The Christie Boxer 4K30 is a 30,000 lumen, high-resolution, 3DLP projector
designed for high-impact live events. It is one of the brightest projectors
on the market and perfectly suited for large-scale video mapping which also
requires the precision of 4K. It contains expert image manipulation with
built-in warp and blend functionality. It also has a 1500 hour illumination
life, giving users complete confidence in terms of durability.
The projectors are now available for rental and WL has four in stock, making
it the first company to hold an entire fleet.
Andy Hook, WL's Technical Solutions Director, comments: "We have a strong
relationship with Christie and have already invested in their latest range
of projectors, including the D-Series, H-Series and Q-Series. As such, our
trust in the brand and their ability to deliver amazing products is one of
the reasons we ordered the 4K30 before it was even released. This has
resulted in us being one of the first companies in the UK to stock this
revolutionary product".
Among its many features, the Boxer's single-phase power reduces set-up costs
and complexity whilst still delivering exceptional HD image quality using
Christie's enhanced HD upscaling. It is also extremely compact and weighs a
mere 68kgs.
Andy states: "We are really excited to be able to bring this incredible
product to our clients. We appreciate that companies which hire equipment
from us have wide-ranging requirements and often work in a variety of quite
challenging environments. With the Boxer being so lightweight, low-powered
and packed with useful yet easy-to-navigate features, we know it will always
deliver the best projection whilst making the entire process as stress-free
as possible".
The Boxer is the latest addition to WL's ever-growing projection stock. With
the imminent expansion of the Boxer family along with the introduction of a
new laser-phosphor range, WL is excited to continue investing in the very
latest technology and strengthening its relationship with Christie.
Gavin Chatfield, UK & Nordics Market Development Manager at Christie,
comments: "We are really proud of the Boxer 4K30 in terms of its size,
features and the incredible projection it can achieve. The feedback has been
phenomenal and it's great that the product has already received accolades
for its performance. We are delighted that WL has invested so significantly
and that the products will now be readily available to their entire breadth
of clients".
The Boxer has already been used by WL and its trade customers on a number of
high-profile events including the recent Historic Royal Palaces Showcase
held at the Tower of London. As guests entered the Tower, WL projected a
series of animated sequences, created by Graham Clarkin of GeeFX, onto the
building's exterior which completely transformed this historic landmark.
Andy comments: "With Christie, all of their equipment is reliable, compact
and, most importantly, projects to an incredibly high standard. We want to
ensure that all of our customers have the opportunity to work with the very
latest in projection technology and will continue to invest in order to make
this possible".
