With its rich history and vibrant culture, Asbury Park, New Jersey, has always been a magnet for creativity and innovation. This year, the Color & Light Festival added an exciting new dimension to this iconic beachfront destination, captivating both locals and visitors with its mesmerizing displays. Central to this unforgettable event was the collaboration between Shawn Emamjomeh, founder of PolyOne and the Color & Light Festival, and the creative minds behind the LUMA Projection Arts Festival, Joshua Bernard and Tice Lerner. Their partnership brought together a talented roster of artists, each contributing their creative visions and artistry.
The Power of Projection
This festival featured a diverse lineup of innovative artists, including emerging talents and established creators, showcasing their unique styles through light and multimedia projections. The technical prowess of A3 Visual, combined with Panasonic's cutting-edge projection technology, brought the festival to life with stunning visuals cascading off the historic Paramount Theater, a landmark that stands proudly against the backdrop of the Jersey Shore. The vibrant patterns and designs projected across the building illustrated Asbury Park’s heritage and artistic spirit.
Leveraging seventeen PT-RQ35 3-Chip DLP™ projectors, Panasonic's projection technology allowed for high-resolution imagery and dynamic content that reacted to the rhythm of the festival. The event also faced its challenges, as inclement weather loomed on the first night. However, Panasonic's reliable projection technology proved its mettle, functioning seamlessly amid the fog and light rain. This resilience ensured that the magic of the festival continued to shine brightly.
“Panasonic projectors were chosen for the Color & Light Festival for one simple reason, they are the best.” says Bernard, “When you got rain, and you got situations to deal with, you need a technology to just work, and the technology just works beautifully. Panasonic makes that happen.”
An Unforgettable Experience
The theater's exterior captured the attention of all who passed by. Families, friends, and art enthusiasts gathered to experience the vibrant displays, fostering connections and conversations. This communal aspect, enhanced by the stunning visuals, contributed to a collective experience that celebrated creativity and innovation. By delivering stunning visual clarity and vibrant colors, Panasonic’s advanced projection technology allowed for the seamless integration of art and innovation. As a result, events like the Color & Light Festival not only highlight artistic creativity but also cultivate a sense of community, bringing people together to celebrate shared experiences through the power of projection.
