A spectacular show in Hanoi marks Vietnam's 1000 years
Vietnam - The celebration of Vietnam's 1000th anniversary was held in Hanoi at the My Dình Stadium on 10 October.

With over 1000 players and dancers, it was a spectacular event. Guests included Hillary Clinton, USA Secretary of State, President Sarkozy, the Russian Premier Putin and many other international heads of state.

In Hanoi, visual designer Paolo Buroni and his team coordinated by Sabine Linder worked together on the artistic and choreographic content of the show which narrated the history and the beauty of this country through the four elements of nature using a large scale technical deployment of hundreds of image and lighting effects projectors.

The stadium and its surrounds were frescoed with images projected by 60 Stark Live and Revolution projectors that were chosen after a comparison with an international array of technologies and projection systems.
