The annual Affinion ACE Awards was a huge success, yet again raising the bar on the previous year. A two day rig and rehearsal schedule culminated in an industrial Orwellian bespoke set and 40ft widescreen that reflected the evening’s performance design.
X-Factor finalist and star of stage and screen Lucie Jones kicked off the show followed by a bespoke full HD opening VT with full motion graphics from the green screen shoot earlier in the year, the audience’s reaction was palpable. ZooNation Dance Company, a ground breaking hip hop theatre company best known for their award winning west end show ‘Into the Hoods’ and their recent award nominated hit ‘Some Like It Hip Hop’, did a breathtaking performance followed by a bespoke dance battle VT of Affinion dance crews shot earlier in the year that caused a standing ovation. The evening awards with individual bespoke stings and twin HD live camera mix was concluded with a final full 15 minute ZooNation performance and the headline party band Tokyo.
To say the gauntlet for the 2013 awards has been laid down is a huge understatement!
