This is David Guetta's New Year's Eve stream, broadcast last night. I didn't watch it live because I was Zooming with friends or sitting in front of our own fire. Having a chance to see it tonight is very nice. Guetta is good at what he does and he's got a budget here.
Usually I put on these sets and let them stream while I'm working on something else but this one I recommend watching. It's a great example of how the broadcast DJ-without-live-audience form has evolved over the past year. The setting - the Louvre courtyard - becomes a massive lit stage. There are lights laid out to make patterns as well as casting on the sides of the building.
Camera work includes front-on visuals of Guetta, close-ups of his handiwork on the boards, and lots of drone aerial shots to give you a perspective on the lighting show itself. Plus there are video overlays you couldn't do live. It's really a new art form and it makes my old lighting geek tech heart go pit-a-pat to see.
