stage were lit up by a spectacular fireworks display.
Another innovation was the production and use of a “live” graphic background on the main projection throughout the whole evening.
We cannot forget the timeless design of the lectern, which will also be used for other editions of this international competition.
