Benedict Mason’s 2014 BBC Proms commission ‘MELD’ held audiences spellbound in its use of the unique space of the Royal Albert Hall.
The concert film is based on an idea by Andreas Schimanski and Benedict Mason and was commissioned by The Space to bring the work to a wider audience. It uses multiple cameras positioned around the hall and roving cameras, some worn by the choir and orchestra. The end result provides the audience with a unique experience, giving a vivid sense of the movements and interactions of the musicians and singers with the space.
