Film Alley

Terrell, TX

ABOUT FILM ALLEY

Established in 1926, Film Alley operates three locations in Texas, offering family-friendly entertainment. Film Alley goes beyond the traditional movie theater experience by featuring inviting dining areas, bars, bowling lanes, arcades, and a variety of private event rooms, all equipped with audio and visual capabilities. Each spacious facility is outfitted with large TVs throughout, allowing patrons to enjoy video content from anywhere in the venue.

Enhancing Independent and Collective Zone Experiences

Although each zone operates independently, the speaker system was required to offer the ability to provide coverage collectively across all areas while also allowing for the flexibility to isolate specific zones for private events. This setup enables tailored music and audio playback from the system or video feeds. Furthermore, the speakers needed to blend seamlessly into the surroundings, preserving the fun atmosphere without the distraction of bulky equipment.

Crafting Comprehensive Audio Solutions:

Film Alley's Terrell Location

For the Film Alley location in Terrell, TX, local technology specialists SAVE Electronics were engaged to design a system that catered to the project's unique requirements. With multiple entertainment areas needing audio solutions—including the parking lot, lobby, film room, arcade, bar, bowling lanes, and event rooms—it was a challenge to equip each space with sufficient speakers to provide comprehensive sound coverage tailored to each experience. Given the height and expansive square footage of the facility, ensuring reliable and even audio distribution was a top priority for the audio system.

SAVE Electronics Integration with Sonance Audio

The project integrator, SAVE Electronics, is committed to delivering seamless A/V and automation systems that are easy for clients to operate. Their goal is for clients to enjoy the experience without worrying about the technical details. Ultimately, the team chose to utilize Sonance’s performance and design for the project’s audio needs.

Strategic Speaker Placement at Film Alley

To ensure optimal coverage for the project, Sonance engineers collaborated to determine the ideal height and placement for each speaker. The sleek, minimalistic design of the pendant and surface-mounted speakers allows them to blend seamlessly into the open ceiling spaces throughout the facility. This setup creates a fully immersive audio experience that surrounds Film Alley guests as they engage in various activities, whether it's watching a movie in the film room, dining with friends, or bowling while enjoying the big game.
