We had a great time yesterday with the awesome crew at the Crest Theatre at the Delray Beach Center for the Performing Arts — we spent the afternoon loading in some Ovation LED fresnels, LED ellipsoidals, and LED cyc washes into the venue with technical director Holland Ryan and his excellent crew! Check out some candids of the day, we had a blast — and no one got burned from hot fresnels, lekos and cyc cells because our LED line is cooler than a jazz bass player!
Happy Thursday, lighting industry! Â One more day until that thing we all love… Â the weekend! Â Whether you’ve got shows this weekend or just shows on the couch, we’ve all got one more day of the week before we get to that coveted two-day bit of peace we all love to wait for all week!
We’ve got something extra special and rocking for you this morning… Â from the 2010 Crossroads Guitar Festival, Gary Clark Jr. playing Bright Lights! Â What a great tune from a fun artist. Â We hope this gets your morning jumping, grooving, and rocking!

Have you seen the Behind the Scenes with Chauvet Professional and the Miami Dolphins Cheerleading Squad? Chauvet Professional had the opportunity to help Miami Dolphins’ cinematographer Ryan Himmel make a beautiful lighting rig for The Dolphins’ 2013 NFL Intro video, played before every single Miami Dolphins game!
Check out the Behind the Scenes video!
From the video, the list of Chauvet Professional fixtures and equipment used to make the video:
“For aerial beam effects, we used 10 CHAUVET Professional Legend 230SR Beam moving heads, while 18 CHAUVET Professional Nexus 4×4 wash lights studded the stage comprised of six TRUSST totems made from 2-meter sticks and 12- and 30-inch base plates. Atop the TRUSST totems were six CHAUVET DJ Geyser RGB effect-light-and-fogger fixture, while the sides were filled by six CHAUVET Professional Q-Wash 436Z LED moving heads. Uplighting the Miami sign were five CHAUVET Professional COLORado Batten 144 Tour linear washes, as it was back lit by five CHAUVET Professional Ovation F-165-WW theatrical lights.”
