For a Halloween party at New York’s Buddha Bar, Caramel Production (212.691.9122, caramelnyc.com) stretched fabric over the venue’s large skylight to create a surface for a flickering fire projection.
Staging Barkley Kalpak Associates (212.947.1502, bka.net) built a futuristic command center to showcase new technologies at the World Congress on Intelligent Transportation Systems in November 2008. BKA lit the display with equipment from PRG (845.567.5700, prg.com), including overhead lights, stacked HD projectors, and LED and moving light fixtures programmed in time with video segments playing on the central screen.

For the Public Enemies premiere party in Los Angeles, Entertainment Lighting Services (818.769.9800, elslights.com) and Angel City Designs (818.997.1662, angelcitydesigns.com) used an array of old-fashioned pendant and table lamps to create a space inspired by a 1920s bank. To add color, ELS lit bamboo and other plants with green LEDs.
