Selwyn Snowball '24

Project type

Winter Ball

Date

6th December 2024

Location

Selwyn College

The Snowball is currently Cambridge's only college ball that takes place during Michaelmas term, and almost entirely indoors. Loading in the main stage is a logistical puzzle, with one access lift to the main hall, and limited space through the kitchen service corridors. The one way system through the ball leaves the main stage (Dining Hall) crammed onto the platform upon which the high table usually sits, presenting a unique challenge for our production crew.

The 6x4m main stage featured our signature Danley soundsystem alongside 4 state-of-the-art LED columns displaying themed artwork and unique visuals designed live by our team. Our setup has been carefully designed such that it provides unmatched clarity within reverberant college halls and minimises both the space and rigging required. Despite the logistical challenges, packdown of the main stage was virtually complete within 2 hours.

Proceding through to the main stage, you arrived at the Silent Disco, the walls of which were lined with Astera AX1 pixel-mappable tubes. The wirelessly controlled AX1 was controlled by the DJs via an iPad, allowing them to adjust the lighting to the music across the night.

Downstairs, an acoustic stage was situated in the bar. We provided a cost-effective solution here, as the aim was to provide predominantly ambient music for guests as they grabbed a drink, chatted and warmed up from the harsh weather that Storm Darragh presented.

Underneath the main stage, we transformed a sterile conferencing space into a unique "below ground" 2nd stage, with our compact, French-designed NEXO audio system allowing the committee the space to offer a Casino, various entertainment acts and live bands within the same space.
