Our LED wall in the Dark Bay Studio, created from 1470 state-of-the- art LED panels from ROE Visual, does just that.” – Philipp Klausing, one of Dark Bay’s managing directors “The Diamond LED screen gave high scores on image performance, viewing angles and colour representation. Furthermore, the in-depth knowledge of the technical team at ROE Visual was indispensable during this project.” – Frank Förster, managing director for TFN “After a comprehensive study with industry experts, we ended up choosing ROE Visual as our provider – for their reliability and overall technical quality.” – Mikko Kodisoja, Fireframe founder and CEO

“Using Black Pearl BP2 creates an outstanding LED volume, with a perfect on-camera performance. Even in the exacting circumstances of black-and- white filming, we were able to get the most out of the LED.” – Fuse Technical Group on shooting the Academy Award-winning movie Mank “Pixomondo decided to go with ROE Visual because its BP2 panels are the only battle-tested LED panels; they deliver a flawless canvas that requires little attention once up and running.” – Mahmoud Rahnama, head of studio, Pixomondo, Toronto
