Xerox-Technology
Xerox wanted to incorporate their new branding and marketing videos into their already existing 10,000 sq ft purple Formica exhibit booth which lacked a presentation environment or multi-media component.

Construction, lighting, video, and on-site expenses had to fit into an extremely tight budget.
Our solution was to request a 500 sq. ft. corner of the booth to create an open-air multi-media theater. We needed to solve the long, medium and near 'attract' design criteria that are part of our solution set for any exhibit. We knew we needed to go in a different visual and kinetic direction in order to separate our theater from the Sony, theater ten feet away.

Since we knew COMDEX would be awash in a sea of multi-colored laminates, we utilized materials that are more theatrical. We created a very large, modern abstract sculpture that incorporated a giant internally lit version of the new Xerox 'X' logo. This 'X' could be seen from a great distance away because of the scale and mass employed. Part of the sculpture became a large array of various scaled monitors hung at different levels to attract middle distance and nearby attendees. The presentation stage was designed to be a large computer driven technical control center with an operator and a host. Monitors of the appropriate size and height backed them for the seated audience viewers, along with the requisite audio system for both the host and the videos.

Out of over 2,500 exhibitors, our theater was chosen to be the sole exhibit displayed in the center of a one-page article in the next issue of US News and World Report.
