Skynight and the 4 major audiovisual professions: sound - light - video - infrastructures
e perfect sound, in an auditorium, in a festival, on an exhibition stand at the Salon de la Haute Horlogerie, in a stadium for Eurofoot, in a museum, in a conference room set up for the occasion...
A er the de nition of the sound coverage objectives, our specialists study the implementation of the broadcast sources and the required power for the speakers, taking into account the geometry and the size of the location. e so ware calculates and models the sound reproduction, the socalled acoustic prediction, which makes it possible to guarantee a solution adapted to each environment.

We represent the best brands and test a large number of products, in simple or advanced con gurations, before o ering them to our customers.
Give instant shine and depth ... thanks to the light
Equipped with a preview studio, we can provide a realistic rendering before the implementation of a major project. We design and simulate the complete lighting of a show or other event, then program and modify each parameter according to the con gurations we encounter during a tour in di erent places, for example.
At each event, multiple solutions: traditional projectors, slave models, LED-type lighting, special e ects or automatic tracking systems associated with cameras are all machines that allow us to meet the most lightened and complex needs.
As for the sound, our light park is important and allows us to respond to the most varied con gurations for a perfect e ciency.

Keystone of an installation, the technical grill can be suspended or selfsupporting. As for the stage, it is o en the central element for the realization of a show or a conference. e structure installation requires rigor and training to meet the security imperatives on which we do not compromise.
