Fissure Playground
FISSURE's Tier-1 tournament series for Counter-Strike 2 and Dota 2, staged in Belgrade. I ran the visual systems and show control: six LED surfaces fed from PIXERA, one cue stack driving light, sound, video and effects, and on-screen graphics built from live match data.

Five segments from the FPG CS 2025 show.

What I did
- A new screen signal chainFor FPG Dota I designed the video chain from scratch: three 60 Hz feeds out of PIXERA, processed in Barco E2 Gen 2, out to the LED surfaces.
- A one-button showEvery show step is one press for the playback operator. Bitfocus Companion sends the right commands to the lighting desk, the media server and sound at once, so departments stay in sync and nobody has to chase a cue.
- Graphics from live dataFor FPG CS, teammate Alexander and I built a title controller. Pick two teams and the Map Veto and Next Map scenes assemble themselves: logos, picked maps, CT sides, map score and best map.
- Scripting and HUDA large set of Lua scripts in PIXERA runs the show logic, and the in-game HUD reaches the screens from OBS workstations.
