Ensemble drives the Young Enterprise Awards

Yesterday I went to the North Yorkshire Young Enterprise Awards in Harrogate. Just like 12 months ago I was in charge of lights, sounds, and videos, and controlled everything from a single Xbox controller.

This time, not only was there sound and light welcoming each team to the stage, but a 90-second introduction video with synchronised lighting.

There were some really professional presentations with some great products, and one of the companies even dressed in a chicken costume to attract attention!

Another great day, can't wait for next year.

Controlling lights and sounds at the Young Enterprise Awards

Yesterday I used the Ensemble at the North Yorkshire Young Enterprise awards in Harrogate. I was controlling three sets of lights and lots of sounds, all from a single Xbox controller. As each team was called to give their presentation, the stage was lit up with flashing lights and a different piece of music was played.


Each of the presentations went well, the confidence of the students was particularly impressive, they were much less nervous than I would have been! 


My personal highlight was the spoof episode of The Apprentice. Lord Sugar grilled the 'candidates' about their project before deciding that they were all hired! I have to admit it didn't follow the show completely though, there was no squabbling in the boardroom!
