LAS VEGAS—Elation has announced that its PULSE PANEL FX lights were used in the live broadcast of the NHL Draft on June 28 and 29 from Las Vegas Sphere —the first ever live TV broadcast from that extraordinary space.
When the NHL decided to elevate the draft experience by hosting it at the Sphere, they sought a top-tier designer with extensive large broadcast TV and touring experience and tapped Tom Kenny for the job. Already familiar with the venue from his early consulting work on the Sphere project, Kenny also has long-time associations with Willie Williams and the entire U2 crew (including Allen Branton and Felix Peralta), who opened the Sphere last fall, not to mention his own experienced crew, all of whom provided the designer with valuable venue insight.
