USA - LumenRadio's CRMX wireless DMX/RDM technology was used with great success in the production of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise's fourth instalment, the On Stranger Tides movie - currently the eighth highest-grossing release of all time worldwide.
The movie was produced and released in conventional 2D, IMAX, Disney Digital 3-D, and IMAX 3D and included sophisticated computer generated 2D/3D visual effects, as well as many extensive and complicated location shots. That level of technical ambition, a very compressed production schedule straddling the Atlantic, and the pressure of a multi-billion dollar franchise would not leave anything to chance.
Josh Thatcher was responsible for the deployment and operation of LumenRadio's CRMX units as part of a gigantic lighting rig on the California set.
"Not only did CRMX Nova by far provide the best range and reliability I have ever seen from a wireless DMX/RDM system, but CRMX SuperNova and the extensive RDM support offered me real time monitoring of signal strength and critical data. This offers tremendous benefits and instills strong confidence in the system," said Thatcher.
