"The theatre wanted a lantern that could be used quickly in any space and directly connected to a lighting console. Because of all the control electronics being built in, the chosen fixture had to be able to match the white balance with their existing tungsten lanterns so everything was homogenous. After test driving the unit in their theatre and seeing how simple and quickly the Source 4 LED Lustr+ and Cyc's slotted in with their existing lighting - they knew this was the perfect unit for them" commented Neal Tomlinson, business development manager, Stage Electrics.
The Source4 LED Lustr+ can be positioned at low level safely due to the reduced amount of heat omitted. With added flexibility and easy setup, with no additional len

This venue can accommodate up to 1000 guests for ceremonies, receptions, serviced or buffet dinners, dancing and entertainment and is independently owned by Neer Schaffer, Ohad Segal and Omer Segal. It has recently invested in a completely new lighting rig including 84 x Robe Pointes and eight LEDWash 600s, an installation which helps set it apart from other wedding venues around the globe.

In addition to the airport's focus on innovative architecture, high-quality finish materials and optimized infrastructure, Moscow-based STK Heliocity was brought in to develop a unique combination of architectural and artistic lighting for multiple scenarios: everyday usage, night time usage, and holidays/special occasions.

Heliocity's design features traditional symbols, multiple colour transitions - in the style of the Belgorod region's coat of arms (azure to green an

The concept for the show sees four male contestants being put through their paces in a series of fun games and challenges, each time revealing more and more about their personalities.
At the same time 40 girls from the studio audience will decide which guy they like the most and stand in his line. The guy with the most girls in his line will then get to choose his favourite girl to take out on a date.

MA Lighting consoles have been the console of choice for Village Roadshow Theme Parks since 2009 and fortunately they could meet this brief with one grandMA2 light, one MA onPC command wing and one MA onPC fader wing.

The arrangement was driven by Josef Valchar Robe s.r.o.'s CEO, Ashley Lewis, Robe UK's key account manager for film, TV & theatre and Matt Prentice, head of lighting at RADA.
RADA has taken delivery of a number of different Robe moving light products from Robe's current ranges which were selected by Matt as especially appropriate to theatre productions, following a visit to Robe's HQ in the Czech Republic.
The equipment includes DLS Profiles, DLF Washes and LEDWash600s, together with two of the new MMX Blades - all from Robe's Robin series.
There is an emphasis on LED technology and all the benefits that brings to both designers and venues, coupled with features that are essential for theatrical performance like framing shutters and barn doors.

The BeamNET units are designed as easy-to-use solutions to provide additional effects to stages and big shows, without the need of complex control and setup: All BeamNET systems can easily be triggered through DMX/Artnet and allow easy control of every single laser source. The BeamNET Series can be integrated to an existing light show with every kind of common light desks.
As the BeamNET addresses professional applications, the power supply was standardised - and all units get powered through a PoE switch. This means only one LAN cable transports power and control signal. No

An international brand, with 154 locations including New York, Sydney, Hollywood and Hong Kong as well as London, Madame Tussauds gives guests the chance to get up close to some of the world's most famous stars - combining glitz and glamour with history.

Brit Floyd has performed to over one million fans around the world since its first show in Liverpool in 2011. Lighting design is by Dave Hill, who has been designing Brit Floyd for years and incorporates the Platinum 5Rs into the trademark Pink Floyd arch and circle light show.
"The Platinum Beam 5R's do most of the big effects and are situated around the circle and on the trusses above," Dave states of the narrow 2.5 degree ACL-type beam effect that can project 12 colours and houses rotating gobos, all in a small package. "I particularly like t
Parnelli-nominated Maker has worked with the band since 2009 and his visual starting point for this tour was based on four different backdrop reveals throughout the set - a budget-friendly strategy to bring multi-layered looks and maximum dynamics to the stage and the pacey set. The set also includes semi-transparent riser ramps which are under-lit.
It is the first time that Maker has used Pointes on a tour, so beforehand he researched the fixtures ex

On the stage itself, part of the video wall is used as a sliding reveal for the artists' entrances while the TV dynamic is continued in the design of the stairs, the independent stage thrust and the hi-gloss flooring.

This was Sherwin's second world tour for the band who have earned much critical acclaim for their incendiary live performances and won the 2013 Q Award for Best Live Act. Lighting was an integral part of the show and lead singer Yannis Philippakis in particular had some very clear ideas about how certain things should look.
The look and feel of the UK tour, which culminated in two sold out nights at London's Alexandra Palace, was an evolution of their summer festival floor lighting package which was highly effective and presented with Sherwin's characteristic imagination, style and flair.
