Gear/Show Picture Thread

[Eyeherion]

Some thing notably absent from this site (I think) is a picture thread of all the gear everyone is using. And photos of the best results and shows you've done.

If ya fancy it, post up, I for one wanna see what everyone is up to
and what you're using.

Cheers

This is the rig we used for Danny Rampling at Cream on Saturday at the Q Club in Brum.

Notice the 2 bottles of soft drinks, we're so hardcore!

A rig I'm using more and more as requests for multiple screen shows seems to be on the increase.

1 at times 2 DVJ X1's
2 Edirol V4's
1 Edirol CG8 which feeds both V4s getting some interesting effects utilising the V4's effects.
2 laptops running a combination or Arkaos with an Oxygen8 keyboard, MDT and Derivative Touch Mixer
various monitors and a Kramer 6x6 matrix.
Out of shot 2 IR cams in the booth area or Hi quality cams supplied by various companies.

What was the project exactly? How many cams did ya run?
Ooodles of monitors.It was a Madness gig at the o2 dome (millennium dome) london. I wasn't really working on it (just hanging out drinking beer) so i'm not 100% sure of the number of cameras... if my hazy memory is correct they had 2 roaming stage cameras, 3 or 4 cameras with long lenses up in the audience (the show was in the round on a revolving stage!) and maybe 3 or so lock offs. all running on SDI into the PPU - Directed by Jools Hogg with Graphics (VJing) by Mark Scarratt - graphics content was produced by Tim Flemming. Tim was controlling the LED strip which runs round the arena.

what the stage looked like:-

projectors were 4x christie roadie 25k (one screen on each side of the stage)

It's kind of hard to remember the precise details of cameras and kit used as the 2 big racks are not reconfigured for different gigs

Anyway it's a fairly standard setup for an arena show - the dvjs and laptop playback are slightly unusual - normal at gigs that size it would just be the PPU racks and camera mixing.

he's generally not allowed to give too many details of the things he does but sometimes shows that may (or may not) have quite a lot to do with him turn up on industry websites (eg http://livedesignonline.com/theatre/cirque_du_soleil_wintuk_0101/ )
