To name just one example.Totally agree. The filmography of the beginning of the audience being welcomed to *his* stage was an instant hook. Combined with the performance and the array of pyros and it’s not difficult to see why they won.
The best we could do was polystyrene trumpets.
Totally. And if you look at France, you can see it's not a money problem. One of their most effective sections was the backwards and forwards, shaky camera effect in time with the lighting which was just raw and filmic in a way which perfectly complimented the song and cost nothing but creativity.
The UK were just lazy. Even with what they had, I don't understand why they slowly lowered the trumpets halfway through the song so they ended up just sitting lifelessly on the stage. Surely you start with them lowered down, then lift them as the music builds whilst also lighting them more dynamically so they become a bigger spectacle as the performance goes on?
