Montreal multimedia guru tackles first kids show: the Doodlebops

From google.com (The Canadian Press):

doodlebops Montreal multimedia maestro Daniel Angers has created some dazzling technical effects over his 30-year career, projecting giant videos and images onto the ice at NHL games and onto the facades of buildings.

But when asked to mount a similar presentation for a trio of pink, orange and blue rockers and their preschooler fans, he was nearly stumped.

"To a certain extent, it’s more difficult because you’re not a two-year-old," said Angers, who has created a giant three-screen panoramic video for "The Doodlebops: Together Forever Tour" tour that kicks off Wednesday in Peterborough, Ont.

"In my case, I’m a 51-year-old, so it’s trying to put yourself in the shoes of a two year old and trying to blow them away and trying to show them stuff that are going to keep them amazed."

Angers, owner of multimedia presentation company Dangers, was asked by Koba Entertainment last fall to add his technical prowess to the Doodlebops tour that will hit 52 cities across the country, with colourful rock-star siblings Deedee, Rooney and Moe Doodle from the hit Canadian kids’ TV show.
