Allen Signs selects Applelec’s illuminated built up letters for PARKLIFE festival.
Manchester’s biggest music festival blends music from dance, electronic, pop, rock, grime, hip hop and more. This two-day event attracts around 70,000 visitors per day and has developed a reputation for its diverse line up, attracting some of the biggest music stars from across the globe.
Allen Signs were appointed to supply the logo for the PARKLIFE stage and tasked the Applelec Signage team to bring their concept to life, who then employed Applelec Supply to recommend the best LEDs for the job.
Requirements for the project included large face illuminated letters that would be mounted, at a height, to the curved frame at the top of the stage. Alongside this, the illumination within the letters needed to sync to the music, creating a vibrant feature of their logo.
The Applelec Supply team selected SloanLED Spectrum RGBW LED modules for the letters face illumination. Offering powerful and efficient lighting in a wide range of colours and the brightest whites not often possible with a basic RGB module, these modules offered the most powerful RGBW lighting across the spectrum.
Ideal for channel letters 102-200mm deep (4-8") and with excellent thermal management for greater safety and reliability, SloanLED Spectrum RGBW LEDs was the perfect solution for this project. Illumination was enhanced even further by a white semi-gloss coating to the inside of each letter.
Finally, to meet the required project specification, LTECH DMX controllers were then connected to the LED modules and programmed so that the LEDs full spectrum of colours changed to the beat of the music. This created a striking and animated logo, bringing the brand logo to life whilst perfectly matching the atmosphere of this dynamic event.
