Beladi – A Night at the Pyramids

Lighting Designer: Matthieu Larivée, Luz Lighting Design

ALD: Valy Tremblay, Proluxon

Supplier: Procon Belgium

W-DMX™ made a concert at the Pyramids of Giza worthy of a Pharaoh. “Beladi - A Night at the

Pyramids” was the rst “made for television” concert ever recorded at this historical site. The

concert featured Quebec singing superstar Chantal Chamandy, accompanied by the Cairo Symphony

Orchestra performing for thousands of spectators, with the pyramids and the Great Sphinx providing a

spectacular backdrop.

Lighting Designer Matthieu Larivée of Luz Lighting Design and Assistant LD Valy Tremblay of Proluxon

designed a colourful array of effects on the massive structures using almost 600 xtures to achieve

the perfect look to accompany this historical event. The landscape provided the biggest challenge, the

shortest distance from console to xture was approximately 1000 meters (.6 miles) and the longest

more than 1800 meters (1.1 miles), consisting of rough desert hills and rocky terrain. The only logical

solution for DMX control of the massive equipment list was W-DMX™ by Wireless Solution.

Tremblay was thrilled with W-DMX™, citing a number of reasons it was so valuable during the project.

“I’ve worked with W-DMX™ in the past on elaborate shows such as Cirque du Soleil’s Delirium and

knew it was reliable,” he says, “Not only is it impossible to run cable when dealing with set ups of this

magnitude, but we were under extremely tight time constraints. We only had 8 days from the time

the equipment arrived until the actual concert to get almost 600 xtures up and running – and they

were scattered over the span of an entire square mile of highly protected land. Even if we had that

much cable, it would have taken weeks and made an unsightly mess.”

Tobias Rylander, lead on-site W-DMX™ technician, was equally impressed, “It’s easy to be skeptical

when you see the size of these pyramids, not to mention the other factors like the intense heat

and the amount of broadcast equipment, plus thousands of people with cell phones – we even had

camels walking around the equipment! But the W-DMX™ signal was stable the entire time without a

single interruption.”
