What an amazing night!
After an early 06:00 start from Bristol, the crew arrived safely with all the trucks at the Portsmouth Guildhall and spent the whole of Friday rigging the stage, lighting and sound for the ACE Awards 2013. We were pleased that the set went up easily including the excellent LED curtains. These were going to be used as part of the light show and we were all looking forward to seeing them in action.
We had a leisurely 10:00 start on Saturday and started with rehearsals and sound checks for all the acts performing on the night. After a complete run through we were all in agreement that all the video content made by our studio department, the LED screens and the lights were fabulous! The venue even asked if we could leave the LED screens behind, sorry boys, not this time!
The lighting and sound engineers spent the whole day programing lights and making sure each act sounded great, although we did get in trouble with the catering manager as the bass had vibrated a lot of the cutlery onto the floor – so sorry for that!
Roxanne Emery and her band were a pleasure to work with, and not only is she a lovely person, but she has such a beautiful voice, we were all very impressed!
But it was Beardyman who stole the show on the night, taking the audience by surprise and interrupting the host for the evening. He made a dramatic entrance through the tables overshadowing any spoken word with a thunderous helicopter noise he expertly mimicked using only his voice. He then proceeded to amaze and entertain the 450 guests getting them up and out of their seats in pure amazement at his unique ability. The huge array of musical genres he can produce linguistically is almost unbelievable, and something you might have to witness to believe, but never the less, everyone loved him, including all the crew who joined the masses in filming him on their mobile phones (despite the extensive recording equipment already in the room).
Once he had the room up and dancing, MadHen took over the evening’s entertainment and everyone danced the night away to their excellent repertoire of covers from all eras.
All in all, a hugely successful night, and congratulations to all of this year’s Award winners! What a way to celebrate.
The only question now is, what next year?
The team spent a long few days filming in Portsmouth with the Staff at Affinion International and now we can show all the hard work that went into making the music video, check the video out here:

Thanks to everyone involved in the making of the video, including Portsmouth City Council, Gunwharf Quays, Spinnaker Tower, all the staff at Affinion International, Matthew & Me for letting us use their song and the crew for pulling it off!
We’re getting ready for the Bond Pearce event on Thursday and have finished the lectern, it’s looking fab! Good work all involved. Very British…
Last night we were proud to attend the drinks reception celebrating nasen’s 21st birthday which was held in the House of Commons. Nasen is the leading organisation in the UK for special needs and we have been working closely with them for 3 years now. We organise their annual event nasen Live which is the premier special educational needs exhibition in the north of England and also features an acclaimed seminar programme.
This year’s event will see an excellent array of music acts take to the stage to help celebrate Affinion’s ACE Awards 2013. As part of this year’s award’s we have made two music videos involving Affinion staff, premieres on the night! The countdown is on, it’s going to be an excellent night.
Sounds Commercial are pleased to be providing full technical support and sponsorship to the Bristol Business Mayor Hustings event at Bristol City football ground this evening. There will be a live broadcast at 18.30 on BBC1 Points West which will cover this exciting mayoral debate.
We’ve just finished editing a time lapse video of the crew in full swing rigging a set at Ashton Gate Stadium. Paul Gascoigne was the guest speaker at the sell out night and a huge amount of money was raised for Macmillan Cancer Charity. Click on the link below for the video!
