Scope of Work
ETI retrofitted all four breweries with new system racks, 3d projection televisions, lighting systems, and high-definition plasma screens

Challenges/Solutions
Alcatraz Brewing Company needed to update and expand existing audio visual entertainment systems without interrupting business. ETI's challenge was to plan an installation sequence over the course of several nights that would culminate on the final night with total integration of the new visual systems. This meant installing monitors, speakers and lighting around existing systems, which had to remain operational during the transition. ETI crews worked through the night to complete each phase. After a final night of troubleshooting and testing, Alcatraz Brewing Company opened its doors with a state-of-the art audio visual interactive system that appeared to have been installed overnight.
