However, there are limitations with the standard rigging capacity of the roof. To accommodate the larger production requirements that couldn\u2019t be hung from the SAM-550, we built custom scaffold wings and an upstage windwall. The scaffold wings were 20\u2019 wide, 40\u2019 tall, and 38\u2019 deep and supported full line arrays. An upstage wind wall held a video screen and additional lighting elements beyond what could be hung from the SAM-550 roof. All elements combined, the mobile stage gave the appearance of a much larger system and provided enough strength to support all of the artist\u2019s production.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding4.jpg\" alt=\"elliegoulding4\" width=\"1008\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding4.jpg 1008w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding4-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding4-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3899\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding3.jpg\" alt=\"elliegoulding3\" width=\"1008\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding3.jpg 1008w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding3-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/elliegoulding3-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mountain Productions provided the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/2016\/02\/09\/photos-mountain-productions-clearspan-front-of-house\/\" target=\"_blank\">Clearspan Front of House<\/a> structure with a 22\u2019 tall <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/staging\/support\/delay.php\" target=\"_blank\">spot tower<\/a> behind it.
