Expo 98 looked at life on the island of Macau, off the southern coast of China. Within the main hall of the Macau Pavillion were several displays depicting life on the island. Each scene used a combination of audio, rear-projection and laser disc technology.
This impressive show incorporates wide-screen video projection, gauze reveals and slide projection with multi-channel sound system. DJW worked closely with Sony using their 'Soft-edge mask system' in conjunction with three CRT video projectors.
The original film was shot on 35mm film to a wide-screen format, therefore, to fill a 9-metre wide screen and maintain the image quality it was necessary to split the image into three parts and project each part from a separate projector using a soft edge mask to blend the three images together.
DJW contructed a bank of 28-inch video wall monitors, in an 8x6 configuration around the doorway through which visitors can pass. Mirrors were then placed around the bank of monitors giving a stunning quadroscopic effect.

The Macau Pavilion, with an elaborate dragon wrapped around it, was produced by The Visual Connection, designed by Met Studio and built by Carlton Beck as Display Contractors, who in turn contracted DJW to supply and install the Audio-Visual hardware.
