TSM08 Project - Rising Revolve

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.

Links

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

  • 1m diameter revolving stage, within a 1220mm x 1220mm (4` x 4`) deck.
  • Ideal for locating 1 or several within a larger stage
  • For use with stage heights from 200mm to 1m
  • Weight loadings from 175Kg to 3000Kg
  • Remote speed/direction control
  • Finishes and coverings available on request


COSTING
