UK - A grandMA2 light was specified by lighting programmer and operator David Horner to control moving lights and media for the 20th annual British Academy Cymru Awards (Welsh BAFTAs) held at the Millennium Centre in Cardiff. The event was hosted by Sian Williams and Jason Mohammed and celebrated the best of the nation's television, film and interactive industry in 26 programme, craft and performance categories.

The lighting and visuals package for the show was co-ordinated by gaffer Gafin Riley who is based in Wales, assisted by Bernie Davis. The lighting designer was Andrew Cottey, and programmer David Horner was asked onboard to plot and operate the moving lights and Hippo Critter media server feeding content to an upstage LED wall.

The grandMA2 light was supplied by MA Lighting UK, and Emma Ralphs, the main lighting programmer from Cardiff's St David's Hall venue which has also recently invested in a new grandMA2 light console, worked with Horner on the event. The moving lights were all Martin Professional supplied with the rest of the lighting equipment by ELP.
