Hat-trick for Service Graphics at the Bafta 2010 awards
Service Graphics Wandsworth has yet again excelled at supplying outstanding graphics, project management and installation facilities for the 2010 British Academy of Film and Television awards ceremony.
Now in the third year of supply, Service Graphics have supported WD&P Events, the events management company responsible for dressing the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, on the evening of Sunday 21st February.
Although many films stars and celebrities attend the event it has a limited life expectancy, sadly, of one night only which means one thing, critical deadlines! So participating teams were summoned to pre-event meetings where times and guidelines were discussed and at the appointed hour the Service Graphics team deployed to carry out the graphics installation.
Working alongside other suppliers, installers, riggers and electricians can sometimes flag the odd minor unforeseen hiccup, however the SG team were able to eliminate any that arose and swiftly completed the job on time and with the satisfaction of the event director.
The event progressed in typical red carpet euphoria with the paparazzi cramming for the best photo op spot while the fans were kept at bay by the branded barrier signs.
The extent of supply included lamp post barriers, press backdrops, large vinyl building banners, barrier signage, brolly box, window graphics and vinyl mesh banners.
Service Graphics Wandsworth looks forward to supplying the next Bafta ceremony in 2011!
