Multimedia Shows
"Zheng He is coming" multimedia show in Romon U-Park, Ningbo, China

A major attraction of the park are its multimedia shows, including "The Source of Light" about the adventures of two panda bears “Romon” and “Romie”, as well as “Zheng He is coming” about Zheng He, a Chinese admiral and diplomat of the 15th century.

Both shows include video projection mapping, laser beams and laser graphic effects, digital water screen, fire bursts, lights, fog, music and sound effects. Shows are technically based on 10 Barco video projectors projecting onto the 30x30 meter pyramid, the 20 meter wide pyramid stage screen and the back wall. Two video servers, 12 full colour laser projectors, 48 moving lights, 20 flame bursts, and the 18 meter digital water screen are all centrally controlled and synchronized.

Both multimedia shows became a core attraction of the Romon U-Park. Emotion Media Factory was responsible for all aspects of project planning, as well as system operation and maintenance.[6] Music was created by Selcuk Torun.[7]

In October 2015 “Zheng He is coming” multimedia show by Emotion Media Factory becomes a finalist of the Brass Rings Awards by IAAPA.[8] The equivalent of the Oscars for the Amusement Park Industry, the award is to be given to multimedia attractions with a budget of $1 million or more.
