"The impression combines high light output with very low power consumption, which is of great importance on tours with very variable lighting sets," Loose explained. "The lightness of these compact moving heads was of crucial importance on this tour, since all the lighting equipment had to be packed into a single trailer attached to the tour bus; with 24 conventional washlights that would have been unthinkable."
Loose mounted the moving heads in a 6 x 4 matrix on three dollies. "Thanks to the impression's rapid pan/tilt movement, it was possible to create highly effective kinetic effects even in the matrix," added the designer. The luminaires were controlled from a Chamsys console.
