Light Show - Tank - The Seatbelts

Updated: Scroll Down for Inventory

A light show that was put together for the Bucknell Deptartment of Theatre and Dance's Open House in late August 2007. I put a lot of hard work and programming time in to this, and am pleased with the results. However, for you technical minded folks like myself, you will notice that at least two of the scrollers stopped working in the middle of the show. Enjoy Soundlight's latest monster. I pre-vis'd the show in Wysiwyg, made some minor changes to the rig upon arriving back at school, and then cued it.

Rig:
ETC Obsession 600 (Upgraded to 750 channels)
ETC Obsession Moving Light Designers' Remote
6x Intellabeam 700HX
2x Rosco I-Cue in a Source Four with Smart Move rotators
Stacks of Source Four Pars - ACL (Clear Flat) lenses on most
Lots of 26 degree Source Fours with gobos
10 Apollo Smart Color Scrollers
DF-50 Hazer

hey mate your dimmer rack for your parcans is running on DMX isn't it?

[soundlight]

@shuffle953 Yes, everything in the rig is running on DMX. The dimmer rack is on the first universe of DMX and all of the automated stuff (scanners, scrollers, etc) is on the second universe of DMX.

It is a great Light show.

Which movingheads do they use ??

[soundlight]

No moving head fixtures were used, just moving mirror fixtures. There's an equipment list in the description if you're interested.

very cool way of using those s-4's. Are you not a fan of moving heads? so far i havnt seen any of them in your videos....that i can see. Did you use the 26 to go mor narrow with the beams so they are better highlighted? why not 19's? What power source are you running? stage power? if so how many tails/ phases? awesome show!

[soundlight]

If I had moving heads I'd totally use them! The only moving lights that we own are the Intellabeams. In the "Planetarium" show, there are 4x VL3000 that we rent for the dance concerts. 2 downstage and 2 upstage. I can't remember if they were 26s or 19s honestly, I didn't do a gear list for this show at the time. Just after the fact looking back at a pic of the rig. Dimming came from the installed dimmer racks, and power for the movers came from our side-stage three phase panel.
