OLO Builders closed their conference with a Celebration of Excellence, and we handled the DJ, lighting and video for the night.
Playing to a room aged 20s to 60s
This is the part of a corporate awards night that most often goes wrong. The crowd spanned late twenties to early sixties, which rules out both of the easy answers — an all-current top 40 set loses half the room, and an all-throwback set loses the other half. We built the program around classic hits from the 70s, 80s and 90s with contemporary top 40 mixed through it, so there was something recognisable for everyone from the moment guests arrived.
Lighting matched to the brand
We designed the lighting to the OLO Builders brand colours rather than defaulting to a generic wash, and ran video screens through the awards so the recipients and their categories were readable from the back of the room. An awards presentation lives or dies on whether the audience can see who won.
The feedback on the night was good enough that OLO booked us again, which is the only review of an event that really counts. This was the first event of what has become an ongoing partnership.
