The stage featured a unique Dragon O installation that blended seamlessly with the production’s aesthetic and acoustic demands. The system was composed of three Dragon O arrays, forming a U-shape above the stage: two lateral sections of 8 modules each and a central cluster of 8 modules. This arrangement was suspended above the center of the stage in the form of a mobile chandelier, adding depth and versatility to the performance space.
In April 2024, acclaimed R&B artist Bryson Tiller captivated audiences during a three-night residency at London’s OVO Arena Wembley. To elevate the sensory and visual aspects of his performances, Tiller partnered with LedPulse and Verum Tempus. Together, they designed and installed a cutting-edge Dragon O lighting system, delivering a groundbreaking experience that fused music, light, and movement into a dynamic narrative.
The modular nature of the Dragon O system allowed for its integration with motors, enabling it to transform dynamically during the show. This mobility allowed the lighting configuration to shift in real time, adapting to the various acts and emotions within Tiller’s setlist. The system’s capability to turn “invisible” when powered off further enhanced the interplay between the Dragon O visuals and the LED screen backdrop, creating a seamless visual transition that captivated the audience.
Verum Tempus meticulously handled the installation, ensuring the structure preserved the acoustic clarity and delicate balance of the live performances. The lightweight and transparent design of the Dragon O modules minimized visual and auditory interference, enhancing the show’s immersive qualities.
Audioreactive Visuals and Dynamic Stage Design
A standout feature of the production was the audioreactive system developed by Verum Tempus. This technology synchronized the Dragon O lighting effects with Tiller’s live audio, creating responsive visuals that mirrored the rhythm, tone, and emotion of each song.
Additionally, the Dragon O chandelier’s mobility allowed for dynamic stage transformations, with the modules reconfiguring during different parts of the show. This added a kinetic element to the performance, immersing the audience further into the narrative of Tiller’s music.
