Lens Screen.

The original idea was to attach a piece of BP screen to the back of the metal frame however due to the thickness of the frame we would have been unable to tension the screen properly so we decided that it would be best if the screen was hung on the bar behind the Lens frame thus allowing us to tension the screen.

False pros.

Hard masking wedges.

Doorframe.

Perspex trucks.

Due to the weight of the perspex sheets the trucks are front heavy so some stage weights are required to ensure the trucks do not tip over. They also have fixed casters to try and ensure the tucks only move in a straight line.

Video

Video Content Designer - Ruth Darling

Head of Video/Programmer - Craig Stevenson

We controlled Video for this show using the MacPro running the Catalyst Media Server and being programmed and operated using MA2 onPC with Command Wing via ARTNET. Originally, the system was going to be tied in to the lighting console via MANet using the same show file. However, in the end, the system was completely separated and Video had its own show file and control platform.
