Robe moving lights were once again at the hub of the lighting action for a Main Stage design by Johan Ferreira from JSF Productions at the 2012 Innibos Festival in South Africa.
The four day arts and culture extravaganza, held in Nelspruit at the Bergvlam School Grounds, was attended by 120,000 people. Technical production for the Main and Klipdrift stages was supplied by Martindale.
The Robe fixtures totalled 52, a mix of ROBIN 600 LEDWashes, ROBIN 600E Beams, ColorSpot 700E AT and 250E ATs and Scan 575 XTs. The ROBIN 600 Beams were positioned on the first three LX trusses in a V shape, with the ColorSpot 700E ATs also flown above the stage. In addition, the LEDWash 600s were rigged on the front truss and used for general stage lighting, while the ColorSpot 250s were scattered around the deck and utilised for assorted back-lighting effects.
“As I have said before, it feels like every Robe fixture was designed and built by an LD. It all works properly, the colour mixing is fantastic and the general output is unmatched,” explained Ferreira.
