GoVision Helps Trump Inauguration Go Big on Video
GoVision, a full-service LED screen provider based in Argyle, Texas, played a key part of the inauguration of Donald Trump as the 45th president of the United States on Jan. 20. Two 19-x-33-foot G16 mobile LED screens flanked Trump on the steps of U.S. Capitol as he took the oath of office.
Nine additional mobile and modular screens were set up in strategic locations around the Capitol to enable the crowd to enjoy the ceremony.
