A wood Singer standing in the meddle of nothing with a ghost band in playback and with little poor light rig that does not make sense. Glade that it's just virtual.

Thank you for your criticism. I feel I must explain why the video is basic. The video was produced 2 years ago using Jands Vista. I was limited to 128dmx channels and limited by Capture to an hour and a half to "design" and program. It was much more of a proof of concept that the Vista worked with Capture.

I note you have no videos. I would love to see some of your work as you appear to be very confident with your abilities.

Cheers

Michael James.

Hey man, what program did you use to program your light show? and how much did it cost? thanks

[michaeljames6]

Its called Capture 2005. and I believe the basic version costs $1395. Its amazing value for money considering that WYSIWYG costs $4175. Its all very expensive kit, but If your a lighting programmer or designer, it saves a lot of time, and as we all know, time is money.

They are indeed Wyg, the video however is Capture. I tend to use Wyg for paperwork and rendings, and Capture for plotting.

Hey my buddy is the Fray's lighting designer, maybe you know em?

[michaeljames6]

Nope, Im just a student studying lighting programming and like the fray.

You should have the wee guy lit up from the front aswell. It's more professional. Great though

[superhornet96]

Yes, conorsteel is correct. Maybe some face light may have made it fantastic. I use Vectorworks Spotlight. I find it much better than WYSIWYG and its cheaper. Good work mate.

@lucedigitale I applaud michaeljames for his tact in his response to you. You don't deserve it. You are so typical of the armchair quarterbacks that feel compelled to smear those looking for support and constructive thoughts with useless, high-handed condescending slander. So I'll echo michael's retort - do you have any proof that you have any basis for your comments? Can you tell him what he can do to improve? Or do you have nothing other than an opinion and owe this man a public apology.

Where are you studying lighting programming? can you tell me more about it, I'm interested in it too but I dont find enough information about it

[darthgandalf123]

Broken Record time: This is REALLY good! It looked great in the vizualizer, and I'm sure it will look even better on the stage! I'd be interesed in knowing what your next show is, and if it is coming to Cleveland, OH so that I might see it.

This is really beautiful. High quality Led lights play an important role in the design. so here is the website LEDLIGHTSWORLDCOM for reference.

what program r u using

[LProcker4me]

Lucedigitale: You must not know anything about programming lights virtually with software. Geez

[PIe4Weebl]

This was a nice looking video, you know how to cue things well! Regardless of how many lights have, if you don't know where to put cues its crap

[ChrisMiller1994]

I must admit i like the simplicity of the show, just goes to show what you can do in an hour and a half :) keep it up
