Role: disguise Programmer/ Operator

Eleven days in December 2022 based in Lusail Stadium working as a disguise Programmer / Operator for Creative Technology Middle East. My role was to Programme and finally Operate disguise software for the Closing Ceremony show as well as the Awards show. The Closing Ceremony consisted of a large number of singers and dancers choreographed to fit the music and projection. The Awards Ceremony was for awards such as Golden Boot, Glove and Ball, as well as the trophy lift moment.

The technical setup required for these shows consisted of two VX2 directors and four VX4 actors (including understudies) outputting to 36 projectors as well as stage LED screens and broadcast.

The incredible visual content was made and delivered by Multimedia Production Studio - Sila Svetta and the Production company was Balich Wonder Studio.

Once of the wildest games of football in the history of the sport, Messi’s Argentina beat France on penalties to become World Cup winners for the third time.
