Just from the immediate pictures, this article really caught my little lighting eye. When it comes to lighting fixtures, I am a huge nerd about it and could probably tell you the type of fixture just by looking at it. So when I saw the title mentioned GLP I got pretty excited because of their other amazing fixtures. As the designer describes his choices with the different fixtures, I was able to piece them with the picture above. The design is amazing, the geometric beams that appear to be cascading together as well as the multi-level design of different planes of fixtures is truly astonishing. The ability to have pixel control on the X4 Bars gives the designer such great versatility to create pin-pointed effects and detailed, almost video like lighting. It’s always fun to read about designers who have a preference to certain lighting companies, as some designers still swear by Vari*Lite. Lighting Designer, Ed Warren, truly did an incredible job on this tour and I will probably look into some of their other work because of this article.
Wow! I think I’ve seen something like this circulate around the internet but I Think it is really cool to read it about it here! ! I think this product is really useful, especially for a scenic designer, but also for lighting designers as well to get that perfect color. I think the color is really interesting because it can affect the mood so much. I also like that it is so cool and the pictures of the production look awesome! . I love it when new tech comes out for creatives because it just helps us make our visions more accurately on the stage. Also, I thought it was interesting to see the observations other commenters made. I thought that for those who cannot see color well or are color blind, this kind of tool might be incredibly helpful. It allows them to pick out colors on things they want to emulate (green grass, hospital white walls, natural wood) even if they can’t see it well. It also probably helps someone like me who isn’t very deft with colors.
