Northvale Bank AGM & gala set

A plenary and gala set designed for the back row and the livestream at once, built to load in and strike inside one ballroom window.

A stage set is the backdrop to a moment a room will remember, so Northvale Bank’s AGM and gala set had to read powerfully from the back row and look intentional on the livestream. We designed scenic forms that framed the speaker and the 12-metre LED rather than fighting them, with proportions that worked whether the camera was wide on the room or tight on a face.

The hard constraint was time — the ballroom at Resorts World Sentosa was ours for a matter of hours. So we pre-built and dry-fitted the entire set on our own floor, which turned the on-site call into assembly rather than problem-solving, and sequenced the load-in around the AV, lighting and rigging teams so nobody waited on anybody.

The set framed the LED cleanly, carried the bank’s identity without shouting, and struck clean by 1am so the venue could be handed back on schedule. It was precisely the sort of calm, on-cue night that makes an organising committee look like they spent more than they did.
