Visuals and Video Themes

Introduction
Our VectisVibe Premier, Platinum and Junior 4 Kids packages include video display screens and projectors (as long as the venue supports them).

Included with the packages are an impressive range of computer-controlled video systems...

Shadowdancers
Brilliant fun for the kids (of all ages!) as they try to dance along with the shadow figures! Also helps to add ambience to the room and subliminally attract your guests to the dancefloor! We have over 4 hours of unique footage - enough to run for a whole evening!

   
VectisVibe Technical Info
Abstract Graphics
Moving in time to the beat, a whole catalogue of stunning moving graphics to add a real "Wow!" factor to your event. Works best with projection, but looks good on the screens too!



Video Camera
We have an audience-facing video camera which we connect into the system to show your guests dancing and fooling around up on the big screen! We can add various digital effects to make this another "Wow!" feature.

Event Graphics
We also have available a catalogue of optional Event Graphics which we can run instead of, or in conjunction with, our standard features. For a small surcharge you can choose from Casino, Spy, New Year, Christmas (Traditional), Christmas (Modern), Hollywood and Halloween.
Coming soon we also have Valentines, 70's, Salsa, St Patrick's Day and Adult Shadowdancers.

Vegas Casino

A flyover of a realistic Roulette table 3D model - the camera also dips down into the roulette wheel and flies around the channel. Hundreds of 20 dollar bills fly up across the screen, fluttering and rotating as they do. A hand of cards is fanned out with a swoosh of sparkles!
The camera half-orbits an arrangement of flashing Neon signs. Hundreds of sparkling gold Dollar symbols appear and float up across the screen. A flyover of a Craps table, with a pair of dice being rolled onto the table half way through.
Neon outlines of the playing card suits appear and disappear, rotating in 3D and floating upwards A giant gold die rotates in 3D in front of a sumptuous purple backdrop with white sparkles. Hundreds of playing cards fly up and tumble across the screen.
The camera 'explores' a hand of playing cards which have been created in '2.5D' - a semi-3D effect. A fruit machine spins - it settles three times, the third time being a Jackpot, and the word JACKPOT flashes onscreen. A kaleidoscopic effect using the suit symbols - this was inspired by the opening titles of Casino Royale, so would make a good connection if this DVD is used for a Bond/Casino Royale themed event.
Cards 'explode' out of the centre of the screen. The background image is a closeup of a playing card back. This was also inspired by the opening sequence of Casino Royale. A close-up of two dice being rolled in 3D. Hundreds of dice fall from the top of the screen and rotate in 3D .
