This year, the representation of the Battle for the conquest of Qart-Hadast in the Carthaginians and Romans Festival of Cartagena will be more spectacular than ever.
The traditional battle in which more than a thousand festive costumes with their troops and legions, will be transformed into a spectacle never seen before in Spain thanks to the fusion of different artistic disciplines such as Video Mapping or dramatic lighting.
The Sea Wall will become a display of one hundred meters wide, in which different images are projected on 2 and 3 dimensions that support high-impact and will equip each of the tide of battle.
Spectators can enjoy the realistic effects like watching the impact of the shells crack the wall, destroying it, or how the fire burned with catapults.
To do this, they will install 4 of 15,000 lumens projectors, which will make the wall in a giant tapestry full of light and color.
Another innovation is the use of dramatic lighting.
50 robotic heads, LED lighting, conventional stage lighting, follow spots and smoke machines dramatize the battle, focusing public attention on the moments and spaces where the action takes place, allowing others to remain unseen festive at times input and output stage.
In addition, the representation of the battle will have 60,000 watts of sound with a coverage of 150 meters, which allow the public to not miss a single detail of the original soundtrack created especially for the show, and the narrative off of a very special voice, it will be the voice actor Claudio Rodriguez, known as the voice of characters like Albus Dumbledore (Richard Harris) of the Harry Potter and regular doubler and Burt Lancaster Charlton Heston, in charge of giving life an ancient Roman legionary, who recount battle this exciting recalling his experiences in combat.
The principal actors who embody the generals Publius Cornelius Scipio, Cayo Lelio and Magon, have a wireless microphone system, so that their dialogues and speeches are heard by all attendees from the stands.
To carry out all these developments, the Roman Senate has had the collaboration of specialists in Entertainment Multimedia Xtrañas Productions, pioneered the technique of Video Mapping in Spain and creators of shows like the one conducted in Valladolid to celebrate the rehabilitation of the Church St. Paul, the show for the first World Congress of Catholic Universities (under the WYD), or projections that were presented in 2010 in one of the milestones of the Camino de Santiago, to celebrate the year of St. James.
