Main Idea
For my project I have decided to research a rising revolve - something like the Pride rock in the "Lion King" Lion King video. But I'm going to scale it down a lot. My idea is to have a build up stage with steel desk and have the revolve in the middle, which would mean I would need to build some arc rostra around the revolve.
Revolve Costings
Here are just a few sites I found which hire out different size revolves, and hiring prices...
The Revolve Staging Company This is probably the best one I've found:
REVOLVING PLINTHS
- Slightly larger,
- ideal for revolving up to 2 persons,
- range from 700mm-1000mm in diameter,
- overall height 170mm - 600mm,
- supplied in finish of your choice,
Finishes include:
- Loop nylon covered ( large colour choice)
- Stretch lycra covered ( 7 colour choice)
- Painted flat colours
- Painted custom artwork
- Green/blue screen finish (chroma key green, optic blue etc.)
Revolving Plinths are 240v, have variable speeds between 0.1 rpm - 3rpm and direction control.
OR
THE SPIN BOX

- Ideal for locating 1 or several within a larger stage
