We’re big Halloween and scare attraction fans, so we exhibited at Europe’s biggest industry trade show, ScareCON. We had fun in our retro video store, supplying all the latest VHS horror releases and showing off our backstage kit in our exclusive ‘ADULTS ONLY’ section!
WOOKEY HOLE 4D
In the heart of Somerset lies Wookey Hole, a magical place of caves, legends, and adventure for the young and young at heart. Wookey asked us to upgrade their lamped projectors to brighter, maintenance free laser models. We worked directly with Panasonic to create a projection system that works with existing passive 3D systems.
