If you’ve ever wanted to learn more about how visual and auditory elements can be used in live shows to engage audiences, this is a talk you can’t afford to miss! Stephen Thurgood-Perry, expert at Luminous Show Technology, will give insights into the fascinating world of sensory stimulation in the entertainment industry. He will demonstrate how the deliberate design of elements such as video, laser and sound can help to evoke deep emotional responses from audiences, creating unique show experiences that will not soon be forgotten.
Triggering Emotions in the Audience with innovative Special Effects
Drawing on his many years of experience, he will provide insights into how special effects can be used to create sensations beyond the five basic senses, such as temperature, heat, movement and wind pressure. By appealing deeply to emotions, particularly immersive moments can be created that captivate the audience. In order for this to succeed smoothly, it is essential to include the design of special effects (SFX) in the planning process of performances at an early stage. The presentation will therefore show how the early integration of SFX suppliers into the creative process can utilize innovative technologies, advanced manufacturing techniques and modern design principles to produce an exceptional show experience.
The presentation will provide an in-depth understanding of the complexity and potential of sensory stimulation in the entertainment industry. It is essential to think beyond traditional approaches and continuously push the boundaries of what is possible with innovative ideas and technologies. Listeners can expect to gain inspiring insights and valuable knowledge that will be of interest to entertainment industry professionals and enthusiasts alike. Thurgood-Perry’s talk promises to be a fascinating journey through the world of the senses, enriched with real-life examples and in-depth expertise.
