VILLA TH A L I A Company: DEP Location: Rotterdam, The Netherlands The Villa Thalia in Rotterdam, The Netherlands can accommodate up to 300 people for a sensational dinner show and afterwards it slowly transforms into a nightclub. ‘Flying’ bottles of champagne are delivered to the tables through the air, while 360° projection provides the illusion of being right in the middle of the show. Design and installation company, DEP provided the lighting, audio, video equipment as well as electrical design and engineering for Villa Thalia. The unique 360° multimedia projection was realised with the help of Beam Brothers. The team used 15 Christie DWU951-Q WUXGA projectors and one Christie Titan Super Quad 1080p projectors working alongside three 7th Sense Delta Infinity Quad L5400G media servers and one 7th Sense Delta Infinity II L5400G media server. A Black Magic HyperDeck Studio Pro 2 disk recorder also helped bring the immersive environment to life. A total of 100 custom-made V-shape digi LED profiles are also at home at Villa
