Punch Drunk debuted the wireless HD BallCam at CHBP 2014, when we returned for a 2nd year of live iMag with a huge spread of musicians and DJs.

Overview

  • 3 days of live music in the middle of Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood, 10s of thousands of festival-goers and fans, and a huge LED wall upstage.
  • Our iMag show for Block Party actually extends the main stage visibility by several blocks, increasing the usable capacity of the main stage area several times over.
  • This time out we also deployed our BallCam, which sends wireless HD video from a huge inflatable ball to the screen as it rolls across the crowd.
  • Motion graphics expert Peter Rand created detailed interstitial reels and custom 3D animations that played on the big screen during set change and to warm up the crowd.
  • The music artist lineup included A$AP Rocky, Spoon, Chromeo, Matt and Kim, The War on Drugs, ODESZA, and many more.
