Philips\’ entertainment lighting brands Vari-Lite and
Strand Lighting, along with the Showline product range, have enjoyed three
jam-packed and successful days at a buzzing Mediatech Africa show in
Johannesburg.
Joining valued partner and leading lighting supplier for
South Africa DWR Distribution on stand, Philips exhibited the award-winning new
Vari-Lite VL4000 Series, industry-standard Strand Lighting NEO and 500ML
Consoles and the Showline SL NITRO 510 and 510C LED strobes.
The DWR team reported a high level of interest in the
Philips range, with Nick Britz, product manager for the stand, saying:
\”The SL NITRO 510 strobe is extremely popular in
South Africa, thanks to its versatility – it acts as both a flood and strobe
light and can be pixel mapped. We saw a lot of people coming up to discuss its
wide range of features and wanting to see a demo.\”
Martin Palmer, regional sales manager for Philips,
supported the DWR team on stand to offer visitors in-depth product advice.
\”It was a privilege to have Martin Palmer on stand
with us,\” says Sherryn Riley of DWR. \”He was very friendly and made
clients feel comfortable yet at the same time had the necessary product
knowledge.\”
\”Mediatech Africa is a fantastic platform for
Philips to connect with our valued partners and customers in southern
Africa,\” says Palmer. \”It is definitely on the up and up, the
atmosphere felt very fresh and exciting and we were delighted to get some great
feedback on our products. I\’d like to thank DWR for all their support in making
it such a successful show.\”
Taking place at The Dome at Northgate, Mediatech Africa
is the largest media and entertainment technology trade show for southern
Africa. The show brings together professionals for three days of networking,
knowledge sharing and a chance to get to grips with the latest equipment
worldwide.
