Lenovo's own sales conference at the Sheraton Imperial: a general session on four 10K projectors and four screens, six breakout rooms, and eight cameras recording to the client's own drives. A dozen of us flew in for the week.

Revolution Live is Lenovo’s own sales conference, and in 2019 it took over the Sheraton Imperial. The general session ran four 10K projectors onto four fast-fold screens with two more standing spare, a 32-channel desk, ten Shure wireless combos, eight powered EV boxes and four subs, and a switcher feeding the confidence monitors at the riser. Over it were eight lekos and eight movers on box truss with twenty-five LED pars washing the room, which is the color on the ceiling above.

The rest of the week ran off the same rig: six breakout rooms with a projector, screen, mixer and wireless mic each, reset over every lunch hour, and eight cameras recording to drives Lenovo took home. About a dozen of us flew in for the Sunday noon load and out after Thursday’s regional meetings.
