An Awesome Experience at University of Miami

To impress and persuade top high school football recruits to play for the Miami Hurricanes, the Athletics Department at the University of Miami (UM) envisioned creating a dynamic "Recruiting Rotunda" -- featuring a "Miami Hurricanes Football Recruitment Experience" -- that immerses prospective recruits in the sights, sounds, and excitement of the celebrated team and its five national championships. To bring this vision to life, UM's Athletics Department enlisted Midtown Video, which orchestrated and integrated a complex array of hardware, software, and media assets to realize an immersive multimedia extravaganza.

Starting with a dramatic 60' corridor illuminated with cycling LED lights, recruits are barraged with sound and video. They pass through a unique rear-projection fog screen at the Rotunda entrance and into the 22' diameter theatre where nine 10K Projectors paint the walls and the floors in dramatic immersive video.

Jesse Miller of Midtown Video says, "Businesses, institutions, universities -- they're all competing for positive mindshare, and the way they can set themselves apart is to create an immersive multimedia experience that's so impressive that people go away with it burned in their brain. Midtown Video is committed to focusing our expertise, ideas, and technology to create immersive AV experiences."
