5. In-depth Analysis of Project Overview
5.1 Venue Environment & Visual Challenges
Covering an area of about 3,000 square meters, Beijing National Indoor Stadium features sufficient floor height and high load-bearing capacity of overhead steel grid structures. Nevertheless, large-scale venues bring prominent difficulties: the audience seating area stretches over 50 meters in depth, and conventional lighting solutions tend to present flat pale visual effects lacking layered sense from distant viewing angles. In addition, Hu Xia’s concert focuses on nostalgic and youthful atmosphere, requiring soft and moderate ambient lighting with warm emotional vibes without dazzling glare. Featuring 360° double-sided light emission, lifting meteor lights cast diffused soft light across high-altitude venue spaces, capable of spreading mist-like gentle glow or condensing into sharp concentrated beams as needed. Such balanced soft and tough light characteristics perfectly match the romantic yet restrained emotional tone themed on Those Years.
5.2 Product Selection Principle: Why Choose Lifting Meteor Lights
The meteor-themed visual concept fits naturally with youth memories and the passage of time. Classic songs performed by Hu Xia including Those Years and Deskmate are filled with strong nostalgic emotions and lyrical sentiments of regret and cherishment. DLB lifting meteor lights can visually simulate natural scenes such as falling meteors, drifting drizzles and elapsing time. By adjusting the flowing speed and color transition of light spots, they instantly create a strong sense of fleeting youthful time. Supported by 108 independently controllable LED beads, the lights realize dynamic running light effects inside single tubes and form magnificent combined visual rhythms via synchronous linkage of 133 sets of equipment. Furthermore, the 9-meter long lifting stroke and 1.2m/s high-speed response lay solid physical foundation for stunning visual impacts of high-altitude descending light effects.
5.3 Three-tier Layout Strategy
To make full use of vertical venue space, 133 sets of lifting meteor lights are divided into three matrix layers to build complete visual depth ranging from distant starry views to close immersive scenes:
- Top Layer (10-15 meters): Around 50 sets, mainly for creating grand panoramic starfall scenes and wide-range light waterfall effects. With full utilization of long lifting strokes, these lights drop rapidly from 15 meters to 5 meters high at chorus climaxes to deliver powerful visual shocks.
- Middle Layer (6-9 meters): Around 50 sets, designed to simulate interleaved rain-like visual atmosphere with staggered installation heights and random independent lifting movements. This layer fills visual gaps between upper and lower spaces to ensure complete layered stage views.
- Bottom Layer (3-5 meters): Around 33 sets, installed close to the stage performance area for close-range atmosphere rendering and individual meteor light embellishments at performance highlights. When Hu Xia moves towards stage edges, bottom-layer lights operate gentle lifting movements and soft light flows to build intimate visual interaction between lights and the singer.
Targeting the warm, nostalgic and affectionate music positioning of Hu Xia’s concert, Fengyi team delivered a complete integrated software and hardware solution.
