Opening ceremony of the Francophone Games

The city of Beirut hosted the 6th Francophone Games, uniting 2,000 athletes from 42 countries. The splendid Opening Ceremony at the Camille Chamoun Stadium was created and directed by Daniel Charpentier, who called upon ETC to deploy an extensive image projection system. Video and PIGI projectors created a décor of sumptuous images on the stadium field, in the seating tiers and on stage.
