Lighting equipment:
Lighting Engineer - André
Most equipment used is computer controlled via the DMX512 standard.
The size of the venue, i.e. the bands playing area, governs the amount of lights that the band can realistically use, also the amount of power available. With over 2000* beams of light in a multitude of colours, the computerised lighting system, using the latest intelligent lighting systems, which is also being added to on a regular basis, certainly helps create a show that is both memorable and does the band justice in trying to provide that Pink Floyd experience.

I have just obtained 2 new laser animation projectors. They are NRG RGB and RGY system. I will put some pictures up soon. Take a look at a few of the graphics I have created below for the new lasers.
They are all animated. The Just Floyd logo does various things. The prism starts of as the prism then the light beam comes in from the left strikes the prism and the coloured light comes out the other side. The burning man has moving flames and they shake hands. This is just the start, more to come and you will need to come to a show to see what I have done.
Below is shown an approximate layout of our lighting rig, this is shown on a 6m x 4m stage. Actual layout of lights and what lights used will depend on stage size/shape and power available.
