"James De Musical" is a television show where each episode features a famous individual as a guest. Through engaging conversations, five significant moments from their life are transformed into musical scenes.
The program is recorded in a real theater.
To be able to change scenery quickly, much of the scenery is digital.
There is a large LED screen covering the entire back wall and advance side panels.

For the second year in a row, New Solid made all the video backgrounds for the various acts.
5 acts x 8 episodes makes 40 backgrounds.

The backgrounds are built using real-time compositing in the Disguise media server. The layers are partially controlled by the lighting table so that we can flexibly coordinate light and video.
Our goal is to merge the video with the real scenery elements on stage, so that you no longer see what is video and what is real.
The program won the prestigious Golden Rose of Montreaux in 2021.
