Once again, we've focused on the VJs line up to provide get visual talent from Europe, and we'll have the 4 Vjs crew Studio VJ [France] headlining the night and doing visuals all night long in the Main Room !


Over the last few years, VJs, videomakers and video graphic designers VJ JeSs, Miss~CHéMAR, VJ Jules and Aalto have developed a very personal approach to live visuals.
Producing their own material, they mix motion graphics and video to create a real instant and dynamic visual composition experience, in sync with the music. The 4 VJ crew will feed you with live visuals all night long.

All 4 French Studio Vj members will also show their work and try to give people answers about live video practice.

Thanks for everybody who turned up to both VJschool and Cuisine night.
The StudioVJ crew has done an AMAZING job !!!

The program was quite intense, but Aalto, Dulce, Jess and Miss chémar managed to do everything in a brilliant way:

Thursday:
8PM - 10PM: VJschool, they did a conference and a live demo.
They first presented their common work, how they mix their styles and have a proper unity when they do things live, with 4 laptops, midi controllers and V4 mixer.
Then we discovered their individual work and explored how each of them produces his visuals with his own style and software (flash, after effects, illustrator, Vegas..). The fact that they also uses different softwares was a very interesting thing as well (the brilliant Modul8, Resolume, electronica.. and arkaos for myself)

Unfortunately Miss chémar was a bit late because of passeport problems (that was their first gig all together in the UK) but she joined us later in the evening..

We filmed all the VJschool session and hopefully we'll post the report in the next few weeks when the editing will be done.

Friday: the Cuisine night !
10PM - 4AM: Live visuals in the main room for Cuisine. We had a quite nice install (3 projectors in the main room, and a nice transparent net screen in front of them.. The DJ lineup was really good as well, and this cocktail made this night bangin' ! (the octopussy's girls playin' breaks, DJ netik, the DMC world champion blew up everybody's mind.. , and Hip-J's deep techno ended up the night).

There were a few power cuts who really pissed us off (they never ever had that much VJs, projectors in the club), but finally it wasn't that bad, as the VJs managed to work as if everything was fine.Du coup soirée mémorable, on a presque doublé la capacité légale du club qui n'a jamais été aussi rempli..


Here again we filmed everything, and I will post a report here as soon as the editing will be done..

Thanks again to all the vjs who made it, it was really nice to meet you guys !
For the next one, we should have more guestlists for the vjs if you PM me.

Here are a few pictures from the weekend:
