An Olympic team effort
2000 Olympic Games • Sydney, Australia
For two of the venues — the SuperDome (above) and the Aquatic Centre — the existing lighting
had to be completely rewired in order to meet broadcast requirements. As well as providing lighting
for competition, Musco assisted in lighting for the gymnastics gala, an exhibition event featuring
dramatic special effects.
The Musco team used its ingenuity to help create special effects which added to the drama of the
broadcast. At the diving competition, a metal plate with a stenciled cutout was used to project
the Olympic rings at the bottom of the pool.
