E/T/C was rewarded for its technical contribution to The Image Mill, the spectacular show created and produced by Robert Lepage and Ex Machina for Quebec City's 400th anniversary. The ground-breaking show saw the installation of 27 Christie 20K video projectors, which were programmed and controlled by E/T/C's multimedia platform, Onlyview. A monumental image 657m long was beamed onto the Bunge grain silos running along the banks of the Louise Basin in the Port of Quebec. The 40-minute show ran nightly throughout the summer.
E/T/C's sales and marketing director, Patrice Bouqueniaux, accepted the award, surrounded by E/T/C staff members, many of whom had been involved in The Image Mill project. "E/T/C is sincerely honoured to receive this Award. It is a real tribute to everyone's hard work and diligence, and it keeps our goal alive to continually push the creative boundaries of technology," affirmed Bouqueniaux.
